I have always believed in thinking positive. I might sound negative some times, but I guess overall I believe that things do get better in the long run!
Why am I saying this? Not trying to sound political here but I feel we are losing the essence of ourselves, our camaraderie over certain political issues. I have seen arguments blow up in family whatsapp groups, in otherwise civil coffee time discussions at offices and in general, any place else.
The idea of the night being the darkest before dawn fills you with a sense of hope. It gives you that tiny sliver of good and warm fuzzy feelings, once you know that a new day is just on the horizon. The idea that one can make a fresh start to another day where you are not constrained by failures of the past day but looking forward to achieving something better today.
I had literally lost my writing mojo, a while back. Not that I have found it, but at least I know I am moving in the right direction. This post utilizes no AI and I am proud to say that I have tried to be as authentic here as I can. AI in itself might work for some, but I want my writing to represent me, imperfections and all.
Coming back to the political discourse, I feel that we need to be clear in what we expect from our leaders. We can’t and shouldn’t accept any one on face value. Question, criticise, doubt everything. This would mean that you are actively taking part in the democracy that is India.
