LIFE - Beauty in imperfection

Train journeys are undoubtedly the best when it comes to the mode of transport. You meet new people, you observe and get to learn so many things. A sympathetic ear can make way for stories that often find themselves unheard. These stories will definitely keep you grounded because they never leave you unmoved. Each humble heart in every corner of this country deserves kindness, deserves compassion. A journey that throws light on the journey of life. 

Fighting the odds, trying to the core of it, every second, every minute striving every bit of it. You are worth it. With loads on the shoulders, Every dependent's thought revolving, going strong without complaining. Yes, you are worth it. Hidden happiness? No, hidden sadness. Yet on the way of goodness. You are worth it.

Dear  आई, If i were asked to define the purpose of my life, i would just sum it up in one word " आई" I am sure you never spend a single moment without thinking about me. If not for yourself, you have been ensuring my presence in your prayers.  You make sure i never fall short of anything.  But today i do, with my words when it comes to describing you. Gratitude and Love. 

While i pen down on the things to be done post lockdown, i hope and pray that we will pass through this rough patch soon.  Life is all about firsts, isn't it? So, the firsts would be as follows: I shall reflect on how we were successful in getting through this pandemic. Reflect on the struggles which would have been never possible without the lockdown. I would definitely appreciate the love and care of my family, relatives and friends. I would show more acceptance and gratitude towards every humble heart i would meet in future. While this be done, i would continue to thank the almighty for every new day in my life.

Back then when we were in school, i remember the days after the summer break when we were asked to describe our summer vacation. Analogous to which, we will be answerable to ourselves on the days we spent through this Quarantine. I shall hope that our answers will reflect the sense of humbleness, the sense of self-evaluation and the urge to make this world a better place to the kind hearts around.

The allotment of 20 lakh crore economic package has definitely educated us on our Gross Domestic Product and how each one of us can contribute to it. But wait.. Rather than blaming ourselves for using imported goods, it is the exporter of these imports who has to be appreciated. India being a developing Nation, it did create a market for sale of such imports. It is very difficult to shift gears but it not impossible. ' The Swadeshi Movement ' is what i am speaking about. It was started during the Indian Independence movement to improve the economic condition and the Nation is now feeling a wistful longing for that movement.  Let us pave the way towards a Self Reliant India.
