To see differently

Apple's Think Different campaign: "Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes ... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. ... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things. ... They push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the people who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do."

Sparsha Trust's Shikshana Mitra-2
Via Flickr:
Sparsha Trust (sparsha.org/) is a non-profit organization working in the areas of education, employability, health and self sustenance especially in Rural Contexts.
Shikshana Mitra-2 is a center run by Sparsha Trust behind Manyata Techpark, Near Nagavara Circle, Bangalore. At this center, the trust is working to provide children shelter, and seeks to provide the children with basic education and bring them to the educational mainstream.
Alongwith fellow IBMers, I spent a few hours, on Saturday the 25th, at this center and was amazed at the talent and knowledge with the children.
