Patriotism... Can anyone define me what's PATRIOTISM is? Can anyone lemme know whoz a true PATRIOT?? I royally failed in getting an answer to these simple questions.
Yesterday, rather today morning (12 am), i was chatting with a friend of mine and this question popped up... We discussed lotsa things - can NRIs claim that they are patriotic? Can I claim to be a patriot, just coz' i wish all my friends on 15th Aug and 26th Jan?? These and lots of other things. But neither of us got satisfactory answers.
I can write a mini-book about the things mentioned above. But, on this day, i wanna pledge that I wont be a patriot for namesake, but definitely will do my bit to this wonderful country in my own possible way, which i have thought of.
It really hurts, when someone u know well, comes up with a question "are you done with your patriotic messages, Raju?", just coz i wished her with coloured messages twice within half an hour for the independence day. I care a damn for such people:|:|
anyways lemme end this short n confused post on a nice note :
jab desh mien thi diwali...
voh khel rahe they holi...
jab hum baithey they gharon mien..
voh jhel rahey they goli..
they dhanya jawan voh apne...
thi dhanya voh unki jawani....
jo shahid hue hain unki
zara yaad karo qurbani...
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY
