"The Seed of Hope"
In a small, drought-stricken village in India, a young girl named Asha lived with her grandfather, a retired farmer. The land had been dry for years, and most families had either moved away or given up on farming altogether.
One day, Asha found an old pouch of seeds in her grandfather’s barn—seeds of a native tree that once grew abundantly in the area. When she showed them to her grandfather, he chuckled softly, “Those haven’t sprouted in decades. The land won’t support them now.”
But something in Asha wouldn’t let go of the idea. She picked a spot near a dry riverbed and planted the seeds, one by one, watering them with what little she could spare from her daily collection. Every day, people laughed at her, telling her she was wasting her time. But she kept going.
Months passed. Nothing happened. Still, Asha continued her ritual, whispering to the soil, believing in the unseen.
Then, one day, a tiny green shoot pushed its way through the cracked earth. Asha’s eyes filled with tears. Hope had taken root.
Over the next few years, more saplings grew. The roots of the trees helped hold moisture, eventually attracting rain clouds. Slowly, the river trickled back to life. Birds returned. So did families. The village, once forgotten, began to thrive again.
People now call it Asha Gram—the Village of Hope.
Malala Yousafzai — The Girl Who Stood Up
Malala was just 15 when she was shot by the Taliban in Pakistan for speaking out about girls' right to education. Most thought she wouldn’t survive.
But she did.
Instead of silencing her, the attack made her voice louder. Malala recovered, moved to the UK, and continued to advocate for education worldwide. At 17, she became the youngest Nobel Peace Prize laureate.
Today, she’s inspired millions with her unwavering hope in a better, fairer world.
“One child, one teacher, one book, one pen can change the world.” – Malala
Fight Song : Rachel Platten
Like a small boat on the ocean
Sending big waves into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion
And all those things I didn't say
Were wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
This is my fight song (hey)
Take back my life song (hey)
Prove I'm alright song (hey, ha)
My power's turned on (hey)
Starting right now, I'll be strong (hey)
I'll play my fight song (hey)
And I don't really care if nobody else believes (ha)
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me
Losing friends and I'm chasing sleep
Everybody's worried 'bout me
In too deep, say I'm in too deep (I'm in too deep)
And it's been two years, I miss my home
But there's a fire burning in my bones
Still believe, yeah, I still believe
And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream 'em loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time?
Chorus:
Like a small boat on the ocean
Sending big waves into motion
Like how a single word
Can make a heart open
I might only have one match
But I can make an explosion
Chorus
No, I've still got a lot of fight left in me
