HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY

Happy Independence Day........but paradoxically even on the 60th year of India's Independence barely do we realize the real meaning of independence.....15th August 1947 India acheived her independence...but anyhow today also we are as dependent on small things as we were dependent on an entire nation sixty years ago. Back in my room when I was struggling to find out for a way to pass my time on this independence day, I felt like a prisoner tied up i my room. Thats when I realized how much my life is dependent on my friends, on my offic work and on the trivial things that I do on a regular basis to spend the 24 hours of my each day.

Sad enough, however, this one particular day of this year tuaght me that we are an independent nation and I am an independent individual....and I am the one who has to independently lead and live my life...so why be dependent on my friends, my work and the small, trivial gossips to pass my time....so HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY to ME..............

Happy independence day! very true, most of us do not realize the worth or importance of an independence that we have come to view as our birth right!. Dependence on others for our existence has become a common way of life. Maybe its time for Indians to wake up and smell the coffee...
