මං පාරේ අයාලේ යන බව්වෙක්
මට මතකයි පොඩි කාලේ මාමලා වගයක් මාව පාරේ දාලා ගියා. එදා තමයි මං බය උන වැඩිම දවස. එදා ඉදන් අව්වට වැස්සට සෙවනක් නැතිව කන්න බොන්න හරියට නැතුව දුක සේ ඉන්නෙ. අව්ව දවසට අව්වෙන් බේරෙන්න වාහනයක් යටට රිංගනවා. මොකද ඉස්සර වගේ හෙවන දෙන්න ගහක් හොයගන්න නැති තරම් නිසා. වාහනේ යට උනත් ඉන්නේ හරි බයෙන් මම.

වැස්ස දවසට තෙමෙන්නෙ නැතුව ඉන්න තැනක් හොයාගන්නම නෑ. කඩයක් ඇතුලකටවත් මට යන්න බෑ.මාව එලවනවා අයාලේ යන බව්වෙක් නිසා. ඉතින් වැස්ස දවසක් කියන්නේ ගොඩක් වෙලාවට මට තෙමෙන්න වෙනවම තමයි. වැස්සට තෙමිලා මගෙන් එන ගද මටම වෙලාවකට ඉවසන්න බෑ. මැක්කොත් ඇගේ බෝ උනාම මට මේ ජිවිතේ මොකක්ද කියලා හිතෙනවා. කන්න කෑමක් හොයන් මං දවසකට කොච්චර නම් දුරක් ඇවිදිනවද. සමහර දවස් වලට කොච්චර ඇවිද්දත් බඩ පිරෙන්න කෑමක් හම්බෙන්නෙත් නෑ. මං ඉතින් ඉවසගන්න බැරි උන වෙලාවට කෑම ඉල්ලනවා මිනිස්සුන්ගෙන්. ගොඩාක් අය මට ඉතින් ගහල පන්නනවා. මං ගද ගහන වල් බල්ලෙක් නිසා වෙන්න ඇති ඉතින් එයාලා එහෙම සලකන්නේ. එත් ඒක මට වෙනස් කරන්න විදියක් නෑනේ ඒක මට උරුම දේනේ. හිත හොද මිනිස්සුත් නැතුවම නෙමෙයි.

මේ ලගදි අපිට කන්න බොන්න දුන්නා ලියෝ එකේ අයියලා අක්කලා.එයාලා හරි හොදයි. එයාලගෙ මොකක්ද වැඩසටහනක්ද කොහෙද. එයාලා අපිව හොයගෙන ඇවිත් අපිට කෑම දීලා අපිව අත ගාලා ආදරෙන් සැලකුවා. මං හිතන්නේ මට ජිවීතෙට ලැබුන ලොකුම සතුටක් ඒක.ඒ අයියලා අක්කලා වගේ උනා නම් අනිත් මිනිස්සුත් අපිට හැමදාමත් සතුටෙන් ඉන්න තිබ්බනේ. අනේ එ අයියලා අක්කලා ආයි එනවා නම් අපිව බලන්න......

By- Leo Dinendri Wilegoda Arachchi Just Be You... The words say it all, we wanted every young person to be truly proud of who they are and the achievements they have gained and the achievements that they are to gain in the future. This pandemic is effecting lives in countless ways, the feeling of isolation and the social distancing is making the younger generation coupe up to a corner scrolling through their social media. A fact that can be seen is that he/she could affect the mental status of a person hence with the goal of empowering the youth generation this social media challenge began. The components being to include 3 photographs of themselves within 3 major stages of their lives and to include a quote that made a difference to their life in a positive way.  The challenge surely attracted many Leos as well as Non-Leos'. Not only were we enjoying our time with family flipping through old albums many of us learned backstories' of photographs of our childhood. Seei...

 By - Leo Chanakya Ranasinghe බහු භූතයෝ Celebrating Halloween is not something usually done in Sri Lanka, yet the new trend is slowly sweeping into the lives of the modern generation. We thought of this to be the perfect opportunity to hold on tight to the strong bond within the Leos of A2.  බහු භූතයෝ was organized jointly with our fellow Leo Club, Leo Club of Kalubowila. With Leo Malika as Chairperson, Leo Disali as project secretary, and Leo Chamika as project treasurer the night of horrors and fun was planned under the guidance of the club presidents. The initial idea has been generated from Leo Dinendri the team pooled in with many of their thoughts to ensure that this night was one to remember.

Multiple games were planned and as the judges was our chief guest District President Leo Mudith who happened to be a pirate on the day along with Guest of Honour Imm...

With multiple trees being cut to satisfy a need that can barely ever be ful-filled. With tons of people lining up in stores daily a wolrd wide best selling industry is the industry of paper. Our daily need is one of them. Be is wrapping paper, tissue paper or even note pads we cannot live without it. Knowing the way in which paper is made yet we assume we have acres and acres more to go until onedaya we won't have anything else more to live on. We hope to create a spark of responsibility to all those who do not feel the pressure of global warming that we are going throrugh at present. We as humans have given out need priority knowingly killing the world among us. Though at first it was to be carried out in multiple phases we had to opt to just doing the email awarenes campaign due to the Covid-19 pandemic which is effecting a globe. I...
