Yes, I am Changing...

*YES, I AM CHANGING*!

*Days slip into weeks, weeks turn into months and months transform into years. Calendars are changing and so am I.*

Yes, I  am changing. *After loving my parents, my siblings, my spouse, my children, my friends, I have started loving myself.*

Yes, I  am changing. *I just realised that I am not “ Atlas ” and the world does not rest on my shoulders.*

Yes, I  am changing. *I now stopped bargaining with poor vegetables and fruits vendors. After all, a few rupees more is not going to burn a hole in my pocket but it might help the poor fellow save for his daughter’s school fees.*

Yes, I  am changing. *I stopped telling the elderly that they have already narrated that story many times. After  all, the story makes them walk down the memory lane and relive the past.*

Yes, I  am changing. *I have learnt not to correct  people even when I know they are wrong. After all, the onus of making everyone perfect is not on me. Peace is more precious than perfection.*

Yes, I  am changing.  *I give compliments freely and generously. After all its  a mood enhancer not only for the recipient, but also for me*.

Yes, I  am changing. *I have learnt not to bother about a crease on my shirt or a spot on my skirt. After all, personality speaks louder than appearances*.

Yes, I  am changing. *I walk  away from people who don't value me. After all, they might not know my worth, but I do*.

Yes, I  am changing. *I remain cool when someone plays dirty politics to outrun me in the rat race.After all, I am not a rat and neither am I in any race*.

Yes, I  am changing. *I am learning not to be embarrassed by my emotions. After all, it's my emotions that make me human.*

Yes, I  am changing. *I have learnt that its better to drop the ego than to break a relationship. After all, my ego will keep me aloof whereas with relationships I will never be alone*.

Yes, I  am changing. *I demand  for whatever  is due to me. After all, accepting injustice is almost as bad as doing injustice*.

Yes, I  am changing. *I've learnt to live each day as if it were the last. After all, it might be the last* .

Yes, I  am changing. *I am doing what makes me happy. After all, I am responsible for my happiness, and I owe it to me.*

Birth Day  Remembrance   of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam

Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam (born 15 October 1931 in Rameshwaram, Madras Presidency, British India), usually referred to as Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam ,
was the 11th President of India, serving from 2002 to 2007. During his term as President, he was popularly known as the People’s President.

Before his term as India’s president, he worked as an aeronautical engineer with DRDO and ISRO. He is popularly known as the Missile Man of India for his work on development of ballistic missile and space rocket technology. In India he is highly respected as a scientist and as an engineer.

Honours: The Government of India has honoured him with the nation’s highest civilian honours: the Padma Bhushan in 1981; Padma Vibhushan in 1990; and the Bharat Ratna in 1997 for his work with ISRO and DRDO and his role as a scientific advisor to the Indian government.

Kalam is the third President of India to have been honoured with a Bharat Ratna before being elected to the highest office, the other two being Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan and Zakir Hussain. He is also the first scientist and first bachelor to occupy Rashtrapati Bhavan.

He had vision to see Bharat as developed nation by 2020. He strived to create an enlightened society to transform the religion into spiritual force. He believed Value Based Education and imbibing the essence of love and empathy only can create the bonding between humans. 

*”If God with us who can be against us”* is the biblical mantra which he gave it me to spread to all spiritual seekers to make self believe that God or Supreme is within ourself and we need to honour and respect the self and others as human and living creatures.

*Let us contribute to accomplish the mission of Kalam by contributing our bit towards development of our nation and by creating an enlightened society.*
