“My message, especially to young people is to
have courage to think differently, courage to invent, to travel the unexplored
path, courage to discover the impossible and to conquer the problems and
succeed. These are great qualities that they must work towards. This is my
message to the young people.” - Dr APJ Abdul Kalam
You will be missed
sir – en era of academic brilliance ends with your sad demise
In this world of glamour, overhyped publicity and larger
than life stature that people maintain, you remained aloof and untouched with this
make-believe world. Where people with fake smile and below average talent rose
to become ‘celebrity’, you with your supercomputer brains and knowledge bank
became our much loved ‘President’.
There is not one person in India and abroad who would not
have wept after hearing your demise. Dr
Your intellect, humility and calm demeanor don’t just inspire
but motivate us to strive to become like you. The unconditional love and
respect you held for education has been highlighted in all your speeches and
interviews. In the time that you spent on earth you might not have spent one
second in despair or anguish. Each second you sowed the seed of positivity,
enthusiasm and encouragement in the young minds of the nation.
The world owes you a lot. It is not just the contribution
you have made to the world of science and technology that makes each of
indebted. But the gift and gumption that you have given to each of us - to dream,
to ignite the power within and to dare to work towards attainting higher goals.
I wish we all can imbibe even one percent of what you were.
I wish we burn the lamp within us and work towards enlightening the world with
your thoughts and belief. I wish we worship you and offer our efforts in
helping to build India 2020.
May our souls reverberate to your tunes and teachings.....
We love you and will keep doing so......
