How about something different??

Generally we NRIs when visit India, most of us think of doing bulk Indian shopping, throwing show off parties, meeting friends and relatives. Some people will even visit some places as tourists also. Few of us would even plan doing some advanced courses or training programs as it is cheaper there. Now a days many of us are into investemnets in India where real estate is at it's peak...Is that all life means??
We talk so great about the system in abroad and people's awareness and confidence over there. Why don't we initilize few things which can be roots for some good change. Though the time is always the major constraint we can do something. This is possible only if we think differently. How??
How about doing something different aprat from routine shopping and parties. Like visting the scool/college/university which ever is close by. We will definetely get enormous satisfaction. Shake hand with the students ..do some chit chat..meanwhile try to talk something good about India and our greatness of the culture.. Defitely they will listen to us. It will an exposure to them. It is always not possible to see and learn things by own..sometimes hearing to other's experiences is also a good knowledge resource.
We can do this even with gathering small groups of local community and sharing some the things we have learnt like healthy eating, screening programs for pregenant women, aged and cancer awreness, various alternative therapies etc...
This is just begining. If everybody starts doing this...wow..there will be a considerable change.
