The realization

               With the accomplishment of the actions I realized that nothing is easy. We have to work hard to acquire fulfilment. We have to strive to get to the top. With this project and the success of  doing the creative actions we have put out  I realized that work s meaningless without appreciation. It was not easy talking at the top of your lungs and shouting thinking that half of the people don’t really care.

 It was a nightmare to think that half of the people who heard us didn’t even listen, a nightmare to think that half of those people who saw us didn't even bother to look, and half of the people thought that we were doing this for fun or because we had nothing to do. But then I learnt halfway as we did the actions, that appreciating the other half of the people who cared, the other half who stopped, looked and listened, the other half who took us seriously,  and even some who saluted us. was the greatest achievement throughout the project. If I hadn’t realized that being grateful is a very important factor then I would’ve thought that this project was a total failure.

            Another thing I realized was that UNITY not only makes the work easy but also brings out the best in each one of you. When I saw my group mates do the best they could to convince people to not litter, spit or smoke, when I saw the effort my group mates put in to this project, I had to be the best that I could be. I had to give everything I could give. Because I thought if I didn’t do that it was as if I didn’t help and that would be embarrassing. It would look as if I depended on them for the grade. If each one of us had the same thought, then surely there was unity. And here we practiced to bring out the best in each one of us. 

           Truly this project has made each one of us better. We realized after sometime that this wasn't just a project, It was a time for us to get together and have fun. Throughout the project we  never thought of this as a waste of time.

            So with this, We give thanks first of all to our great father up above for the continuous blessings and for keeping us safe as we did the project. Next, we thank our teacher in A.P III for this project. If it wasn't for this project we would have never spent time with each other and get to know each other more. Thank you dear parents and friends for the support you portrayed throughout the making of this project. And lastly, Thank you to all the people who stopped, who looked and listened :)
