"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." -- Martin Luther King Jr. "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." -- Martin Luther King Jr. "We should not let our fears hold us back from pursuing our hopes."
Today India is celebrating her Independence ! It is worth remembering what Noble Prize Winner Rabindranath Tagore conveyed the message!
"I have become my own version of an optimist." "If I can't make it through one door, I'll go through another door— or I'll make a door. " "Something terrific will come no matter how dark the present"
and also:
Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high Where knowledge is free Where the world has not been broken up into fragments By narrow domestic walls Where words come out from the depth of truth Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit Where the mind is led forward by theeInto ever-widening thought and action Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake. PS: There is no Excuse! Just Do IT!
