Happiness!

The embryonal rhabdomysarcoma kid has scored 89% in his class X exam. It is a remarkable achievement considering all those visits for check ups, medication for secondary infections and those horrible side effects of radio and chemo therapies. He is well so far. Regular check ups will go on for some more time. Let us hope and pray that all will be well with this young kid.

What is important is not the score but the spirit. We are all here on planet earth just for a while. We are all bound to some extent by our inheritance; genetic, cultural, social. What matters is the kind of people we choose to become; how we live, think and act.
