WORLD INSPIRATION DAY #WID

The world has 365 days of a year to cherish every emotion possible. Still people have assigned certain specific days for celebrating special occasions. Different countries celebrate their independence days, republic days and region specific functions on particular days. However as a global audience all of us celebrate those days that are common to the entire world which influence every human being because all homo-sapiens share the same set of feelings and emotions.
 
When there can be a day to express Love to your Love on the occasion of Valentine's day, a day to express love towards your mother on the occasion of Mother's day, a day to celebrate Christmas, a day to mark international Human Rights, a day for women, a day to spread awareness about AIDS, a day to celebrate Merit (June 30) then there must be a day to share a message of inspiration, to do something inspiring, to make inspiring things happen, to energize others and that day is termed and celebrated as WORLD INSPIRATION DAY on 23rd of April every year! It was the day Inspiration Unlimited Vision was first conceived.
 
Life is a roller-coaster ride for every one of us. No one loves to suffer, yet all of us are made to, sometimes either due to the mistakes of self while other times due to the errors of the environment. Problems and hurdles are the part and parcel of the game called LIFE. No matter what, each one of us has to battle through the setbacks and failures to realize the highest purpose of our lives. There are those lucky few out there who bounce back after every boulder of uncertainty strikes them and leaves them shattered. They are the real leaders who go on to lead the globe. However, the majority who stay shattered could have reached the light at the end of the tunnel, courtesy, a little Inspiration. While they are being hit by the avalanche of issues of life, there needs to be hope and scope to uplift their lives and this can happen only when there is a possibility of solutions. The foundation of this possibility is inspiration. If people aren't inspired action doesn’t happen. Hence, inspiration is a must.
 
Amidst the countless number of problems that are thumping down the spirit of living itself amongst people, it has become the ultimate necessity to reawaken the energy of life in the world. Though it’s believed that people need to be energetic, enthusiastic, motivated and inspired throughout the year, not everyone can be, courtesy, the energy sapping nature of people around us. Hence, to respect and celebrate that day of the year that can trigger the inspiration to sustain the optimism and fighting spirit throughout and make it memorable, enters into the records of world history a day named as WORLD INSPIRATION DAY on 23rd of April.
 
This day shall remark the day responsible to pay homage to all those industrious people who have left a legacy of inspiration for each one of us alive to follow. This day shall be the standing ovation to all those world leaders who are inspiring stories that inspire their contemporaries. This day shall serve as the womb to all those inspirational legends of the future, who will decide and take immediate action to lead an empowering life influencing and inspiring the masses around.
 
To commemorate the victories of the past, celebrate the achievements of the present and cherish the visions of the future, we shall celebrate the WORLD INSPIRATION DAY on 23rd of April every year. This day embarks the significance of the requirement of inspiration in every arena of life. This day gives a chance to every person of the globe to blink at all the pressures of life and wink away into the era of inspiration. Every one of us has the right to live a fulfilling life and accomplish all our dreams, goals and visions. Each one of us has the right to stay inspired. Let’s celebrate the WORLD INSPIRATION DAY to awaken the dreamer in us who shall walk every extra mile possible to make this world truly a better place to live in.

IUNPB@VVN

IUNPB - IUNewsPaperBag project is a simple idea which believes in reduce plastics campaign. It is our small step towards a greener earth for our future generations. We promote a very simple solution to eradicate plastic bags usage by promoting the use of paper bags made from old newspapers. You can participate in our project by registering on http://www.iunewspaperbag.com/. All Indians can feel proud that this project which originated from Bangalore is one of the top projects listed under One Young World,
 


It was a special occasion on 14th of February, 2013 to celebrate the IUNPB project at a college level where in students of VVN degree college, Bangalore participated in making IUnewspaperbags. Feb 14th being a Valentine's Day, these students considered environment as their valentine and invested their precious 90 minutes in making IUnewspaperbags. There were more than 120 students who participated in this mega campaign. Prasanna Udipikar mam was the teacher coordinator who got this campaign happen in the college. She was supported by the principal and staff of VVN. The event kicked off sharp at 3:15 pm and closed by 5:00 pm during which these students had made 60+ IUnewspaperbags. At the end of the event all students were really happy that they had learnt a new art by which not only their creativity improved but also the environment was saved from getting polluted by plastic bags.
 
I was very happy to have been the project lead for this entire event and was enjoying every trip of mine into each of the classes cheering up the students with energy and enthusiasm. The feedback from both the teachers and the students was simply fantastic. I should also be thanking all the VVN college volunteers along with Beena Chowdry, Ankita, Soundarya, Mr. Anant, Amit and Mohan Kumar who had come from different colleges to support this campaign. One more milestone was achieved as this was the first campaign where foldable type of IUnewspaperbags were made at a large scale.
