USED VS LOVED -A beautiful and inspirational story

USED vs. LOVED (An inspirational story)

 While a man was polishing his new car, his 6 yr old son picked up a stone and scratched lines on the side of the car. In anger, the man took the child's hand and hit it many times;
not realizing he was using a wrench. At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures. When the child saw his father.....with painful eyes he asked, 'Dad when will my fingers grow back?' The man was so hurt and speechless; he went back to his car and kicked it a lot of times. Devastated by his own actions.......sitting in front of that car he looked at the scratches; the child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'.The next day that man committed suicide. . .Anger and Love have no limits; choose the latter to have a beautiful, lovely life..... Things are to be used and people are to be loved. But the problem in today's world is that, People are used and things are loved.... In this year, let's be careful to keep this thought in mind: Things are to be used, but People are to be loved. Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits they become character;Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

UTTRAKHAND FOUNDATION DAY-09 NOVEMBER 2023

 Twenty-two years ago when Uttarakhand was carved out of Uttar Pradesh in 2000, it was the successful culmination of 70-year-old struggle of the people of the hilly region for a separate state.

Uttarakhand was formed on the 9th November 2000 as the 27th State of India, when it was carved out of northern Uttar Pradesh. It was earlier known as Uttaranchal, however, in 2007, it was renamed Uttarakhand. This year, it will be 22nd Uttarakhand Foundation Day.

Located at the foothills of the Himalayan mountain ranges, it is largely a hilly State, having international boundaries with China (Tibet) in the north and Nepal in the east.

It is rich in natural resources especially water and forests with many glaciers, rivers, dense forests and snow-clad mountain peaks. Char-dhams, the four most sacred and revered Hindu temples of Badrinath,Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamunotri are nestled in the mighty mountains. It’s truly God’s Land (Dev Bhoomi).

Two of India’s most revered rivers, Ganga and Yamuna, originate from Uttarakhand. While River Ganga originates from Gangotri, Yamuna originates from Yamunotri in the Himalayas.

Politics in Uttarakhand is dominated by the Indian National Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Since the formation of the state these two parties have ruled the state in turns. As of today, Pushkar Singh Dhami of the BJP is the current Chief Minister of Uttarakhand
