Life is for living, face challenges head on: Governor

Hon’ble Governor Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan on Friday exhorted the youngsters not to get depressed with failures.

“Failures are bound to happen in life. Enjoy the failures. Take the challenges head on and continue to strive for success,” she said.

The Governor, as the chief guest, was speaking at a workshop on “Eight Elements of Wellness,” organised by the Spandana Eda International Foundation at the Brahmkumaris Shanti Sarovar Seminar, Gachibowli, here.

She stated that life is precious and it should be protected at all costs. Failure is not permanent. It should only motivate us to fight back and achieve success.

“It pains me to see many young children taking out their lives for petty reasons. No reason is big enough to commit the suicide. Life is a great gift. We should make the life meaningful. The parents, friends, and the society must build a strong support system to the vulnerable,” she said.

The Governor appealed to the parents and teachers to spend time with the children and understand and empathise with them in their hour of need.

“It is the duty of the parents and teachers to remain strong pillars of support and help the vulnerable children to come out of the setbacks. Constant and healthy communication is vital,” she said.

Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan asked the students to focus on their studies, careers and take up what interests them the most and to love the work what they do.

The workshop was aimed at spreading awareness about the importance of precious life and to ensure suicide-free India.
