My Daily Activity Report Card

Last year I wrote an article describing my year-round activities. It covered gross points of major activities and events in the year 2018. Then I thought why not write something about my day-to-day activities once in a while and the result is this article!

I am a practising ophthalmologist for 40+ years. Activities other than eye disease treatment is at the cost of professional practice. But I do not mind losing practice nowadays because that is my concept of stepwise, gradual retirement.

Let me start.

On Saturday, 28-Sep-2019 4:00 PM onwards, I attended a lecture from Shreya Kataria¹ (my favourite young author) on a book review at the Senior Citizens Club, Gandevi. After this, there was a Lions Club meeting at 7:00 PM.
On 04-Oct-2019, I travelled 184 km to Nizar for my lecture on Personality Development² to 250 colleges students of this relatively backward area. To my surprise, they heard me sincerely and repeated the gross points of my lecture when asked. Same day evening, there was a Garba³ programme with inmates of an old-age home in Gandevi, following dinner.
Last week, our Lions Club of Bilimora Yugma celebrated the Service Week. on 30-Sep-2019, there was a rally for Traffic Awareness⁴ on Road Safety at 10:30 AM with Bilimora Municipality, Police Department. and Rehbar Auto Dealer. 400+ motor-cyclists participated.
The second rally was on 02-Oct-2019, 7.30 AM we celebrated 150^th Gandhi Jayanti⁵. We gathered at Bili Harijanvas for flag hoisting and had a rally with 1,100 people including high-school students.
On 03-Oct-2019, 9.30 AM we visited Nandini Gaushala, Bhaiya Tekri, Gandevi to feed cows there and do Animal Service⁶.
On 05-Oct-2019, 9.00 AM I joined Eye Check-up Camp⁷ at Somnath Primary School, Bilimora with Dr Darshana Naik. More than 120 students were attended to.
On 06-Oct-2019, Sunday, after attending Garba with Senior Citizens⁸ of Bilimora, we went to Dandak Van⁹, Vansada for a night stay with my wife Dr Bhavana and daughter Vaishali. I learnt Vihangam Yoga¹⁰ between 6:00 to 8:00 PM. The stay in the forest surrounded by hills and the temple is an experiment worth enjoying.
