SAYINGS OF KALPANA CHAWLA

Today as u all know, it's "CHILDREN'S DAY". And in our campus, we had a get-together on this occasion. I really felt funny as we are no more children. But of course to be children is the most cherishable thing in life. And who can forget those days when we used to play without being concious of what others think and do whatever we feel like doing. And many more such things. Today, I am quoting some lines of Kalpana Chawla who can be undoubtedly the role model for children.

* "Follow your dreams"
* "Pioneers do not have role models"
* "The quickest way may not necessarily be the best"
* "Enjoying what you are doing now is the most important thing"
* "You must enjoy the journey, because whether or not you go there, you really must have the fun on the way"
* "The astronaut's job requires a technical background and strong desire..... go out in the blue younder"
* "I was overwhelmed most by the sense that it took only 90 min., even thoughts I had known that is overpowering sensation to know how small this place is"
* "In the retina of my eye, the whole earth and the sky would be seen reflected and everybody said; 'Oh! wow!'
* "The path from dreams to reality does exist and you may have the vision to find it, the courage to get onto it and perseverance to follow it"
(This was the last message e-mailed to the students of Punjab engineering college, Chandigarh, from the space shuttle).
