Celebrating the Essence of Childhood

'Rabindranath Tagore has beautifully said, 'Every child comes with the message that God is not yet discouraged of man'.  Indeed, children are divine gifts that parents get from the Almighty. The birth of a child is a joyous occasion that everyone looks forward to excitedly. There is joy and celebration when a child is born. Children are adorable. Their eyes are full of innocence, which signifies the purity and manifestation of God’s love, who in His wisdom so carefully and wonderfully creates unique individuals. It is said that childhood is the most beautiful of all life's seasons - the best phase of one’s life. In the joy of childhood there are no grudges and no secrets to be kept; there is just happiness, of living every moment joyfully. Childhood has a great significance in the making of an adult. Therefore, Children’s Day is a very important event not only for children but also for parents and teachers, as this is the day to celebrate the spirit of childhood and to remind ourselves that our children need to be loved and cared for. This Day is the birthday of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Prime Minister of independent India.  He was a great leader who was keen about the welfare, education and development of children in India. He was fond of children and became popular as Chacha Nehru amongst them. Children are the most valuable resource; they are the future of our society. The values and discipline learned as a child remain for a lifetime. while India has been blessed with over 193 million children in the age group of 6 to 14 years, at least 35 million of these children do not get to attend school. Being the youngest country in the world, we need to treasure our children and provide them with opportunities and an environment for schooling, and grow into persons they truly deserve to be. Every child should have cherished memories of his/her school life. If every child in our country is nurtured with great care, our nation will be at the forefront in all spheres in the world.  Children are vulnerable and need to be loved and cared for. If our children become weak, then the future of our society will be weak.  In this context, the former President of South Africa, Nelson Mandela has aptly said, 'Safety and security don’t just happen, they are the result of collective consensus and public investment. We owe our children, the most vulnerable citizens in our society, a life free of violence and fear'.  Parents and society must understand that Children's Day is the day to reaffirm that children have the right to live their childhood joyfully and to grow graciously in the sight of God. How true is the proverb: 'Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it'.  I urge parents and teachers to nurture our children and train them to be honest and responsible citizens. Above all, love them and care for their happiness. I encourage children to obey their parents and teachers and honour them. They should be grateful to God for them, and for the gift of childhood God has blessed the children with. We should pray for those who are today not fortunate to be able to goto  school, that they too may get the opportunity to study and live a life of dignity and respect.  As children celebrate their childhood, they must remember that they are unique, special and a wonderful gift of God' - Dr. A.F. Pinto, Chairman, Ryan International of Institutions
