One! International Gala 2014 – Believe
I am going to skip a number of Blogs I’ve been wanting to post and take you directly to the One! International Gala 2014 – Theme: Believe, that was held on 24 January 2014 in Edmonton.
The volunteers who made the evening a huge success.
I will share with you some pictures and videos that hopefully will make you feel you were there with us, or if you were an attendee, I hope you enjoy reliving the evening.
The first thing I will share is a video that was done by Shaw TV for a series they are doing on ‘Galas and Giving’. Ours was the first in the series. We think they did an incredible job of capturing all the important features of the evening and the work being done in India.

Now you have a small taste of what the evening was like.
The beautiful young ladies who danced for the guests.
Two videos were shown highlighting India, the students, teachers and work being done by One! International.
The first video shows highlights from One! International in India over several months in 2013.
[The video is accompanied by the song “Rainbow Connection” sung by Kermit the Frog (Jim Henson). The song was published in 1979 (Fuzzy Muppet Songs), Label Atlantic(1979) Walt Disney. Writers Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher.]The second video was the highlight of the evening. The children and staff at the two schools in Mumbai India, share with you what they believe in. Their words are very powerful.

explains to me that having faith in someone that he will never let your
feelings and respect towards him to die.
And he will never let his thoughts wasted. One part of belief is also to trust someone
with respect that he will never cheat you in anything in anytime or anywhere in
your whole life.
belief. When a baby comes in the world
he only knows his mother and he only believes in her. When he get to the age of 5-10 he gets the
idea about his father and other relatives and then he is able to trust or
believe them. When he is in the teen age he makes his own
friends and spends time wand after home time he is able to decide that with
which friend should respect and with whom he have to only keep relations of
work. Because at that time the knowledge
of belief and faith develops through his mind.
Then after he goes for any work he is able to decide with which people
he has to maintain relativeness and work with them. The knowledge of belief
should be good at this time because at this time the people try to cheat
him. Therefore, if he will belive on the
right peoples he will only meet to the path of success.
because that they will always encourage, help and try their best to fulfill my
requirements. Because they always take
care about what I want and love me very much.
Along with them, I also belive in my teachers and elders that they will
help me to solve every future problem that will come on me. Because they always teach me to face many difficult
conditions in life and always encourage me to progress tin life. The teachings in my school will help me to
spend my whole life with smartness.
Because I would be aware of those things which will occur in my
surroundings. And I would be able to make
changes that I can.
to whom I think that they are best. I
belive that they will never cheat or leave me in difficult conditions because
they help me to solve my problems which I have and if they are unable to do it
they try their best towards it.
is so much beautiful and just when I put my step in the Natural Environment I
feel refreshed and very happy. I think
that I make my house among these trees, flowers and beautiful mountains. I want to thank that great man or organism
who made such a beautiful place and I feel myself very fortunate that I am born
in this world as a human being.
