Where the mind is without fear…

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 thee into ever-widening thought and action—
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

 

That’s my wish for the coming year !!! 

I wish the new year brings peace and smiles for everyone…and no child is devoid of education, food, or other basic necessities of life…. Childhood is precious !! And here I take this opportunity to applaud the great effort that the Akshay Patra Org has taken on.

Make online donations at: http://www.akshayapatra.org/onlinedonations  (Donations as small as Rs. 100 can also make a difference)

And I hope that this post of mine serves a meal to 50 children !

**Please blog or tweet about this initiative and help the needy kids who shouldnt be deprived of their precious childhood.

Merry Christmas and a Fulfilling, Happy & Successful 2011 to all of you and your loved ones 🙂
