What Can YOU Do? What can we do

okay this one is a slightly serious one....

I watched 'Rang De Basanti' recently. It got me thinking about the dismal situation of India. Quite frankly I think India is not gonna improve much and very soon.You may not like what I said.... I don't like it ...but that is how I feel and how things look to me.

I feel that way because of all the daily things that happen to me, to others. Now I am not saying that other countries are perfect and that everything works...but I feel they do try harder.

As for the movie. I hate it when movies make a good point like this movie did ...but never show, how you, an average everyday person, on a daily basis, can do something to make a difference. I don't mean go and make donations to NGO's and help little kids out...although that is a start.

I mean fight the low level everyday things.

FIGHT a government official (anyone at any level) who wants to take a bribe. FORCE him to do his job the right way.
FIGHT a government official (anyone at any level) who is too lazy to do his job. FORCE him to do it.

PISS them off till something is done.

FIGHT the urge to pay bribes even if it means the difficult way out for YOU.
FIGHT the urge to be lazy and not do your work.

FIGHT mediocrity and never settle for substandard work.
FIGHT the urge to not give your best and do substandard work.

FIGHT corrupt Politicians. Shake their world if they misuse YOUR VOTE.

TEACH little kids from the ground up about values, and doing the right thing.
TEACH little kids about following the rules and obeying the rules.
TEACH people to be brave.
TEACH people to be less apathetic.

SLAP people into following the law and rules.

A few things to note here.

1. YOU have to do it ... and the benefits come back to YOU.
2. YOU have to FIGHT. It's way past the time to talk.


When a generation is stirred ... then only will something change for the better.

Now the tough questions. where do I start ? why should I? What difference will I make....
Am i just dreaming...and ranting.....
I want your views on this issue ...
