Worst case, look for change after weeding out the weeds and creating enough of noise so that every one in the organisation knows about it. HONESTY, DEDICATION, DEVOTION, DETERMINATION are not just words - they are, they were and they will all ways be meaning full, what ever be the environment. As these characteristics are integral part of the basic fabric of any society, be it India or any other country. Some times it may appear that they are the root cause or are leading us to problems and miseries but actually it is these characteristics which lays the foundation of satisfying and successful life. ‘SANSKARs’ are based on the same values which were relevant in the past will be relevant in future as well. They are free from the effects of "time, place and the ruler' Regards P.K. Misra ‘NO’ Stand to values, even if it means misery.

Its difficult but i suppose one got to be practical,especially if the consequences of our actions may directly affect our dear ones.According to me, one shouldn't indulge in corrupt activities himself and try his best to check it in the system,keeping in mind the possibility of its adverse affect on his family ---- afterall one is accountable to the family also!! Though 'honesty'/ 'dedication' etc are not so prevalent qualities these days but i'm optimistic. Even a single person with these virtues can make a difference, no matter how small it is!! Above all, when u believe in them, adopting them makes u feel good!!And i feel the same logic applies to bringingup children with right values. By the way,Amod, do u know Ms Preeti Adaval, Ex-principal of Vasanta college, varanasi? With best wishes, meeta hi Amod,

What stops us from making a choice is consequences like “should I put my job at stake (during recession phase) and start leading a pauper’s life and force my family the same?” Conversely, the author may like to reflect on the consequences of not doing it. Admittedly, consequences are individual-specific-perceptions. In case a choice affects self respect, then one has to evaluate its relevance as compared to financial security. How to remain within one’s comfort zone is the moot point? To cite two quotes: • ‘if you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you do not have integrity, nothing else matters’. APJ Abdul Kalam Self Worth-- our lives come not in what we do or who we know, but by WHO WE ARE and WHOSE WE ARE. You are special Don't EVER forget it.
