Mondays are full of madness! Mondays for most people brings out the colour blue (Monday Blues). But like so many things, is it just a figment of our imagination? So if we change our attitute, is it possible to change Manic Monday into Magic Monday? What if we feed it into our system that Monday will be a grand day? It will be a day when our energy levels will be the higest because we will be refreshed after a break and that we will start a new week with zest and high spirits! What if we tell ourselves at the start of the week that this week we will be unstoppable, be a powerhouse and race ahead, could it change things? I believe it could :)
And believing is the first step towards changing things for good !! :)
This is another post in the Magical Monday series of inspirational stories aimed at motivating us to bring out our best on the first day of the week!
Today the story is of a brave officer of the Indian army, Colonel M N Rai, who died fighting militants in Jammu and Kashmir, a militancy-hit region of India
Rai, a commanding officer of 42 Rashtriya Rifles, was killed during an encounter in Tral in Pulawama district while fighting militants. He was just 39.
Rai along with being a brave soldier was a good leader and a motivator. He had taken a number of initiatives for the positive engagement of youth (like organising cricket and football tournaments) in Tral, the distubed area where he was posted. He organized these matches to keep the youth positively and proactively engaged ensuring that the youth do not stray into the ranks of militancy.

Rai along with being a brave soldier was a good leader and a motivator.

He organized these matches to keep the youth positively and proactively engaged ensuring that the youth do not stray into the ranks of militancy.
Under his leadership, the narrative in Tral was changing. He earned the admiration of all the administration for his meticulous planning
Unfortunately Rai died a day after he was conferred a bravery award, the Yudh Seva medal, for outstanding contribution in planning and conduct of operations including a gun battle with militants in south Kashmir last year.
Even though he was at the rank of a commanding officer, very senior rank, he chose to fight from the front with their men at all times.
His status on a social media site stated his mindset clearly: "Play your role in life with such passion, that even after the curtains come down, the applause doesn't stop."
Another unfortunate incident has taken place in Kashmir. A young mislead kashmiri youth, a suicide bomber rammed his explosives laden car into a CRPF bus killing all 44 young aspiring soldiers in it.
As the families grieve and the nation burns at the cruel act of savegery by which such brave youth of our country were lost, our heart and soul goes out to these soldiers who fight for us day and night .
This motivational post is for our brave soldiers fighting in Kashmir and to these 44 CRPF jawans. ..the applause will never stop for you.
