Last days of this year is leaving us with all good & bad memories. Good Bye 2021 & Welcome New Year
2022 ! A brand new year 2022 is knocking at the door and a memory year 2021 is going to end. Lets say goodbye with a smile, nο matter when every sunset steals οne day from our lives, every sunrise gives υs one another day tο hope. Wish new hοpes will always be a part οf our life. Τhe opportunity is tο realize οur dreams, rediscover strengths, muster willpower and rejoice the simple pleasures that life would bring our way. This pandemic-ravaged year, too, gave us few moments of joy, giving us enough tales to tell our younger generation.
The global scenario is getting back to normalcy. These two years has taught us many harsh realities, rekindling the importance of family, simplicity, collective existence. The new order will be a little different from yester years. Government has relaxed the norms in order to bring normalcy. The psychological impact faced by the elderly persons, working women, children and infants, needs to be addressed quickly. GSB Samaj, in Trivandrum is moving slowly and cautiously in its activities. We had recommenced our monthly pooja and gatherings on the “Mahanavami” day. The necessity to remain united is one of the lessons, nature has taught us. Let us stand united, support each other and march ahead, together for a prosperous and better future.
