Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Kindness at the Utthan Picnic

After many years I had been to a picnic in India on July 6, 2024. My very first picnic with more than 100 people and Utthan Family members as well. Three-hour ride each way was very comfortable. Some members were dancing in the bus. It was a very long day. but I did not get tired. My battery was recharged. We started from Utthan by bus at 7.30 a.m. and returned around 9 p. m.

I am gratful to Mr. N of Utthan who helped me find rikshaw leading me with care.

After reaching “Swarg Maru Gaam” (It mean Heaven is my village), some members got horse ride and bullock cart ride. I abstain, for, I didn’t want to be a part of animal cruelty. Weather was very comfortable. Couple of thunder storms were forecast but what we got was sprincles for a few seconds. I thank Sai Baba for that.

I enjoyed playing musical chair. I got relaxed watching other members playing, cricket, swmming in the swmming pool playing with the balls and ring I gifted.

I told the manager, intense positive thinking story, Fatemah Story, about my quote card project and how sister Mindy helped send them to many countries of the world. I gave bunch of quote cards, peace dove quote card and bookmarks to the manager to share with others. We exchanged phone numbers. I gave him one large Quote card that he hanged on the wall immediately.

I also told intensive positive thinking story and Fatemah story to a family and gave bunch of quote cards and bookmarks.

I gave many quote cards to other Utthan family members.

We celebrated one Utthan family member’s Birthday. I made personalized Happy Birthday card for her.

I also told intense positive story to Utthan staff in the bus.

I gave a box of homemade Date-Nuts Sweets that they enjoyed eating.

I am grateful to Sri Sathya Sai Baba for all the opportunities sending my way and His help and
