We have lost someone dear..

It is not very often that a death of someone we do not know personally burdens us much. But then to any Indian, Abdul Kalam was not someone whom you did not know personally. He was an icon, someone whom you could really look up to. Someone whom we could all aspire to be, a better, noble human being. And yet someone who seemed so approachable and close to you. A person whom you genuinely wished would live forever, as a guide, a teacher.

India has indeed lost a dear son.
