Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I was thinking for a long time I had to do something adventurous in life and was getting ready in my mind. But always not ready physically. One fine weekend we said that we are going to do it and asked couple of more friends who joined as well and went online and booked for the same before the mind changes. At that time and till the time I was on the plane I was scared to the toe but wanted to do the same somehow. But gathered strength and was ready to do the jump. I closed my eyes when the air gushed through my face and could hear the engine sound very clear and near to me. After few seconds when I opened my eyes I could see i was moving away from the plane and really on the sky. That was the moment of my life and all the fears disappeared into thin air and started enjoying every moment of the dive until I landed in the ground. I am happy that I have done this and want to dedicate this to Sankara Eye Foundation Europe who has got a geniune cause to support the blind and show them the colours of the world. So donate generously towards this noble cause.
