When and how did you start?

How did you come up with the idea? Your inspiration moment
Each one thinks different, acts different and each one has a unique passion. Grouping all of them under one word is so unfair. Isn’t it? So we decided we bring to you at least some of the people into focus through this blog. We live in a society that is so much partitioned that we do not know or care to know about each other’s world. It’s often surprising that the faces we see every day have so much to tell us about, their struggles, happiness and stories of triumph, all that could be an inspiration to some of us. And we have so much to offer each other.Let’s take a sneak peek into our neighbor’s world.
