Dear Parents/ Guardians,

In the rat race of chasing ambitions, we often forget the joy of discovering simple pleasures in life.In our pursuit of happiness, we leave happiness far behind. The true purpose of our being in this world is to be happy and spread happiness. A dissatisfied person who is unhappy with himself, can never be the source of happiness for others. Inorder to love others, we must first learn to love _ourselves.A happy person islike a sunbeam, which makes everyone warm and cozy and comfortable, whosoever: itgently touches.

Ifeach one of us becomes like a sunbeam, the world will be a warm, comfortable place to live in. Our life is whatever we want itto be. Let us stay away from negativity and embrace positive thoughts. In the pool of life, we are like ripples.We touch each other's lives knowingly or unknowingly. So, let us spread warm ripples which might make swimming pleasurable for all of us. Life is too short and too precious to be wasted on negativity.

Negative thoughts and actions are like the slime which we throw at others, but slime dirties our hands first before it falls on others. Positive energy, positive thoughts are the scented flower petals which not only make others happy, but more so, they benefit us byfilling oursenses with pleasureand peace.

Jealousy, anger, hatred, revenge -do we need any more enemies ? Without our beingaware of them, these enemies, we always carry with ourselves, wherever we go.So, instead oftryingto defeatthe enemy outside, let us defeatthese enemies within.

A truly happy person isone who is at peace with himself and with the world.'Letme do my duty and you do yours', that should be the 'mantra'. Our 'birth' was not our choice, our 'death' is also a natural outcome of our birth.

Therefore, the only thing where we can have our choice, is our life. Let us exercise this choice,the choice of life,to be happy and let others be happy

Warm regards,

Mrs. MOUSHUMI MUKHERJEE
