Sikhs are supposed to be leaders, right? Well, I'm running for president of my school's student council (and I'm the only Indian at my school :roll: ). But, I was just wondering if any of you have ever run for a leadership role such as this and can give me some tips about campaigning, etc., and especially on what to say in my speech to make it real good. I want to win because I love my school and it will look good on Sikhs in my community too, I bet. Thanks in advance! SYM

chardi kala! (i know thats 2 words, but i guess i cant count.... ) anyway if it HAS 2 b 1 word.... i would say acceptance or generosity.... chardikala every1!! haha sry i couldnt resist... ~SYM

when i am in times of sadness i find it helpful to think about how lucky i m and how thankful i should be...i know its hard not to feel sorry for urself and ur situation, which i know is not the greatest, but try thinking about all the things that you have which others dont....like you have a computer (or acess to one anyway, as u posted this message)...and you have a wide group of ppl available AND WILLING 2 help u online!! im sure if u start thinking about it, you will realize how much u have and maybe u will begin to feel better...anyway feel free to e-mail me and talk about how ur doing! Chardi kala -- keep in high spirits, girlfriend! 8) ~SYM

I think it might have been Nanak Naam Jahaz Hai or something along that line...i remember the guy gets blind plus the army or something sings deh shiva...if that helps???
