Heart Of The Unsung Heroes

“There are people who make things happen, there are people who watch things happen, and there are people who wonder what happened. To be successful, you need to be a person who makes things happen.”  ― Jim Lovell

Today, I am talking about the people who work for others without caring for their own happiness or life. These kind of people bring an unconditional joy and smile on our faces with their genuine selflessness and empathy. 

These unsung heroes are the ones who are always caring and compassionate. They give smile to millions of people. This world is not worth appreciating without such unsung heroes. It could be your friend, father, mother, sister, wife, husband, dentist, patriot, veteran, a soldier or even a stranger. 

Their job is also tough as it needs more strength and courage to get through the austerity and adversities of life. They are the people who always lend their helping hand and unconditional support when there seems no gleam of hope. 

There are millions of homeless people who have no clothes or do not get the privilege to have even the basic facilities. Millions die of starvation, cold or other erratic health disorders or lack of health coverage. We never forget to fight for our rights, but we must also not forget our duties towards others and be thankful to the Almighty for this life and scram our selfish ingrained beliefs.

The other day, I watched an awe-inspiring video about a poem on such unsung heroes, and today I feel delighted to share that video with all of you as a tribute to all the unsung heroes in our life. Take a look at the video below. Lastly, we all must appreciate such caregivers for their passion, zest and sacrifices by showing our true gratitude.

“Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.” –William Arthur Ward

"Steve Jobs" - A Book You Must Read


"Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do." — (Apple’s “Think Different” commercial, 1997)
