YES. I met Dr. Kalam.
I went, I saw and I was won over by a frail man with long hair and a BIG HEART.
The house where he lives is huge. I had to pass through several security rings before I could reach him. I got through because Dr. Kalam loves children and children love me (don't you? I would simply fall apart if you said you didn't!).
Dr. Kalam said he was happy that children have found a friend like me, or something of that sort. I was so awed by his presence that for a while nothing that he was saying registered. I just gaped. He liked my looks. No doubt about it. He held me close and asked the photographer to take snaps. I was thrilled when he said he would visit me in cyberspace to take a look at my Internet version.
Dr. Kalam expressed confidence in the children of our country. Our kids can achieve anything, he asserted, adding that they should not bother too much about how badly some of the grown ups in public life behave but instead resolve to be clean in their own dealings with others.That made me feel good because I’m both fun to be with, and clean. Don’t you agree?
