Good morning Respected Principal, Vice-principal, supervisors, teachers, school staff, and my dear friends. Today, I, Priyanka mote, stand her in front of you all to deliver a great message. It's about ‘us’, yes, it's about today's children.

First of everything, a very happy children's day to all you dear friends. It’s the birth anniversary of our beloved Chacha. He loved small children. He did outstanding work for their benefit. He used to play with the children. Thus, today we celebrate this day in loving memory of him, that’s Pandit Jawaharlal Nehruji. Friends, let me ask you a question. Do you know how much potential you hold within yourself which can transform the world completely? Many of you must not know this. But let me say that the children of today, that’s us, can bring a bright future to our world and especially to our nation. We often underestimate ourselves in judging our potential. Sometimes, you may find yourself to be weak in terms of studies or other activities. Getting an education is inevitable. You have to gain knowledge in order to live. But it’s okay if you’re weak and could not get a scholarship. It’s okay if you lost the race. It’s okay if people make a joke of you when you slur your speech. It's completely okay. Our future isn’t just decided by our failures. Remember that. It may be the case where you're a brilliant web developer at the age of 15 instead of an active athlete! It may be the case where you're an outstanding writer who prefers to write literature instead of participating to win in other activities. Or rather say, it may be a case, where you are a business owner at such a tender age and don’t need marks for anything. Remember Abdul Kalam's quote: “ Dream, it's not which comes when you sleep, but a dream is something which doesn’t let you sleep.” Thus, all I want to say is, entrench your dreams in yourself. Make them true instead of holding grief about something which will not matter to you in the future, or even in the next five years.

Success isn’t just scoring good grades, it is not just defined by winning medals in sports and other activities. Success is when you find your passion. It’s when you work for your passion. Remember friends, we are the future. India needs to be flourished well. It is us who are going to decide the well being of our nation. I'm instilling all this in you for you to know that you are not incapable. A web developer at this tender age of 15 is nothing but an exception. A business owner is nothing but an exception. Cause you don’t find children running businesses easily, especially in India. It’s rare to find a 14-year-old web developer in India. These passions, rather say these activities increase your mental health. They increase your personalities. Be scintillating! I hope my speech gives an impetus to all of you. Find your passion, it’ll be a watershed in your life. I conclude by saying that “No matter what, your passion should be your ultimate goal.”

Thank you so much for your patient listening.
