| Hi Folks |
 |
Derived from the Latin “agito” or “I move”, the symbol of the Paralympic Games is composed of three ‘agitos’ coloured red, blue and green encircling a single point on a white background. ‘Spirit in Motion’ is the motto of the recently concluded games in London, 2012. It signifies the winning spirit of the disabled or ‘differently enabled’ sportspersons, against all odds and obstacles. For many, their life itself is an obstacle but they have converted it into an opportunity, due to sheer determination, never-say-die attitude and above all self-belief. |
| “Obstacles are what we see when we take our eyes off the goals” said Joseph Cossman. Let us invoke the blessings of the ‘Remover of all Obstacles’, the elephant-faced Lord Ganesha to help us stay focused on our goals, whatever they may be. |
