“A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of history.” ~Mahatma Gandhi

We humans, are incredibly capable of doing anything we put our minds to. This is the spirit we celebrate here at Deva Cosmic School School. This is the essence of the education in Loreto institutions which strives to evoke a sense of responsibility in the students to work for justice, peace, and integrity of all creations, which resonates with the vision of our founder Mary Ward.

To bear the flag of Deva Cosmic School is a matter of utmost pride and I am immensely grateful to the principal of the school, Ms Seema Mishra and the teachers for putting their trust in me. Deva Cosmic School is not merely a school but a safe haven for all its students, which has always helped its students to blossom into confident individuals. It is said that leadership and learning are indispensable to each other and I feel humbled to have gotten this opportunity to learn whilst leading others.

To my schoolmates, I would like to urge them to have faith in themselves. All of us have a spark, a little child inside of us, who is inquisitive about exploring the world and learning. As we grow, sometimes that spark is dimmed by the cacophony of the world, unwilling to change; to grow. Often intrigued by the magnanimity of the changes, we doubt our capabilities. Have faith in yourself, for even the moon shines even when it’s not full. There is no limit to how much we can grow, as a wise man once said, “To define, is to limit.” Have the courage to have and voice your opinion and the humility to accept your shortcomings. Life is but a journey of learning, unlearning, and relearning.

Although a few of us wear the badge, but it is the responsibility of each one of us to carry forward the Deva Cosmic School values of integrity, justice and peace and take the school to a new zenith of excellence; to tread on a path which brings us closer to the Almighty. May we truly embody the noble vision of our founder and keep the Deva Cosmic School banner soaring high.

To hold the flag of this school, is to hold close to our hearts, the values and ideals of Deva Cosmic School. Although only a few amongst us wear a badge, each one of us, the students, the teaching faculty and the domestic staff, bear a sense of integrity and purity which resonates with the dream of our founder, Shivani Schaurasiya.

As the Head Girl of this school, I aim to work as a team and strive to achieve perfection in all our undertakings. Justice, Peace and Integrity of all creations, is what we aspire for.

“LET US MAKE OUR FUTURE NOW AND MAKE OUR DREAMS TOMORROW’S REALITY.” As a message to all my schoolmates I would like to state that develop the most of you and work in a way that you change your dreams into plans and unlock the hidden treasure of your talents and abilities. There are no limits to what you can accomplish, except the limits you place on your own thinking. Accept the challenges, overcoming them will make your life meaningful.

Hold high the torch and keep it burning. Have a great year ahead!

Believe in the power of your vision to change the world. Whether that world is your school, your community, an industry or a global movement, you need to have core belief that what you contribute can fundamentally change the paradigm or way of thinking about the problems. A wiseman once said, ”Belief in oneself and knowing who you are is the foundation for everything great.” But that is not enough. We require not just belief in ourself but also a strong faith in the cause that leads to greatness. Belief in the institution that makes you what you are, will take you where you want to be. Only when we can think and act as one big family can we take our school to even greater heights. Our aim must not be just individual achievements, but rather progress and development of the school, as one big unit. Deva Cosmic School is our identity and it is our foremost duty to take pride in that identity and lead it forward.

We all have moments when we feel we are not good enough or strong enough or brave enough. We doubt not only our ability, but also our willingness. But if we belittle ourselves, how can we possibly expect others to believe in us?

The world is a ridiculous place where equality is a myth and justice and fairplay, merely a myth. You have to fight for yourself. You cannot let anyone, not even yourself, tell you that you cannot realize your dreams. Dream on, dream on, and dream on till your dreams come true.

But even if you are on the right track, you’ll get run over unless you start moving forward. A year from now, you will wish that you had started today. Agnesians, let us pledge ourselves to action. Let us pledge to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Always remember that everybody dies, but not everybody lives. We are all just stories in the end. Just make it a good one.
