I am still in shocked state thinking about the loss we
have undergone in the past days.... I thought of writing about our dear Lt. A.P.J.Abdul kalam but thought myself to be not deserving enough to write about such a great personality.... But as he always liked to be along the common man it gave me a sense of responsibility to write about him with my heart felt respect ,about a great personality like him.
I missed an opportunity of a lifetime a few years back....when I missed the bus to be able to meet him face to face ,when he had come to our college, just after he was sworn The President of the country!!! It is like crying over spilled milk but still I feel like I have met him personally. Yes, it is through his books that have imprinted his thoughts and values in me. Reading his WINGS OF FIRE and IGNITED MINDS made me think that he is talking to me!!! I am sure many a followers of his might have felt the same way as me isn't it? I used to feel those wings of fire in me and fuel my dreams through his simple teachings.
I still remember the day when he was in the contention for the presidential post and everybody was so happy and sure about his win!!! While the whole country was debating about his golden locks,he made sure that he is able to take oath in the presence of the future of the country i.e,the children!!! I think it was his way of inspiring those little minds.... He might have spearheaded so many missile missions in the country but still his only love was to be a simple teacher!!
He always encouraged us to dream and fulfill our dreams...this makes us think that he supported a talented mind a lot ,in whichever field it may be... He have taught us even with his failures that, never loss hope and u will succeed at last. Till his last breath he tried to convey his precious thoughts to us.
Today he might not be with us but still his teachings will always remain with us and continue to enrich us. May his soul rest in peace...
