11. Message from the President:
The President shared a thoughtful message:
Be like a pencil and an eraser. Mistakes made with a pencil (you) can be corrected with an eraser (your friend), but a pen (an arrogant person) leaves permanent marks without allowing anybody to correct.
He further he said:
If once we hurt others, even after many apologies, the original harmony may not fully return. Just as a neat plain white paper, when folded irrgularly many times, never regains its original plain and smoothness back again. Hence, our actions should be mindful and considerative while dealing with people around.
