Dreams and aspirations are all we have; some big, some small. However, turning them into reality takes dedication. That is exactly what Chandrika Rathod has done. Leaving school at the tender age of 18, Chandrika dreamt to be a receptionist and write poems. She even said that in a Harrow Times article entitled “Front page girl” 30 years ago.
Chandrika, now a receptionist at VW Citygate, daughter of current Secretary of Hindu Council Brent Mr. Manubhai Makwana and Mrs Jayaben Makwana, has achieved her dream with the launch of her second book entitled “Mother's Wisdom” on Saturday 9 September at Daal Roti. The event was well attended and with number of dignitaries including the Mayor of Brent, Council leader and C. B. Patel of Asian Voice & Gujarat Samachar.
Mother’s Wisdom is a powerful book of quotes that’s all about providing inspiring messages to guide the young minds. Mr Patel said that Chandrika was “idealistic, creative and was touched by her poetry”. Council leader, Muhammed Butt, said that it is “important today to give hope and encouragement to people to move forward”.
