Summer of 2011 – I was in India, and found an opportunity to
volunteer at the school, and serve the visually impaired.
I was warmly embraced by Sister Margaret, and was
assigned to help teach music to these children. Jessie
madam was the music teacher in charge, and was extremely
supportive of me.
I started to teach flute, harmonica (mouth organ), and
keyboard.
I soon realized that the children had tremendous potential
and were extremely fast learners; we were breezing through
lessons, song after song.
The sky was the limit for these “Children of God,” as my
mom called them. They had a “Sixth Sense,” if you will, which
made up for their impairment.

The children had tremendous focus and grasping power, and
most of the times, I was in awe of them. They showed
tremendous discipline, and their eagerness to learn was
abundant.
I soon began to develop special bonds with my Little Flower
Friends.
Before long, I became their “Abhinav Anna!”
Sister Margaret used to come into the room and join us in
session. She loved listening to the new tunes the children
belted out.
I look forward to working with and teaching more music to my
friends in the summer of 2013.
