Our Pledge Today

Its not about the thought process, but the practical implementation of our thoughts . Many of us prayed for Kalam's soul but his soul will be happy when we tend to realise his dreams. In his address to our Nation on the eve of 59th Independence day , he spoke of Energy Independence and Energy Security. How many of us even care for switching off fans and lights when we move out of our room?
These small things when done on a large scale contribute largely.
We may not do great things but we can certainly do small amendments in our daily lives which makes a difference .

We may not change the lives of other people but we don't have to become the hurdles in the path of the people who try.
We know of Kailash Satyarthi  now by the recognition of the Noble committee. The President of our Nation congratulated him as he made our country proud by receiving the Nobel Peace Prize. He is great even if he had not got that prize.Bringing Freedom into the lives of 83,000 children is a great accomplishment one can have in their lifetime. We may not recognise his work before the Nobel Committee does, he worked for the eternal pleasure he gets by the smile of a free child rather than honours or awards , but the hurdles
put in front of him on his way varied from criminals to the then Prime Minister of India.
Why are we placing our selfish attitude before the noble cause?

On the midnight speech of 1947 , Nehru explained the goal of Wiping off the tears from the faces of all. Even after 68 years we are far from achieving it. If we can control our desires and work for the eternal happiness , we can do it.
