Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Autobiography 05

 Breaking along silence, the defense minister finally asked me, Kalam, what would you like me to do to celebrate the Agni success tomorrow? 

What did I want? What was it that I did not have? What could make me happier? And then I found the answer. We need 100,000 saplings to plant. I said, his face lit up with a friendly clue. You are buying the blessings of Mother Earth for Agni, the Defense Minister quit. We will succeed tomorrow. The next day, Agni took off at 7:10 hours. It was a perfect launch. The missile followed a textbook trajectory. All flight parameters were night. It was like waking up to a beautiful morning from a nightmarish sleep. We at least the launch plan after five years of continuous work like multiple words. to the ordeal of a series of snacks in the last five weeks. We had survived pressure from different things. but we had done it at last. It was one of the greatest longest in my life. A mere 600 seconds of elegant flight washed off our entire fatigue in an instant. What a wonderful culmination of our years of label. I wrote in my diary at night. Do not look it at me as an entity directed upward to deter the ominous or exhibit your mind. It is fire in the heart of India. Do not even give it the form of a missile as it clings to the burning pride of this nation and thus is print. Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi called the Agni launch a major achievement in our continuing efforts to safeguard our independence and security by self-reliant means the technology demonstration through Admi is a reflection of our commitment to the indigenous development of advanced technologies for the nation's defense. Bill. the Agni Lodge, the Indian Armed Forces had instructed for a strictly defensive role. The safeguard our nation to shield our democratic processes from the turbulence in the countries around us and to raise the cost of any external intervention to an unacceptable level with Agni, India had reached the stage where she had come option of preventing wars involving her. On Republic Day, 1919. the nation celebrated the success of its missile program. I was conferred the Padmavati along with Dr Arunachal. Memories of Pandavushi awarded a weekend. I still live carelessness. I had lived there in a room 10 feet wide and 12 feet long papers and a few pieces of heart furniture. The only difference was at that time my room was in Trivandrum and now it was in Hyderabad. Miss. Bella brought me my breakfast of Italy's impatible and smiled in silent congratulations for the whole world. I was touched by the recognition. I stood to me by my countrymen. A large number of scientists and engineers leave this country at their first opportunity to earn more money abroad. It is true that they definitely get creative monetary benefits, but could anything compensate for this love and respect from its own countrymen. on the 15th of October 1991 I turned sixty. I look forward to retirement and plan to open a school for the less privileged children. It was during this. that I decided to put down my memoirs and express my observations and opinions on certain issues. The biggest problem Indian youth faced I felt was a lack of clarity of vision, a lack of direction. It was then that I decided to write about the circumstances and people who made me what I am today. The idea was not merely to pay tribute to some individuals or highlight certain aspects of my life. What I wanted to say was that no one however poor, underprivileged or small, need feel disheartened about life. Problems are a part of life. Suffering is the essence of success. As someone said, God has not promised skies always blue. Flash room pathways all our life through. God has not promised sun without ringing. Joy will sorrow. Peace. without pain. I will not be presumptuous enough to say that my life can be a role model for anybody. But some poor child living in an obscure place in an underprivileged social setting may find a little solace in the way my destiny has been shaped. It could perhaps help some children liberate themselves from the **** of their illusory backwardness and hopelessness. Irrespective of where they are right now, they should be aware that God is with them And when he is with them, who can be the guest. Let the latent fire in the heart of every video require wings and the glory of this great country light up the sky.
