Today was my first day begging in South Mumbai. It has been a strange, crazy and hard day. After being begging for 7 to 8 hours to almost 1000 people on the street this is what I got, 307 ₹, and you can see who gave the money was people who have few money, people who is selling or working on the street or as a taxi driver.
What is sad for me is the fact that educate people don't even have time to listen to what I was trying to explain , when I tried to talk they said sorry or looked at me in a strange way. I don't understand why they are behaving like this, but I will do it with the time. After all the day in the street I came home , I went to meet the builder with one angel called Bharti, who is trying to make the price down from builders. I hope they will low down the price of the place for the cafe dream after this meeting.
I went to meet another angel whose name is Fatima Dsouza. She has been helping me for the last 2 years, I spoke to her the day I found the place, I said "ma'm please help me, get me some loan or donation" and she told me "Amin my pray and help is with you everyday". Today she called me and gave me from her friend 5000 ₹ cheque and 5000 ₹ cash from herself, and not only this, she did a special pray for my dream cafe. I am so lucky I have few ANGELS who are really helping me a lot, I hope all this good energy will bring this good place for the café.
What I want is to make the life of my street children, who believe in this project or who ever want to work, better and at the same time to make another lives better too. Thanks to all this people who are angels for this project
I AM BECAUSE OF YOU
