Happy Birthday 🎉🎂 to the braveheart Neerja Bhanot, Mam!
Your kindness, presence of mind, commitment to duty, and selflessness have taught me so much. You are a true hero 🙇 and an everlasting inspiration to many.
For those who may not know her story— Neerja Bhanot was the flight purser on Pan Am Flight 73, which was hijacked at Jinnah International Airport, Karachi, by terrorists. The ordeal lasted nearly 17 hours. In a moment of courage and presence of mind, Neerja opened the emergency exit and began helping passengers escape. Sadly, she was shot while shielding three children, but because of her bravery, around 375 lives were saved.
What I’ve learned from her life is the importance of courage—standing strong no matter who is in front of you. Her calmness in comforting passengers during chaos, her selflessness in putting others before herself, and her sense of duty make her a true role model.
Her mother once recalled telling Neerja, “If anything happens, you escape first.” To this, Neerja replied: “I will die, but I won’t run.”
A hero not just in words, but in spirit, forever. ✨
I used to think to hold people in our life we need to be always understanding. But in the process of understanding ...don't lose yourself. People will not praise your efforts rather question you.If you start asking them to understand you in some time at least. I would say value yourself like how you do others. It all starts with you❤️.
