This morning I listened to an inspiring speech by Ms. Frida D'Sa, Sarpanch of Nuvem, Goa. Ms. D'Sa was speaking to the students of Carmel College for Women, Nuvem at the start of their 3-km run.
The run was organized by Ms. Synora Picardo, Sports Director, Carmel College, Dr. Esperanca Gomes, Sports-in-charge, Carmel HSS, and their teams. Being a Saturday, the turn out was good. There were over 100 students from the Higher Secondary and College sections.
Accompanied by morning sounds from the village - in a few simple words - Ms. D'Sa made a deep impact on those who heard her. Here is a transcript of her speech:
Welcome to the students of Carmel College and Higher Secondary. Being a student of the college, I have always tried my best to be an inspiration, keeping my health, my fitness in mind.
I congratulate every girl child who is here. I inspire every girl child who is here. Besides the girl child the entire humanity.
What is important is that if we do not have a healthy life, if we do not have happiness in our lives, we do not reach anywhere.
Congratulations to each one of you'll, inspiring each one of you'll towards a wonderful fit run, a successful run.
Congratulations to each participant. I Frida D'Sa, Sarpanch of Nuvem Panchayat congratulate you. Thank you very much.
