Bow down to the India's Missile Man Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam

Dear all,

On 27th July evening, the whole country mourned to the death of a Bharat Ratna, India's Great Leader, India's Missile Man, Youth Icon and Ex-President Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam. A person who was a true Indian, who invested all his life in the betterment of the country and its countrymen, who was always eager to help the youth of India and the world and inspire them to make wonders, is no more among us!

What was so special about him, that the news of his death spread like wild fire and that the whole country was in grief receiving the news of his death?

These are a few things which made him the person he was and so different from others.

First and foremost thing, he was a Leader by Example! 
He was a type of a person who wont set you alone into the dark, but would be there with you, when you needed him. He said a great thing about being a leader, that managing Success is easy, but A Leader should know how to manage Failure. In one of his lectures, when he mentioned how should a leader be, he talked about his Project Director Prof. Satish Dhavan taking up the full responsibility of when the Missile Launch for 'Rohini' had failed in a press conference, and later, when it was successfully launched, he sent Dr. Kalam to head the conference and celebrate the success.

He was extremely humble and a down to earth person!
He performed small acts of kindness all through his life. Being an Ex-President of India, he had many people working for him, but he made sure that he would even talk to the one smallest in position. Even on his last day, he thanked the Security guy, who was standing for a long time for him to take the stage. I mean, that was not required, as the guy was doing his duty, but Dr. Kalam was quick to thank him.
Because of these acts of kindness, he earned a lot of respect from the people around the world.

He was fascinated by the youth of the country and guided and helped many in getting their dreams come true!
He and his team were always busy on some or the other projects and whenever he saw great ideas or a spark and needing something, he would help that person out. There have been hundreds of instances where he has helped students from different universities and schools in getting their dream projects built.
He was easily approachable via email and his team was prompt to reply within a few minutes of sending them a request.

He always worked for his Passion and what he was best at till the last moment of his life!
As we all know, he was a great leader and an eloquent speaker, he was an inspiration for the youth of India and worked day and night to help them out. He and his team was always busy in managing his schedule and made sure that majority of the people got benefit from his speeches.

It was because of his deeds towards the public that he was awarded the Bharat Ratna, India's highest Civilian honour!

There are so many of his quotes based on his experiences in Life and which if followed would make any life meaningful. Here are some which I like:








But the one which I love the most:



Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam was great at inspiring people, not just by talks, but his own actions and the immense lot of work that he did. He never got retired! He kept on working till the last day of his life!
What a Great Leader, What a Great Life!

Dear Sir,
You will always be alive in our hearts for all that you did for us!

Sincerely,
From an Indian on behalf of Every Indian!
