"Free"-dom of minds
Msg beeped today morning which made me awake.....which read "Happy Independence Day " (If u r married than plz ignore this msg :-D) All through the day SMSes thronged and all the ebullient spirits were suddenly awakened...(which will last for a day) Our patroitic and feeling of nationalism spurts only on national festivals. Being patroitic and remembering our national heroes on these days are in vogue today..It has became more of a day to flaunt tri colours on face,putting symbolic flags, wearing khadi clothes, attending I-day functions and playing prtriotic songs on gadgets.. (though just for a day) Hypocracy has always being in our blood whether we accept it or not.
* Have I utilised my freedom in contribution towards progress of my country?
* Have I made myself civilised enough?
* Have I paid my taxes and aloofed myself from every kind of corruption?
* Have I tried to kept my country clean and abiding my duties?
* Have I broaden my thoughts and given space to other's freedom.?
* Have I understood the responsibility that comes along freedom.?
* Have I made myself free from all discrimination in true sense?
* Have I made myself free ? (Quote from Jaybhai's sunday column aptly fits "Khari swatantrata e ke jyare bijane bahar 'HA' kaheti vakhate apani jatne andarthi 'NA' n kahevi pade!)
On this day make a thought is India free from poverty & corruption? Are we free from rigidity & discrimination in true sense? Are we following everything what we are showing? Are we free from our selfish self centeredness? Have we raised any voice against injustice? Are we true to our conscience? Are we really always meant what we express on independence day?Are we free from hypocracy that I am free from above all?
If above answers are in affirmative then go on... my dear fellow countrymen...
"HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY"
