The Bigger & More Intimidating Picture

 
On the 14th of August, 1947, at the strike of midnight, there came into existence a new nation, which aimed at being progressive and then progressed one fine day, aimed at satisfying it's people one day and then eventually became self-satisfied, aimed at being strong enough to fight against all odds and then became a super-power one fateful day! Ladies and gents, I present to you, my pride, India.

India has risen, literally, from the ashes! We were nothing but farmers in the older days, running the economy on "barter system". Today we run solely and heartily on the "BADA RUPAYYA"! The World Bank says that India is the second most stable economy after China. Multinational companies look upon India to keep their businesses in action! In this context, I think it is safe to say that we are undoubtedly on the path of progress, of development and I'd go further as to say that I earnestly believe that that day is not very far away when India becomes an economic prowess!

And since we are on the subject of being a prowess, I'd also like to reinstate the fact that India is not much further away from the hour of turning into a security and intelligence prowess as well, a stronghold! And I would like to believe that, albeit the present circumstances. Because a belief makes a man change his productive thoughts into right actions! As Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam says, "You have to dream before your dreams can come true", so we have to dream about a GREAT INDIA and then eventually, consequently, soon that dream will change into a solid reality! And as a backup for my belief, I'd not only like to keep my thoughts positive for the government's proceedings and actions, but I'd also like to lend my help and my time in assisting the officials to get the things in India right! Because the freedom of a nation means being free from corruption, terrorism, poverty and slavery! This is the oath the people took on the fateful night of 14th August, 1947, which dawned a new country on the 15th of August, 1947! It's been 64 years since then and we have forgotten the logical basis of freedom. Being an Indian doesn't mean that we can just enjoy what a thousands of other Indians died for 64 years ago. Being an Indian means that we have to stand for  our country in it's dire times of need and do anything then that it demands. Being an Indian doesn't mean that you can spit, pee on, litter the same footpaths that are used by other fellow and poor Indians as their sleeping addas. Being an Indian doesn't mean that you can just stand up at a random time of the day and blame the government for getting itself into a debt! Being an Indian means to work by actions and speech for the betterment, peace and equality in India. Being an Indian means fighting against terrorism, internal or external, at an individual's levels first. Being an Indian means positively dreaming and changing that dream into actions for the DEVELOPED INDIA!

I don't know abut you, but 20 years from today I wholeheartedly wish of breathing the air of, thanking the Almighty for a developed, strong, anti-corruption, anti-terrorism, a believer in equality and an active INDIA!

May God bless the nation of India abundantly!
Jai Hind!
