Great Reading indeed

Dr.Rajan is a very fortunate man. it is said amidst ruins if a flower blooms all the destruction is forgotton. I felt the same reading this simple essay. When we see so many bad people aroung with nefracious activities it is so refreshing to read about the passion and love our President Shri Kalam. I happen to visit Rameshwaram Recently. Our Driver who had taken us from Madurai had the privelege of taking His Excellency Shri Kalam many times in his car and he had all praise for him. He too us to House of Kalam the name given to his home at Rameshwaram where we could meet the President Kalam's elder brother and we took photographs with him.
The country should be proud that we have a Idea man amn with a great vision, it is others who should take a leaf out of his ideas and build forward. If one closely observe his ideas he mixes growth of Rural india to be matched with Urban India.
may god Give years of Strength to this great Soul. Let us earmark this day by doing something good even to just a plant a tree to honour him on his birthday.

am shocked to read your comments on a simple article. Our Honourable President Kalam is a man of vision. You do not need to have big degrees to be a noble man. To be a saint you do not require great educational qualifications. All that one requires is passion and love towards one's country. How many of us will have the guts to tell someone going on a scooter or a car not to smoke, not to use mobile etc i have hardly seen anyone in india doing that. And if you tell someone no one will support you in your endeavour. We as Citizens of our country take few leaves from the suggestion of oour president will do a lot of good to our country. Do you know a magician in kerala is just showing magics emulating the idea of our President. That is what is required. When one worhips Sai Baba or Ramkrishna Parmahamsa we do not ask what his qualifications to be an holy man. It is the deed and the passion which is more important than paper qualification. Happy Deepawali to you.
