Be Unique....

"If you want to shine like a sun , first burn like a sun." 

 Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam, the renowned personality, peoples president, was a visionary and scientist. The words of  Kalam are very meaningful. He encouraged each and every one in the world by his golden words. 'Be unique' . It was the famous ideology. He contributed to the youth. He exhorted the youth to be unique. The burning desire in the individual to be unique will help them to scale great heights. But the society is facing a great problem which prevents the youth from growing up.  'Imitation is a suicide' says Emerson. We are living our life by the expectation of others. While in family, our parents may tell us to be like the neighbor's children who scores very highly in exams. In school, society , all are prompting us to be like someone else. Living a life for others will ruin our happiness. Imitation will take away the original in you. During a speech Kalam said, everyone will confront a battle, a battle which is the greatest one in every human life. No life is devoid of hurdles and hardships. If we lose our heart while facing struggles, we are bound to fall. By overcoming these circumstances, we will reach at the supreme level, ie a level of Independence, a unique you. A unique personality will travel through the path that is less chosen by others and challenge the orthodox way that other people act. Be a difference and make a difference. Then the world recognizes you. Leave a signature in the world that the world remembers you forever. Once more remember the words of Kalam 'What  will you be remembered for?' The answer is in your attitude, your behavior, your dedication......
