Thought of the day:

There will be haters, there will be doubters, there will be non-believers and then there will be you, proving them wrong. Let no one discourage your ambitious attitude and don't ever let somebody tell you can't do something as you don't need a fan club to achieve your goals. Be your own motivation and when everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it. Once the devil whispered to the warrior "You cannot withstand the storm" and the warrior whispered back "I am the storm". Always remember "Walls, Obstacles, Roadblocks etc. are not here to stop you; they are here to see how bad you want it."

Moreover there's no need to be perfect to inspire others; let people get inspired by how you deal with your imperfections. Don't be afraid of being special, be afraid of being like everyone else thus seek respect, not attention as it lasts longer.

Two events on Oct 31

On October 31 Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) will become a Union territory and integrate with India while the United Kingdom is likely to no longer be a part of the European Union territory. Both these events will have long term implications for their respective countries. Both issues, the special status that J&K had and UK's membership of EU have been debated for many years in both countries. Interestingly the Brexit referendum and integration of J&K with India were poll promises by parties which won the election.
