FLASHES OF CREATIVITYWhere would we be!

A friend is like a flower, a rose to be exactOr may be like an oak that stands long and firmA friend is like a swan, both beautiful and wiseOr perhaps like a star whose shine never fadesA friend is like a heart that goes strong until the endWhere would we be in the world if we didn’t have a friend! Abhinav, Abhinav, Abhinav, Abhinav, Abhinav, II/IV EEEWhy Worry?

No one is born perfect. We falter frequently during our growth. Through faults and failures, we becomestronger and better. People, however great, begin their life as small innocent children. Small achievementswhich go unnoticed lead to greater successes. Weren’t the present tennis and cricket superstars once small kidshandling the ball and the bat in a faulty way? Whoever knew they would ever become so great! At dawn thesun is warm, but doesn’t he grow hotter and hotter by noon?

Let us not underrate ourselves. We have several talents hidden in us. Let us give them a free play. Let us notshy away. There may be set-backs now and then, but let us not allow them to bother us. We should always bepositive in our attitude, sweeping off all the negative feelings and emotions. This, I think, is the right approach toa happy living. S. Ravi Teja,S. Ravi Teja,S. Ravi Teja,S. Ravi Teja,S. Ravi Teja, II/IV ECEHarmonious LivingIn recent years, there has been a tremendous spurt in technology. Along with it is seen a corresponding growthin crime and violence. Recent globalization has worsened this situation. The cross currents of civilizations areleading to confrontations making the world a dangerous place to live in.

The root cause of many of our problems is lack of character. What is character? It is not just a set of principles.Whatever contributes to friendly feelings and harmonious living is character. A small blot in character spoils thewhole thing. So let us zealously guard our character.

Whatever amount of comfortable living we still have is the result of our elders’ efforts. We should strive tomake our country the second sun in the universe radiating his light and energy all around.
