Beyond Self

Our lives are intertwined with other people, the community, society, humanity itself; even to our environment, the animal kingdom, nature and Mother Earth herself.

We believe that when our lives are lived in a way beyond our individual concerns, the ripple effects of caring not just for our own selves will make this world a better place, and our lives more meaningful.

It can be social work, or any activity that uplifts, empowers and helps others, be it other people, animals, or any social or environmental cause.

We have found that being involved in such activities has helped us to become better people, parents, and led to our growth.

Here we share of some things we do that go beyond self, most of which are of social upliftment.
