It was luck meeting Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam in 2005 when he was the president of India and he visited my college. I felt inspired while listening to his words because all he delivered was science, technology, facts of life and the path to progress. There was not a single political word uttered by him in his 45 minutes speech. It was heart-warming when he called all us students to the front and came down from the dais to meet us, shake hands, relate on how to motivate oneself to do better, what is life...
