Think about the years of your life in India after 2000, we have seen remarkable progress here, from insane technological progression to a thriving cultural revolution.
Yet there is so much to achieve, new boundaries to push and drive at the cutting edge. We need to improve the living conditions of billions of Indians and become the bearers of true value enrichment.
We often speak about what this country can do for ourselves and that’s a fair ask. But perhaps it is not about what this country can do for you but what you can do for this country.
In 1967, my grandfather would have been toiling under the relentless sun or facing even the freezing chills of the Himalayas to grow crops. Today, I can grab a quick Uber to the airport, have an overpriced meal and fly to wherever I want.
In the grand scheme of things, our time has just begun. We’ve always been the underdogs, the odds stacked against us and yet we persevere.
Chandrayaan-3 is on its trajectory to the moon and perhaps as a show of unifying force it is a reminder that this country is on its way to something we haven’t witnessed before.
Perhaps, to sit down and tune out the negativity is best, just focus on being a better version of yourself and inspire others to do the same.
We are the kids who no one expected much from, yet we worked on ourselves and became so good that we cannot be missed.
Just keep moving forward.
Some Monday love from salt. :)
Good one. A lot us on this platform got here because of the grit and the sacrifices made along the way. Of course luck has played a role. We can complain all we like and be negative, but no one can takeaway where we have gotten to. :)
Also in our own capacity we should think about giving back.
Bro. It's a crime to not add a tl:dr after such a long post.
I know. I pondered over a TLDR. But this is a post that really needs to be relished slowly.
True. I agree with most of the points. Though, some of it is just due to technological advancements. I remember my grandma saying that the whole gurgaon-faridabad belt used to be a forested area and farmland. Now it's full of fortune 500 companies offices. I just worry for the future that we are like the US stuck in this capitalistic money rat race and due to our huge population we may never get out of it.
