‘Brotherly Love’ was the message we had for the kids of Tripura yesterday. We visited Girlstown in Madambakkam, the Boystown in Selaiyur and then traveled to the other side of Chennai to Gumudipundi Boystown. It was an all day love and cake fest!
The annual day is thought of for ‘lovers’ only but we reminded the kids how much love that people (their supporters both financial and through good wishes) have for them. Love for No Reason– just because that is part of being a good human being.
The girls sang some Tamil Love Songs, the Selaiyur Boystown demonstrated their Mind Sound classes that they do daily, and their in house cricket team posed proudly for pictures and went off to play a game. The boys from Gumudipundi also demonstrated the MST and gave us an impromptu dance performance the when we left the country-side property the boys lined both sides of the driveway and showered us with pink flowers. We can still feel the LOVE form all the ‘Kidstowns’!
Happy Valentine’s Day to All of Our HoPE Friends!
