I know, I know, I am about 23 hours late to post it. But I had to think, contemplate about what to post.
Should I post my million smileys and a few patriotic videos? Should I represent the two-sided development story. Should I talk about poverty, farmer suicides and buffer stocks? Should I talk about freedom and people power or should I talk about how human rights problems exist.
Should I talk about our wonderful history and the unity or should I talk about communalism, racism, sectarianism and hatred for each other? Should I talk about the Indian cricket team or about the state of hockey? Should I talk about the tigers or about cows and dogs? Should I talk about terrorism or the BPO story? Should I talk about our wonderful culture or about the pseudo-culturalists who don’t understand even as much as I do?
Should I talk about our democracy or about corruption? Should I talk about the wonders of our media or about the underground world? Should I talk about the men and women who protect the country or about those who wear white clothes and launder black money?
I can, we can talk about all that and much more. That’s what defines India.
Nice thoughts on the Republic day 🙂 My biggest joy in our country is our empowering constitution. We are truly a Democracy… young but growing every year. A very happy republic day to you!
My biggest joy in the country today is the fact that we are progressing even though are governments are sleeping. the “Sleeping tiger” is now awakening …
Its only a matter of time until when our government would help out 😉
60 years have been difficult, but like they say the night is darkest just before the dawn. The Dawn I believe is coming
Happy Republic day, Vichu. What I like most about India – its VIBRANT! Despite everything going against it.. look at the awful weather, the infrastructure, the dirty politics..you name it, and we are plagued by it.. now, DESPITE all this, we are such a happy and vibrant people! Jai Ho 🙂
