Are you making a difference?

I just realized that today is 26th January - REPUBLIC DAY by seeing the Google doodle. Happy republic day to everyone!!  Few years back I used to be so excited I would wake up in the morning and wait when the parade would start and never ever miss any part of the whole thing. Now,it just seems to be another holiday. Another day to sleep till late in the morning.

This was the day when all of our rights and duties in the constitution came into action. We love to emphasize on the 'rights part' ignore the duties. We actually don't care till something hampers our comfortable lives like the recent rape case. We just woke up one fine day and realized that this could happen to us or our close ones so we need to react. I didn't understand one thing in the whole scene that we have came across so many rape cases in our city but why haven't anyone stood up for those cases. If we would have woken up a bit early this might not have ever happened. I believe it's not just the matter of  justice but it's also time to completely eliminate such problems. Is it because of seeing women as a weaker section of the society? Or human beings have lost all the goodness in them? Or the lack of security for women?

I watched an amazing video video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID0kgP9IVhs)- a must watch. We need to change ourselves and then the world around us would automatically change. Republic day is not about waking up one morning and realizing your duties towards the country but it's all about what duty you can perform each day to make this world a better place to live...If you give a little love...you can get a little love of your own...!!
