Dear Friends,
It is a proud moment for me to take reins of this prestigious District,
which has the distinction of being led by the finest gems & jewels. I
seek this opportunity to welcome you all in the coming Inner Wheel
year. Inner Wheel is like a big joint family; a sharing of all aspects of
human emotions with a human face – be it love, joy or sorrow. These
emotions, in some form or the other, have always reflected in working
of the clubs as well as the District. Therefore, I urge that whatever we
do, we must do with a ‘human face’
IIW theme for the coming year is -
“Commit with
conviction, compassion, consistency”
If we ponder for a while on our theme we have been given the pillars on which the very
essence of Inner Wheel stands. Absolute conviction to help society, compassion for the
weak and helpless, consistency in direction, and above all a high level of commitment are
the only tools that will enable us to attain the success we seek. An individual commitment to
a group effort – that is what makes a team work, an organization run, a society function, a
civilization evolve. Unless commitment is made, there are only promises and hopes; but no
plans. I would thus say that when work, commitment and pleasure all become one and we
reach that deep well where passion lives, everything becomes possible.
As Swami Vivekananda said
“Do not lower your goals to the level of your abilities.
Instead, raise your abilities to the height of your goals”
With best wishes for a successful year ahead,
Meenakshi Dayal.
