I am glad that today I was part of something worthwhile... other than the 'normal' routine! It was the launch of the Action 2015 campaign. Thanks to Fr Palli for making it possible. He landed up here last night saying that he intended to meet the deputy Chief Minister of the Telangana State and petition him as part of launching the campaign. To his luck and my fortune, he decided to step in here in our own community after his lunch in the neighbouring JMJ college, where something was already done on stage.
This special situation, at least created awareness among us in the community that there was such a campaign being initiated and that we could at least be witnesses to the same... if not be at the forefront of it.
Fr Palli's comments about how we Salesians take a back-bench attitude for such global campaigns surely have a great amount of truth in them. While we should have been at the forefront of such worldwide movements, we are no where in sight...
