There will be a day..........


There will be a day, when nations will not be known by the might of their armies; not by the splendour of their cities; not by the numerous sky scrappers and the trade towers; not by their economic indices – be it GDP growth rates, market capitalizations of stocks or simply the number of billionaire businessmen.


There will be a day when nations, so called superpowers stop fearing individuals. There will be a day when USA no longer fears likes of Osama or Saddam or their non existent WMD’s. There will be a day when the anniversary of “War on terror” would be marked by an official apology and remorse of the Americans for the sheer belligerence or for the sheer economics of oil. There will be day when CHINA doesn’t get nightmares over the remotest possibility of Dalai sabotaging the Beijing Olympics.

There will be a day when nations would mean “an empowerment of people”. An empowerment that guarantees health; an empowerment that constitutes sanitation; an empowerment based on meaningful education; an empowerment that embodies the right to information and the freedom to dissent. An empowerment that moves out of governmental schemes moves out from singular stories of certain brave men who fight the mighty system, an empowerment that is debated not only in intellectual discourses and policy discussions in elite circles but is redeemed in every facet of national life.



There will be a day when

“GROSS NATIONAL HAPPINESS” would replace “GROSS NATIONAL PRODUCT.”

Hey, you underestimate the power of greed. Greed is the single most powerful driving force in all humans ... so gdp will always rul over gnh ... you know i am never an optimist dear ... All said and done you are a saint worth pure admiration ...

Hey Nainish ... I always thought you were an optimist... and you have proved to be optimist... what you have dreamt is a utopian world....
While it seems an impossible dream, it can be possible with many of like minded thinking to aspire so...

I am always fond of the wording ..."Aim for the sky ...you will land at least on the tree top"... I modify it further.... "Aim for the Heavens, ytou will surely land on the sky".....

So buddy.... Sky's not the limit...Only Heaven is......
