August is the month when patriotism is all in the air and it brings before us the memories of the struggles our freedom fighters went through to make India a free country. On the 14th of August we shared the joy of freedom with the inmates of Dharwad Prison. It was organized by the Shanti Pragati Kendra, a centre for social work run by the Sisters of Charity.We put up a skit on the life of St Maximilian Kolbe stressing on the life of sacrifice that the great saint lived. The skit moved those who were witnessing it and was appreciated by the Bishop for its message and presentation. We returned with the thought "to condemn the sin and not the sinner." Yes, we are free here to build this nation and let us contribute by living our lives meaningfully.
