Answers
I will Fly” is a speech which is delivered by Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam. In this speech, Kalam says that the youths do not want to afraid of their future because they have an “ignited mind” with which they can conquer anything. He is going to talk about “I am born with wings”.
Before Kalam is going to deliver a speech on“I am born with wings”, he gives an account of an incident which happened in the past. Once he went to inaugurate a programme which is named as “Sasthrayaan” which means “the propagation of Science”. This programme selects two thousand students from a village and make them capable to work as engineers, scientists, civil servants, managers and doctors. For the inaugural address, he was talking about the topic, “Science Empowers the Nation”.
During the question answer session, a teenager asked a twisting question to Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam. The teenager told him that he did not have self confidence. His ambition is to become a marine engineer. He wants to achieve his dream and wants to succeed in his career. In the end, he asks Kalam how can he achieve his dream.
Hearing this question, Abdul Kalam told that the teenage boy echoed the voices of millions of children all over India. Many kids do not know what will happen to their future and they have a confusion whether they can achieve their dream without any hindrance. Then he recites a poem which is titled as “I will fly” which tells that every human has “potential”, “goodness”, “confidence”, imaginative power and has the right to conquer their dream because as the poem suggests “I have wings, I will fly”.
Then Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam says that everyone is unique. Most of the children has a wish “to be unique”. But it is the society including parents does comparison of one individual with another. The result is that everyone becomes bandwagons, and a few people will be unique. So Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam end his speech by saying that the greatest challenge of today's generation is how to create “a UNIQUE YOU!”.
