342nd Meeting: Sharing Is Caring

Share your life with others. You will have a joyful life.

- Lailah Gifty Akita

Filcom's 342nd meeting was indeed a night full of sharing - of wisdom, experiences, and fun. Sgt-At-Arms Elamar gathered everyone and handed over the floor to President Leo who officially opened the meeting and welcomed the guests. Dennis who served as the Toastmaster of the Day shared some anecdotes and presented the meeting's theme, before he introduced the role players: Jessie as Grammarian, Azhar as Ah-Counter, and Abigail as Timer.

💕 SHARING OF STORIES

Three story-sharers adorned the meeting with their prepared speeches. Rechelle on her second rendition of her speech "Dead Air" did not fail to move the audience with her heartwarming speech. Diana, fulfilling her second project for Level 2 with her speech "The Happiness Advantage", gave a refreshing take on the relationship of happiness and success. CJ, soared high like an eagle on his speech entitled "Fly High, Land Low", capping off his Level 2 in Pathways.

💕 SHARING OF PERSPECTIVES

Table Topics Master Lotfy brought with him some colored index cards and asked questions with reference to the psychology of colors. The challenge-takers who shared their wisdom on different subjects were Arjay, Diana, and Tag.

💕 SHARING OF WISDOM

The heart of every Toastmaster meeting - the evaluation segment, was led by Philip. Evaluators Joseph, Nadim, and Fouad shared their feedback and recommendations on the respective speeches assigned to them. Shyam also gave his valuable thoughts on the Table Topics session and speeches, before Philip delivered his General Evaluation.

With 4 new members inducted, Lotfy, Azhar, Manij and Abigail, there is certainly more to share and be shared in Filcom. The meeting ended well with everyone sharing a part or two of themselves in any way possible, time, talent, and piece of their lives.

"Why are you in Toastmasters? Perhaps you don't know this, but you are here TO SHARE." 💕
