Most of us have a tendency to shrink away from our responsibilities by blaming the society, the politics, the trade unions, the leaders and so on. Rightly enough corruption is there everywhere because it is there in human beings. Is it not there in business, in corporate world, in education, in religion, in family, in relations and even in ourselves? Yes it there. But that does not mean we can do shun the government because we are part of it and we are responsible for it and we know well enough that we cannot do without it. Can workers uphold their rights, their grievances, the problems without trade unions? Unity is the only strength of the proletariat to fight against the powerful giants of the world who can ruin the world if it satisfy their whims. Can we imagine a society without the government, law and order? Do we shun education, religions, relations and even ourselves because of the dirt that exist in them? If not why is there this hypocrisy? To shrink ourselves of responsibilities, to be aware, to live and to be awake, to be of worth, to be useful, to find a meaning to life.
I have seen the youths trying to find happiness or rather create it in its many different useless forms which keeps varying, changing, rotating, just to pass the time. To roam about uselessly without a purpose in life except for earning a good salary or rising high to a powerful position. We do not have any purpose, purpose for which a whole life can be given, dedicated, sacrificed without the minimal of regret. So we try to find out the meaning in useless pursuits after addictions, temptations, infatuations, etc ignoring our very responsibilities towards our society which could have given a real meaning to life, meaning which could have yield limitless passions to live, to succeed and to contribute. I hope we find that passion some day in our responsibilities and thus find true joy which crosses beyond boundaries and limits in to the vast ocean of courage. Courage which come up automatically when we the importance of situations and the consequences. I still hope “we shall overcome some day”
Good one…
