Pre-Ijtama preparations JIP

Having a mega event in city and knowing that you are going to host it, boost up the energy level and work potential eventually.

Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan (JIP) is going to have "Ijtama-e-Aam" in Lahore on 21, 22, 23 Novemberat Minar-e-Pakistan. I reached Mansoora for a youth program meeting and also got a chance to be in Lahore administration team meeting for sometime. I got there in evening, around Maghrib"

Its interesting that when we ask about time, generally we get answers like its 06:00 o'clock, 07:00 o'clock but in Jamaat circle, its normal till 12:00 pm and after that time changes name, its called as "Zohar time", "After Zohar", "Before Asar", and so on till " After Fajr"

So, I got there after "Maghrib" and the team was still there sitting, discussing, finalizing the promotional activities, and was looking really exhausted, but still forcing there bodies and minds to work.

Every body and every mind need relaxation after working for couple of hours, its natural but those ladies were working from morning till night and this routine was continuing since several days. We can imagine the work load and all the tension, burden, tiredness and exhaustion come with responsibility .

I was expecting that there bodies will give up in sometime but they started to freshen up, not by water but the by the dew of their own refreshing fun talks. That day I knew about having fun and being decent at the same time. They all coming from  different backgrounds were looking like a family. A family that volunteer together, work together, laugh together, have fun together, help together and even shed tears together, be a part of each others life. 

Well I hope day, night working make that coming training gathering a successful event, and all the exhausted people get a long rest :)
