We are at the threshold of a mighty change. The whispering that has been there ever since the glorious day of 15th August, 1947 is now becoming a might roar. Gone are the days where we used to suffer in silence. We are no longer meek, we are ready to fight fire with fire if necessary. Gone are the days when we used to obey without questioning and now that we have started questioning everything, we are at a fork, one which goes back to how things were before, and one where we the change we all desperately need. The future of the nation depends on us, the Gen X. We have the youth and the boundless energy within us, roaring to get in action. All we need is a beacon, to point us the right way and then sit back as you see the country becoming the mighty, unstoppable force it is. We are the future, we are the cells of the mighty, dormant Phoenix called India. A phoenix because can rise up from the ashes, rise when all hope seems to be lost.
The time for a change is upon us, all that remains is what we make of it. Do we rise up to it? Or do we just shrug it way? That's the choice we have to make.To quote the great Italian poet Dante Alighieri,
"The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis."
We all have our own dreams, our own visions about the future of the country. Some may be optimistic, some may not be so bright. An individual may not make a great change, but collectively we can move mountains.
There is another quote I read in on the cover of a Classmate notebook:
"The world needs dreamers.
The world needs doers.
But most importantly, the world needs dreamers who do."
The future is what we make of it, so lets RISE UP and Touch the sky.
