Musing Of Heart

“I cannot take it anymore!” says an inner voice after being defeated in many battles, cheated at various occasions and let down at innumerable junctures. “The show has to go on, the mission is still to be realised!” muses heart -indefatigable and undefeatable. Life is not about giving in -it is about doing our best and leaving the rest to Him. The articles in this book may carry different titles but they are the waves of one restless sea and carry the same message.We have been through very rough times that almost tore apart the fabric of our society. In those of hours of incredulity and distress, it was our faith and dedication to religious tenets that came to our rescue. We still have a long way to go, to repair and reconstruct. As a nation we must realise the importance of our institutions and the need to fortify them! We have to demonstrate by our actions that we really believe that our salvation lies in them.Some people have been chosen to light candles which show the way to others.
