My dear friends, As I turn 60 today a new milestone has been reached in my busy blessed life. This is an opportune time to reflect and thank you all immensely for your prayers over the years and to humbly seek your continued blessings as I embark life as a young Senior Citizen. Time and tide wait for no man. Some say time flies when one is having fun.
My greatest Birthday wish is that the current pandemic, the worst crisis in my lifetime comes to a speedy end and people throughout the world can recover medically, economically, mentally and emotionally. A lot has changed since my last major milestone ten years ago when I reached 50. But may I assure you that as always, as Goa’s humble soldier, the task of serving the people is a commitment, which I will carry on till my very last breath. As I thread that path into a new year and new decade with God’s protection, renewed hope and even greater resolve,may those great words of Rabindranath Tagore guide and inspire me at all times: *Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high Where knowledge is free Where the world has not been broken up into fragments By narrow domestic walls Where words come out from the depth of truth Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit Where the mind is led forward by thee Into ever-widening thought and action Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.* *I look forward to the future for the best things are yet to come!* Aires Rodrigues Advocate High Court C/G-2, Shopping Complex Ribandar Retreat, Ribandar – Goa – 403006 Mobile No: 9822684372 Office Tel No: (0832) 2444012 Email: airesrodrigu...@gmail.com Or airesrodrig...@yahoo.com You can also reach me on Facebook.com/ AiresRodrigues Twitter@rodrigues_aires www.airesrodrigues.com
