Rejuvenate yourself for the new challenges

The new year 2011 has arrived. It's the time to say good bye to the previous year in which there must be lots of memorable moments. Some of them must be disappointing also But we have to forget the bad experiences and only concentrate on the positive aspects of life definitely learning from the past mistakes and with the caution not to repeat them again. We often use to take the new year resolution in which we concentrate on some particular goal or take oath to come out of our limitations and the bad traits which are present within us.It's the time to recharge our battery and do the planning and their execution to reach our goals. We fail in any work if it is done half heartedly or without proper planning. But its human to do the mistakes same time we have to learn from these mistakes also. It is very well said that failures are the pillars to success. We must not be depressed and give up if things does not happen according to our wishes. There are moments in which we have to accept our defeat also but with the vow that we will rise above and will be the conqueror in our next effort.This is the way how the life goes. We have witnessed lots of new year in our life but each year which has passed is remembered for certain reasons whether good or bad. We must try to make the new year a remarkable one with lots of which will make it memorable and to be remembered for rest of our life. But these are only for our personal success and satisfaction of our desires. The meaning of life altogether changes if you contribute it in the service of humanity and welfare of others.In this fast and materialistic era we are only focused on our personal achievements and has left our social responsibilities. This is the biggest thing which we are ignoring and which is not good for us either. We often blame our society to be selfish and least concerned about others. But we do not realize that its we who forms and run this society. Jesus has taught us long before that we must do the same things which we expect from others. The seeds of hatred can never come up as a tree of love and acceptance. Therefore we must love and take care of the fellow beings of our society and try to spread the message of love and tolerance to make a better society.

Each soul has the spirit of God

The festival of Christmas is celebrated on 25th of December all over the world as a birthday of Jesus Christ. The festival gives the message that love and peace should prevail and flourish in the humanity. The life of Christ was very troublesome and he had to struggle a lot to spread the message of God among the people. He had a tragic end when he was punished and crucified because he wanted to establish the kingdom of God which was against the wishes of the Roman king. But the Christ even prayed for those who were torturing him and wanted to see him dead at the time of his crucification. That’s why he is consider the messiah and the son of the God.There are lot of things to be learned from his life. First of all we must believe in the supreme power that is God and has to believe in his kingdom. No kingdom is greater than him and will perish with the time but one can become immortal if he believes in love and spread it among the fellow ones. Only the deeds are immortal.We must not differentiate among the people as each one is son of God and must be considered equal. We can even win the hearts of our enemy with our love and forgiveness. We should learn to forgive and must be kind towards all the creations of the God. There should not be any room for the violence in the human life. We should learn to live in peace and harmony. Each human body has the spirit of the same God within him. He is always within us and only deep introspection and kind heart is needed to discover him.Today’s Life is full of violence and apathy. There are lots of chaos and anarchy in today’s life. We are wandering for peace here and there but fail to succeed. The belief in humanity has reached towards its greatest low and our ethical and moral values has taken a backseat. We are helpless and looking towards each other for the solution to these problem. But alas we don’t have the presence of Jesus to show us the way and solve this crisis.We must not loose hope and should believe in his preaching which is always relevant for us. We must adhere in the doctrine of humanity and maintain peace and harmony within our society. The true education shows us the same path. If we spread the message of love and reduce the hatred and ill-feelings from our lives then the situation will improve amazingly.

Understand the importance of team for the society

Human beings are social animal. We cannot expect to live without taking support from another. We need one another for our existence and support and this is the basis of our social life. We live in a group and are dependent on each other for various reason. Our family is such a smaller group. We live as a team their where each one shares a definite responsibility for the accomplishment of our goals. We automatically start doing our work with the start of the day like a well synchronized and tuned machine.This tuning has to be further extended within the society too. This is a kind of art and requires your social skills. We need our milkman, vegetable sellers, grocers, chemist, doctor, conveyance provider, teachers and many others in our day to day life. They are not our family members but we need them. Let us consider one hypothetical situation in which you have to rush to the hospital immediately and there is no public transport at the road even the ambulance or your own vehicle and also of your neighbors are not available at that particular time We can well understand our situation that only God can save us then. Hence the development of sense of belonging ness and coexistence is necessary so that people are available to come to your help in that situation or even in your normal life when there is no emergency. We start to learn the team spirit at the school itself when we are a part of a class. We learn how to behave with the others and learn about the interdependency and coexistence. These lessons are further utilized in our adulthood when we start to work and support our own family.There are certain important things which has to be always kept in mind that we should be helping in nature and ready to help others in need irrespective of the return from them. We must be open to the new ideas and have respect for the others, even the smaller one must be given their due respect. If we give respect to others the people will start giving us the respect and it will come automatically. We must not be arrogant and do not try to insult others for any reason or basis. Also we must not give our self-respect either and must not tolerate any deed of humiliation and oppression against us or others.

School plays a vital role in our lives

The role of school is very important for our grooming. We don’t go to school just to know how to read and write. Nor is it only a means to grab degrees by passing the examination and moving to higher classes, but more.Human beings are said to be civilized social animals. Although our homes give us the protection and first feelings of the school and we start learning things from here itself. It's the school where our actual process of learning and development starts and takes shape.We spend at least 12 valuable years of our lives in schools. In this long span of time we ensure our overall development. The acquisition of character and behavior actually takes place during this period which prepares us to face the harsh reality of the outer world when we come out of school. We learn to develop the team spirit and cooperation by developing school spirit. School spirit can improve a student's commitment to education. This commitment can in turn act as a deterrent to negative behavior, such as dropping out of school. School spirit creates a positive learning environment for both students and teachers. And having a positive learning environment is one of the many things that make going to school so exciting.We learn lots of things at school leaving the difficult syllabus apart. We learn how to mingle, develop friendship and socialize with different people. Most important of all, we come to discover ourselves by developing our mind and soul. We teachers pouring their heart and soul in instilling knowledge and wisdom in us. They solve our query, clear our doubts and make us feel what we are and what we have to become in future course of life.The character of society actually is determined at school itself. Hence this key period has to be utilized properly if we would like to lead a successful life. The success does not only lie in becoming a commercial successful person; rather, we must try to be good humans first.The school must also give stress on imparting moral values to us. Developing the academic ability must not be the mere goal of it. A proper environment conducive for learning must be provided at our schools.

People and Government should work together

A good government must meet up with the expectation of the people. A common man expects a lot from his government by actively participating in the election process. He hopes that the new government will be people friendly which will uplift their social and economical condition.A win-win situation for both people and government will be possible if people are aware about their duties and rights and keep government on toes by frequent questioning and monitoring the development program run for their benefit. Govt too must respond in the same way by providing clean, dedicated and people driven administration leaving no place for the corruption.Students too have lots of expectation from a good government. A people friendly government must ensure quality education for its kids apart from health, food, hygiene, housing and employment.We have lots of problem in our society and its difficult to solve them independently one by one. But surprisingly enough education can be the remedy of all these problems alone. If we ignite the lamp of education within every child which are said to be tomorrow future can improve the situation to unbelievable extent. So the government must not ignore the education in the interest of the nation.The big question which arise is how and who will do this job. Is this the responsibility of the government alone or some other people will have to intervene in this mammoth task.Basically it's the responsibility of all the intellectuals and responsible people of our society. They must continuously demand and do whatever possible from them to accomplish this task. This work cannot be left alone only for the government. We must create an atmosphere where people must urge for the need and demand for quality education which has to be easily provided to all.
