I’ve a soft cushion job and other than writing about society, politics, and the events that impact the world around me. I rarely do anything constructive about it. All in all I am living life of a shameless average Indian guy who cares about the society, his country, but does absolutely nothing about it. He is too lost in his daily chores and his comfortable life and cosy corner cubicle (I don’t have a office.)
The country was bombed about a dozen times last year. I am talking about the dozen which made news. I don’t care and media doesn’t takes notice if 1000 other people died in small blasts. After the Bangalore, Ahmadabad, and Delhi blasts it was 26/11 blasts at Mumbai that helped the nation to get together for a couple of days. Only, a couple of days.
The question is: Has anything changed after that? Am I more patriot? Am I doing enough for the country to make it more socially responsible. The answer is NO.
This is my personal story. But it is the same story with 100 thousands of us. In fact, 10s of my friends are discussing or have gone for jobs overseas to more “stable” countries and “self dependent” economies in Europe. Is their anything wrong in doing this?
NO I guess. If you’ve ChankyaNiti one of the best text on politics this act is justified.
Chankya says:
जिस देश मैं राजा अपनी प्रजा की रक्षा नही कर सकता
जिस देश मैं प्रजा अपनी और अपने पडोसियों की जुरुरतो का ध्यान नही रखते
जिस देश मैं डर के रहना पड़ता है
उस देश को छोड़ देने मैं हे समझदारी है
for my non “shudh” Hindi speaking friends this roughly means that It is better to leave a country where the rulers cannot defend its citizen, where citizen doesn’t care about society, where people like in fear then live there.
Am I offending tons of you. Well, that doesn’t bother me. For all I know, if you’ll ask your self centered, easy going mind you’ll also agree.
How does it change.
Like Sid says in RDB: कोई भी देश perfect नही होता उसे perect बनाना पड़ता है . Something needs to be done. I really think and dream that it should be me. But shameless that I am, I keep thinking.
With all the religous organizations disrupting peace of the country and terrorist or freedom fighters like they call themselves to top it all the future of this country can can go either ways.
On one hand I see me and friends who are minting money and are using their tiny brains to earn more next year, and on the other hand I see people who barely live. They actually survive!
So how will be make it big – God knows 
For what I feel, the growth of this nation is like me driving in Indian traffic. It is chaotic. But, I am confident that I’ll get to my destination.
