weld the beloved country

Being a petrol head since i could barely walk had my attentions directly on the automotive field as soon as the 'learn a skill' challenge was introduced to us. I thought long and hard and came to the conclusion that learning how to weld would be a very valued skill. Almost every structure that surrounds us today contains some sort of weld within its framework, whether it be cars, buildings or furniture.

I approached a much respected member of my family, Zunaid Khan, and asked him if he would teach me this skill. He is a very busy man, being a great entreprenuer and running his own Toyota specialised workshop. I met him on wednesday the 7th of April to discuss how the next week would be scheduled and where he could fit me in for training. I returned on Saturday the 10th where he gave me a very brief and theoretical overview of welding, but with the absence of some staff and the saturday morning 'rush', i found myself helping behind the counter and getting my hands dirty in the workshop. i will return this week to continue my training

  1. maybe getting your hands dirty is what you are suppose to learn?
    remember, it's a journey of awareness...
