Since I've decided to finally do something instead of the usual moaning and sighing after checking the news channel or reading the paper, maybe I should start off by saying that I fully believe we can bring the change we need.
In India, we have a huge population, a population which is thirsting to emerge as the shining star. We're the land of millions of dreams, literally. Its just that while we're brilliant and want to show it, we ignore the small things that keep us from doing so. I'm not saying that nothing is possible in India, on the contrary I'm saying that everything is. We just need to realize the things that will eventually bring our downfall. We actually do realize those things, but the problem is that we DON'T do anything about it. For a day or so, it remains hot news on all the news stations, with raging debates and fingers pointing towards all directions. In the end, we just sigh and say "This is India."
My ultimate goal in life is to stop that attitude of ours. We should be able to do something. We should be able to stop our enemies once for all, instead of the mightily popular game of You-Poke_Me_I-Poke-You-We-Both-Bleed. The main things keeping us from being the best is a HUGE bunch of unpatriotic politicians, stupid superstitions, and our prevailing notion that we're stupid snake charmers!
We have to move on! We need to be able to go out boldly and say that we are NOT dumb people and that we ARE the best.
We need to push away the barriers of religion, language, caste, age or anything else stopping us, and say that we are one. We need confidence and faith in our power, or nothing will be possible.
That will be just the beginning.
