During the days of addiction, addicts forgot the meaning of
Companionship and Belongingness. On 8th
January, 2012 Five Re-entry Residents of Shafa went on an outing to
re-discover what companionship or belongingness is all about.
The
re-entry residents had planned a day out after a long period of time, which was
like a dream come true. All were excited and pumped up to explore the world
again with a new vision and excitement. They watched a movie and later shared their
feelings with each other like never before. A nice lunch after the movie added
a true flavor. They took pictures, sang songs, saw spiritual ‘Gathka’ and
interacted with people to know about the new developments while they were in
their own world. They were in their true elements and it was like joy following
them like a shadow.
They really
felt what exactly they have lost in their past and what can they earn in their
future. Today they could clearly understand the feeling of regret for always
being a black sheep in their family. The day ended with realization and a
promise to each other that we will not lose what they have earned after lot of hard
work and patience.
