All the news is now about COVID, that sometimes other news just gets buried underneath.
It was only yesterday I heard that this year India will celebrate its 75th year of Independence.
75 ! Wow. We have come a long way.
Or have we ?
What are we celebrating ? Should we ? It is worth it ?
And how fast time flies !!
I remember the year India celebrated its 50th year of Independence. The celebrations were on for a whole year.
The news was all about hope, and progress, and success gained and success on the way. I was still in school , but I felt great about the country and the times. I felt this was the best place to be in the world right now. There was no need to worry about the future, because WE will make the future.
I was naive.
So if you are celebrating this year , good for you.
