Never drink and drive - please.......

A very nice poem, read it at least once............


I went to a party Mom,
 I remembered what you said.
 You told me not to drink, Mom,
 So I drank soda instead.

 I really felt proud inside, Mom,
 The way you said I would.
 I didn't drink and drive, Mom,
 Even though the others said I should.

 I know I did the right thing, Mom,
 I know you are always right.
 Now the party is finally ending, Mom,
 As everyone is driving out of sight.


 As I got into my car, Mom,
 I knew I'd get home in one piece.
 Because of the way you raised me,
 So responsible and sweet.


 I started to drive away, Mom,
 But as I pulled out into the road,
 The other car didn't see me, Mom,
 And hit me like a load.


 As I lay there on the pavement, Mom,
 I hear the policeman say,
 "The other guy is drunk," Mom,
 And now I'm the one who will pay.


 I'm lying here dying, Mom....
 I wish you'd get here soon.
 How could this happen to me, Mom?
 My life just burst like a balloon.


 There is blood all around me, Mom,
 And most of it is mine.
 I hear the medic say, Mom,
 I'll die in a short time..

 I just wanted to tell you, Mom,
 I swear I didn't drink.
 It was the others, Mom.
 The others didn't think.

 He was probably at the same party as I.
 The only difference is, he drank
 And I will die.

 Why do people drink, Mom?
 It can ruin your whole life.
 I'm feeling sharp pains now.
 Pains just like a knife.


 The guy who hit me is walking, Mom,
 And I don't think it's fair.
 I'm lying here dying
 And all he can do is stare.

 Tell my brother not to cry, Mom.
 Tell Daddy to be brave.
 And when I go to heaven, Mom,
 Put "GOOD BOY " on my grave.

 Someone should have told him, Mom,
 Not to drink and drive.
 If only they had told him, Mom,
 I would still be alive.

 My breath is getting shorter, Mom.
 I'm becoming very scared.
 Please don't cry for me, Mom.
 When I needed you, you were always there.

 I have one last question, Mom.
 Before I say good bye.
 I didn't drink and drive,
 So why am I the one to die?

 Someone took the effort to write this poem. So please, forward this
 To as many people as you can. And see if we can get a chain going
 Around the world that will make people understand that
Don't mix drinking and driving.

 PLEASE DO THE FAVOR.

Kulsoom Rizavi Grassroots student awardee Kulsoom Rizavi of Lucknow gave entire credit of this huge feat to her mother who inspired her to invent the ... “ posture correcting chair ” and encouraged her to participate in IGNITE-2013 .Kulsoom said when she was in class 5, first got the idea., She is recipient of IGNITE-2013 award at class V from former president of India late Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam for her innovation. To escape elder’s scolding for not sitting in right postures, Kulsoom along with fellow awardees Tarun Anand of Ghaziabad and Sunvi Agarwal of Chandigarh have independently conceived the idea of “posture correcting chair”. A chair with Bio-sensors which will alert those sitting in wrong posture to be corrected to the proper form by beeping and vibrating until one sits properly. It can also be connected to a computer, to fetch data of how long one is in wrong posture. She has dreamed to go on a world tour. “I want to travel around the world and learn about the cultu

Sandip Mitra HR-Professional   This time I was really confused what should be my topic of writing. I was thinking about several subjects and trying to select one of them. In the morning of 15 th August, like all of us, I was very happy and enjoying our Independence Day. The day is very emotional also for us, as we feel love and pride for our country. Suddenly a point struck in my mind. What about other days of the year? Do we feel the same love for our country? I feel that, most of us like to criticize our nation for its various problems and drawbacks throughout the year. We just put examples of other countries and compare with them. The youth which is our future also do the same thing. They think that there is not much opportunity to build their career in our country. Most of them want to move abroad to fulfill their dreams. Yes, we have many problems; we are lagging behind than other developed countries. Numerous people do not get proper food, drinking water, educat
