Greetings to all!
Have you noticed that today's post has no title. There is a special reason for it.
The person about whom I am writing today needs no introduction, no title. There are no words that can describe his life. He himself is a legend or I must say a Living Legend. The person I am talking about is The Missile Man of India, Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, our 11th president . Today is Dr. Kalam's death anniversary. Although he is not among us but is still alive in the hearts of his countrymen. His works, achievements, ideals continue to inspire the youth of the nation. His complete life is an inspiration in its own. There will be no exaggeration in saying that his life is a message to the world which convey us the fact that if a newspaper seller can be the president of the country then why can't we aspire to chase our dreams. 
One saying that suits him is- "Your life is your message to the world. Make sure it's inspiring". 
His life is a story of  Rags to Riches. He was a great man or should I say a great Leader. He was an Educationist, a Visionary. Most of all, he was a man of principles with complete dedication to his nation. He always motivated his countrymen to acquire knowledge and utilize it for the good of their country. He was so talented that he could easily get a job abroad but he preferred to work for his country. He taught us that nothing is impossible in this world. Impossible itself says 'I m possible'. Dare to take risks, dare to do that what challenges you. 
He is a great source of inspiration for each one of us. There is a lot to learn from him.  The two sayings which I like the most are-
  •  
    • "You have to DREAM before your dreams can COME TRUE". This saying teaches us that we must dream. There is no limitation over our thinking, our imagination. We must dream of something big. When dreams are big, the efforts to accomplish them will be big and when the efforts are big, the results will be definitely the best. Image result for A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

    • "Don't Read Success Stories, You Will Only Get Messages. Read Failure Stories, You Will Get Ideas To Get Success.!!". Success is not achieved in one day. It requires constant working, indomitable will and optimistic attitude. The first step towards Success is Failure. Unless we face failure, we cannot succeed. Winner is not one who never fails but one who never gives up on failing. We must try just one more time. This saying teaches us that No Ideas are Flawless but the Key to Success is identifying your mistakes, work upon them and then implementing them. Failure stories teach us how to overcome obstacles, how to keep ourselves going when the faith is running low.
    If anyone feel like giving up at any point of time in life, I strongly recommend  him to read the autobiography of  Dr. Kalam - 'WINGS OF FIRE'. It is not just an autobiography, it is a true realization of what is success and what are the ways to achieve it, what is the true essence of determination, optimism. 

    He will always be a Living Legend alive in the hearts of his countrymen. He will always be an inspiring figure for all of us. 

    A warm Tribute to the Children's President- 

    Dr. A. P. J Abdul Kalam (15 Oct, 1931-27 July, 2015)


    Thank YOU!!

    70 Years of INDEPENDENCE....

    Greetings to all the readers or should I say HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO ALL  !  I think today no greetings will be more suitable other than this.  Our nation, our motherland, has completed 70 years of, it's independence, it's freedom. It was the dawn of  August 15,1947 when our first prime minister Late Pt. Nehru unfurled the tricolor and addressed the nation with pride and honor. It was this day when our motherland came to life actually.  This milestone was not achieved in one day but took 200 and numerous efforts by our countrymen.  I can imagine, how  difficult it would have been to spend the night of  August 14. I am sure nobody had fallen asleep that night. Every eye was full of new dreams, new desires and new hope. Everyone was full of enthusiasm. They were going to become a  part of that historical moment which will embark a new beginning of our nation on global paths. We have come a long way since then. INDIA  has emerged as one of the supreme power of the world t

    FAILURE ....The First Step Towards SUCCESS!!!!

    Failure is the highway to success. Tom Watson said" If you want to succeed,double your failure rates." If we study history, we will find that all stories of great success are also the stories of great failures.  But the common people don't see failures. they only see one face of the coin. to our dismay, its not always the same it appears to be. Its much beyond that. In this world there are many great personalities who inspite of the rejections they faced, achieved their goals. This was because of their constant efforts,determination and optimistic attitude. There was a man who failed in business at the age of 21 ; was defeated in a legislative race at the age of 22 ; failed again in business at the age of 24 ; overcame the death of his sweetheart at the age of 26; had a nervous breakdown at the age of 27 ; lost a congressional race at the age of 34 ; lost a senatorial race at the age of 45 ; failed in an effort to become vice president at 47 ; again lost a senatorial

    Importance of 'MORALS'

    Moral values  are the social values which make an individual a complete asset for the nation. All the values such as honesty, respect, dedication, truthfulness, obedience, tolerance, cooperation etc are moral values. Moral values are important for an individual's social, mental,emotional development and in turn important for nation's strength and development. These values serve as the concrete pillars on which a nation stands and grows. Today's generation, on contrary, lack these values. In today's  world of hustle and bustle, everyone is self-centered. A poem by Pablo Neruda named 'keeping Quite' correctly governs the world of today. In this poem, Neruda talks of the necessity of quiet introspection and creating a feeling of mutual understanding among human beings which the world of today is lacking. Also the people are becoming more aggressive and intolerant. No one is ready to offer a helping hand to others. One of the main reasons behind this is the sing
