What Should Our Attitude Be To Our Country?
Most of us, almost 99.999% of us claim our rights only. Our fundamental rights, our comfort, our luxuries, our pleasures, our earnings, our savings, our interests, our likes, etc. are so dear to us that when we feel any encroachment and any threat to them, we raise such a hue and cry. We quote such-and-such articles from the constitution to prove to the world that our rights have been deprived of us. We are so stubbornly selfish.
But when it comes to our duties to our country, we complacently assume, ‘It is not my job! Someone else will do it!” Everyone just turns a blind eye to the outrageous wrongs being done to the environment; because raising voice against the wrongs implies devoting one's time, energy, and resources! 'Who will have fun then? My leisure will be wasted! I alone can't do anything!' This is what everyone thinks when it comes to doing one's duty to the nation's welfare.
The present critical problems that are hampering the advancement of our country exist because of this apathetic attitude. If Mahatma Gandhi would not have fought the British, who would? If Mother Theresa would not help the poor and the afflicted, who would? The way we are handling our country doesn't augur well.
Let’s change our attitude. Let’s do our duties to our motherland as passionately as we claim our rights. The moment we start doing our duties to our motherland, it will become one of the most advanced and progressive country of the world.
