I thought the meaning of Independence is being by self but may be people of India took it so firmly, because India always shows its palm WHITE at World Bank and BLACK at Swiss Bank. People took it to that extent so that their fore families can live with what they have now. And I think it would have been better if we are ruled rather than being doomed.
When I hear the word Independence, what strikes me is what I pledged when I was a child, "India is my country and all Indians are my brothers and sisters." But now I think I have to pledge I'm Hindu or Muslim or Sikh or may be Andhraid or Telanganaid.
I thought divide and conquer rule is to develop India but I never thought that, it was intended to divide people of India and then conquer them. You can easily see that in politics. No matter what you do to your village or colony but what they see is, are you from my caste or have you given me money or at least a quarter. Being in urban area, you might say, grow up and India is on its way to wake up. And I say, I was waiting for that since 22 years.
I didn't come here to either blame someone or accuse someone but I'm here to say that love your nation more than what you do to your family and when you start doing that, what you shower is love and what you harvest is peace. And keep this in your mind,There was a semicolon on your wrist which says,
"A life that could've been ended." "But, hadn't been."
Don't be apart, but be a part. - - Happy Independence Day :)
