All I Have Is Yours, Lord: A Reflection on Grace and Gratitude

THE CRA PERSPECTIVE All I Have Is Yours, Lord A reflection on grace, gratitude, humility and the beauty of surrender What do I have that I did not receive? What can I truly claim as mine apart from grace? There are moments when we need to pause and look beyond our achievements, possessions, abilities and ambitions. We may work hard for what we accomplish, make sacrifices for our families and spend years developing our talents. Yet, beneath every achievement lies a deeper truth: life itself is a gift. Our breath, our opportunities, our strength, our relationships and even the ability to begin again are blessings we often take for granted. Gratitude begins when we recognise that we are not the sole authors of everything good in our lives. The prayer “All I Have Is Yours, Lord” expresses a heart that no longer wishes to live only for possession, recognition or personal glory. It is the quiet acknowledgement that everything entr...

National Girl Child Day (India)

Empowering Daughters, Shaping the Nation

(24 January – India)

National Girl Child Day, observed in India on 24th January, is dedicated to promoting the rights, education, health, and dignity of every girl. Instituted by the Government of India in 2008, this day highlights the challenges girls continue to face and reinforces the need for equality, opportunity, and respect.

A nation truly progresses only when its daughters rise.

Why This Day Matters

Despite progress, many girls still encounter:

  • Limited access to education

  • Gender discrimination

  • Early marriage

  • Health and nutrition challenges

  • Safety concerns

National Girl Child Day brings these realities into focus and urges society to change attitudes, policies, and practices.

The Power of Educating a Girl

Educating a girl transforms generations:

  • She becomes economically independent

  • She raises healthier families

  • She strengthens communities

  • She contributes to national growth

  • She breaks cycles of poverty

When a girl learns, the world learns.

Beyond Survival—Toward Dignity

This day is not only about survival; it is about:

  • Self-respect

  • Freedom of choice

  • Safety and opportunity

  • Leadership and voice

  • Equal participation

Every girl deserves the right to dream and decide.

How We Can Observe

  • Encourage girls’ education

  • Speak against discrimination

  • Support women-led initiatives

  • Teach boys to respect equality

  • Celebrate the achievements of girls

  • Create safe and inclusive spaces

Change begins at home, in schools, and in communities.

A Thought to Remember

A girl is not a burden.
She is potential.
She is strength.
She is the future.

Conclusion

National Girl Child Day reminds us that empowering girls is not charity—it is justice. When girls are educated, respected, and protected, nations prosper.

Let every daughter rise.
Let every dream breathe.
Let equality lead.

NOTICE • CONNECT • COMMUNICATE • RESPECT A Look Can Speak Without Words Imagine entering a room where someone looks up, makes brief eye contact and greets you with a natural smile. You may feel acknowledged and welcome before the conversation has even begun. Now imagine someone fixing an unbroken gaze on you, narrowing their eyes and refusing to look away. The same eyes that can communicate attention may now make you feel uncomfortable, challenged or intimidated. What changed? The eyes themselves did not change. The duration of the gaze, facial expression, relationship, situation and surrounding behaviour changed its possible meaning. Eye conta...

The Sunk Cost Fallacy: When to Let Go and Move Forward

THE CRA PERSPECTIVE ✦ PSYCHOLOGY • DECISION-MAKING • PERSONAL GROWTH THE SUNK COST FALLACY When Letting Go Becomes the Wisest Decision Why do we continue investing in something that no longer serves us? Explore the psychology of sunk costs, the trap of escalating commitment and a practical way to make better decisions about your future. RECOGNISE • REASSESS • RELEASE • REDIRECT The Question That Can Change Your Next Decision Have you ever continued watching a film you disliked simply because you had already paid for the ticket? Have you spent more money repairing something that might be better replaced? Have you stayed with a course, project or commitment mainly because you had already invested years of effort in it? Perhaps you have told yourself, “I have already come this far. I cannot stop now.” That sentence can be harmless when it encourages perseverance through a temporary difficulty. But it can become costly when it prevents you from recognising that circum...
