INDEPENDENCE-It is the Freedom from the control, influence, support, aid, or the like, of others.
Being independent means we are free, we can take our own decisions and we can do whatever we want to...
When we are dependent on someone we can blame or give credit to the person who is influencing our life. But when we are independent we are responsible for our actions. If we are doing anything good we are to be appreciated and if we are committing any mistakes we are to be blamed. Like every coin independence has two sides. At one side it’s the feeling of freedom and on other side many responsibilities.
It has been 65years now that we are independent. So many years back people of India saw the dream, dream of being independent.
Our tricolor flag symbolizes dream our ancestors had for the future of our country.
"Deep saffron" at the top, white in the middle, and green at the bottom. In the center, there is a navy blue wheel with twenty-four spokes, known as the Ashoka Chakra.
The saffron stands for purity and spirituality, white for peace and truth, green for fertility and prosperity and the wheel for justice and the motion.
This is what our ancestors had thought about the future of the nation-- where there is, purity, spirituality, peace, prosperity, justice and motion means the changes, progress.
But today after so many years of independence do you feel we have been able to achieve any of these things?
Today instead of purity and spirituality we are debating on casteism and racism, instead of peace we have terror, instead of prosperity we have poverty &corruption, and instead of justice we have illegality. And do you think we have progressed further? A wheel who can take us forward can take us backward also and i think we are moving in a backward direction.
We became independent, but do you think we took the right path to go ahead so that we can give the justice to our flag, to the dreams of our ancestors?
Before our independence we could blame britishers for the situation of our country but now whom to blame?
We are now under the influence of more critical things like corruption, injustice, poverty and terrorism.
And what do we as a citizen? Now we blame our politician, our government. We give many excuses. But if anyone to blame is we.
Definitely today is an imp day coz today we became independent. We should celebrate our freedom but today we have to sit and reflect what we did in the past, and how we can make our future better for ourselves and our generation.
We always talk about changing the country but that will not happen till the time we will not make changes to ourselves.
How many of us have given 100-200rs extra just to avoid ganapati queue and go and take darshan immediately. Who has time it’s better to give 100rs and take darshan. We have given money for the donation for the admission of our kids.We Purchased tickets of the movies in the black. Give some extra money in government offices so that our work gets done fast.
Is it not the corruption which we are encouraging?
How many times we end up in the fight on the road on small things. We end up in physical violence with our friends, colleague,roadside people. We become aggressive on some sensitive topics.
Isn’t it the violence the terrorism which we going towards?
So many times we say that my religion is better than others or my god is great.
Isn’t it we forgetting spiritualism and forgetting that the god is one and encouraging casteism? We categories people so many times. By doing this we promote casteicm.
We consciously and unconsciously do all these things and promote them.
We who talk about female independence don’t teach our sons to prepare food and make our girl to learn that saying how much ever you study you will have to cook why we don’t do this with our sons?
We who talk about justice finds out the ways to support the wrong things our relatives or friends are doing. We give them concession.
So if we want to make changes in our country we will have to start form ourselves. We will have to improve first ourselves then our family, then our society and then only the nation will progress. Otherwise we will spoil the opportunity which we have got and we will keep on blaming one or the other person for our situation.
I will say that today is the perfect day; we will all make little contribution form our side to improve little things in ourselves. See that, such a big difference our little efforts will make.
Don't be IN-DEPENDENCE GO FOR INDEPENDENCE
