New Year

All of us await the new year with lot of expectations.. It was a special case in 2012..

However, 2013 started with a couple of bad newses rather than good.
Nonetheless, the whole year has to go by and we can still wish for better things to come our way... There are a few particulars to my list though.

At the onset, I wish there are no more rumors about the world ending. More than anything else, it will only cause us to commit more mistakes thinking the world is going to end.

The Delhi tragedy has brought to light not only the vulnerability of people but also exposed the insensate and lethargic behavior of the police (our so called protectors) and the bureaucrats (our so called leaders). I only hope we have a strict law in place very soon which intends to protecting lives and preventing crimes.

We've all experienced great zeal while watching India play against any other cricket team. Many of us don't seem interested in other sports as a result of lack of knowledge. I wish we give a little more attention and respect to our national game. In fact I wish we hear more about basketball, soccer and hockey from kids of our generation. We may get some insight to other games from them at least..

All of us wish for our ministers to actually work for us. I wish there are more like Mr. Modi whose changed the destiny of Gujarat. If not new, at least the existing ones can take lessons from him which could make our country a better place..

I wish we all become spiritual. Not that we visit religious places with offerings that our Gods don't even need, but lets just not go by what a few men say and care about living humans. Lets do good deeds, feed the hungry, give clothes to the needy and help the ones in trouble. I don't know if that would unite us with God but it'll sure take us closer to the humanity that seems long forgotten. 

I wish we become more responsible in handling our resources, care more for our environment and people around us and avoid damage to our own selves. In the end, I wish we all observe kids more closely and take their attributes of being naive, pure hearted, free of hatred, greed and envy, learn to forgive quickly and forget easily.

Wish for more laughs and smiles than tears and fears in this year and the coming ones... 
Wishing all readers a very happy and prosperous new year!!

Cheers!!
God Bless!!
