Now back to title. Age is not a bar to accomplish our dreams. No matter how old you are if you have the confidence and will to succeed then do not wait, just go ahead. A simple person has lots of dreams but he can't accomplish it may be due to financial constraints or more responsibilities.

And once you are free from all this you are already aged and finally dump your dreams in a corner. There are peoples who created milestones in history in their old age. So then it is a proven fact that anyone with an aim can break the barriers for their dream to come true.

Why I choose this topic?

Simple. I have a whatsapp school group. And all of us keep exchanging the happenings and new updates every now and them. About children their career erc. As we left our school in 90's all of them have grown up children.

Recently one of my from the group won in Chicago marathon and last week, another friend proved her eligibility in zonal badminton tournament. Now she is being selected for the national level which will be conducted within six months from now. Having grown up children, they never kept their dream as a dream, they chased it and finally won. Here you can call life as a race. What a pleasant achievement.

Let.me bring you another example. Recently film fare awards at national level were announced. Here each celebrity winner had an honour to receive the certificate of cash prize and medal from The President of India.

One of the proud recipient was a lady from our neighbouring district but from the same state. She bagged the award for singing.

A short synopsis of this great lady. She is a farmer in a small village working for daily wages. She is in her 60's. Her main interest was to sing folk songs for her fellow members while harvesting just for the purpose of entertainment.

Accidentally one of the film producers happened to hear about her and gave her an opportunity to sing in his film. A lady secluded to her village, who is unaware of the big world or happenings around, finally took up the opportunity to sing in the movie. Her biggest asset was her smile. She kept smiling throughout even in pain.

An interesting fact was the movie for which she sang became the biggest hit along with her song. And the well known hero of the film when to meet her at her village. When he asked "Do you know who Iam"?. She smiled saying 'No". Such was her innocence.

From a small village where she was confined in a small house, travelled to the capital city New Delhi to receive the award from the President and now to get International recognition she is been invited abroad.

A beautiful and true story of this wonderful old woman who keeps laughing always and captured the hearts of many through her innocent smile, is named as Nanjiamma.

This is really heart touching to read. This shows that you can achieve your dream no matter your age as long as you do not give up and you're ready to keep going and running the race. I am proud of the old woman who became known for her talent.
