True Independence

Every 15th August has been waking up early morning, and being forced by dad to watch the National Celebrations and ceremonies.

Waking up early on a holiday every year on this day was also a reminder to wake up from the slumber.

Now more than any other time, I am enjoying my freedom.

Freedom to think and act and influence.

Freedom to choose and focus time and energy and pursue my choice.

I am overwhelmed to see and feel the problems around me. So i choose to act in my own small way.
To take a step in empowering  a fellow Indian and support his choice.

I have chosen not to ignore the problems, the zillion dollar corruptions and scams, the mindless slaughtering and sheer lack of empathy in administration.

but
To act , take baby steps and create meaning.

I have chosen to contribute towards the progress of a fellow entrepreneurial Indian with Rang De.

Our true independence would be when each one of us would be free to pursue his choice with head held high.
