O my motherland, I salute you..I bow in front of you.
I am a patriot. I love my country, I love being a responsible Indian citizen, hoenstly paying off my taxes, even if they go to the pockets of corrupt politicians, to the homes of lazy government officials, to the bank accounts of tyrranical policemen. I take care not to throw any garbage on the road, or spit out in public places. Neither do I break any traffic signals.
But today, this honest, law-abiding citizen is saddened. I am saddened to see my fellow countrymen become selfish to immoral extents. What else should be said, when murder culprits are left free to walk your streets, o mother, but the wutnesses are imprisoned? What else remains to be seen after watching students murder their own teachers, in the name of student rights? What else remains to be heard, after listening to our chosen leaders speak in parliament, using the worst possible language? What more remains to be understood after witnessing quotas and reservations being doled out, just to appease vote banks?
What has happened to the country that gave the word Gautam Buddha, Guru Nanak, Lord Mahavira, Mahatma Gandhi? Nothing...nothing has happened to the country, but its citizens have lost all sense of responsibility. Every act of opposition, every rally, every morcha...is no longer a democratic way of protesting...its just a way to serve someone;s self-interests...
We have turned into a country of selfish people, who care for no one but our own self.
Though there is still a ray of hope...there always is a ray of hope. It lies with you, it lies with me. Let us just work at making ourselves good, try to be peaceful ourselves. No mass movement can cure this country, each and every single one of us have to change. Including politicians, including bureaucrats, including the police, including everyone. Let us just remember gandhi's talisman...to remember the face of the poorest man we have seen..n think how our decision touches his life.
Let us not shy in paying our dues to our country, so what if we won;t be able to afford those mercs and cadillacs...we'll make our country the best place in the whole world

Lol... we seem to have gotten our roles reversed here - the usually optimistic perky Melody was all P-ed O and Ashish who is oftentimes blue (& maybe even black!) in spirits is all positive & encouraging.
I'm SOOOO glad to read this post. For our beloved Motherland. And for you Ashish. Keep it up!
the british empire left not because of the leaders, but because the leaders had millions of followers for whom their country was more important than their comforts
it takes just a lamp, to spread light around it.
rather than moan and being a negative or a zero, lets be atleast a one..
