THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS

for festivity and merry making and more than that it is a time for
contemplation of eternal things. The Christmas spirit is a spirit of giving and
forgiving.

“ASK
NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY HAS DONE FOR YOU. ASK WHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR YOUR COUNTRY”
Independence Day, celebrated
annually on the 15th of
August is a day we got our freedom. It is a day to remember that thousands of
our freedom fighters sacrificed their lives for us to achieve independence.

independence.
