India or Bharat!?

Hello Indians/ Bharatwasiyon, recently a word play was in headlines. Honestly, it appeared nothing more than an utmost useless and time taking issue and that was about the name of our country. Should it be INDIA or BHARAT?

The youth must have find this an illogical point to stress upon and provide opinions on as most of us are now studying in a developing country with NCERTs. Our school textbooks have 'Constitution's Preamble' in their early parts, so we are well aware that be it INDIA or BHARAT, we the citizen of our diverse country have to make sure to have respect for our country and inspire to be an asset for our country.

But yeah, there is a word that can also be line in the word play but that could gain way better audience and controversies, haha! And that's 'HINDUSTAN'.

I know, I know, that came from the sanskrit name of Indus river, 'Sindhu' then the Persians designated the land around the Indus River as 'Hindu', a mispronunciation of the Sanskrit sindhu..I know that well.

But think about it, this word, 'HINDUSTAN', it would have also appeared in the so called wordplay in the recent BREAKING NEWS, no? As its obvious this would have given them more content and entertainment..we know well our country is not only about Hindi or with Hindus, we are DIVERSE and thats what make us different, we have got many religions..Muslims, Sikhs, Christians, Jains, Parsis and many more, so the name shouldn't be Hindustan only our country is a STHAN for many religions having many languages and cultures, but..but..but, this word wasn't there..

I know, this illogical fight against two ruling parties which attracted many idle Indians oh! Bharatwasis too, was regarding the official name of our country and you know why? Just to cover up something, that must be way more important..

And our beloved 'MEDIA' supports this wholeheartedly, some because, they know people like entertainment more than infotainment and some in competition with the formers, this is what always happens, media shows and make these types of useless topics a hype covering those which our really worth it. Here I'm saying for those who really does..

We very well can examine the histories, in the tenure of a year before or completed after the elections, Border News are highlighted and yeah, 'JUNG KE HALAT' or 'DANGE' comes to the screen, because they are original, these issues are worth mentioning and every Indian/Bharatwasi get united, but then comes THE POLITICS and elections are over or the ruling party enjoys..

I'm sure, till the next elections, many other illogical issues like INDIA-BHARAT name will come up to get people engage and then in the last three months before the General election, the BREAKING will get Indians emotionally attach to either our DEFENCE or WOMEN and Then the credits will be taken by the loudspeakers and mikes..

It would be better if we, the youth, ignore some issues that appear in the headlines where each one will wake up sooner or later, put forward their opinions and in the end, nothing is going to change and even it changes the opinions won't get you some good, as for learning from debates or opinions too, one need a logical and worthing topic. It would be better if we use our time to know and learn about whats going around globe BUT from souces where information would win over entertainment AND you wouldn't end up having stupid rather confusing opinions regarding the issue and your country.

Just a post..which one are you?

 

Hey there! I just came across a post on a social site and it really touched..Honestly this post of mine can make me learn it for lifetime so yeah, this is not my own one, okhay? But the way I would present is mine 😏

They say, a daughter came stressed and dull to her father asking for why is life and outcomes so cruel to her..why isn't everything bright after a long struggle and hardships..

The father was a chef, he took her to the kitchen and got three pots placed on the gas stove and switched it on after putting in water to boil..He put a potato in one, egg in the other and some coffee beans in the third one..

The girl was impatiently waiting for what her father need to tell her. After a long wait of  20 minutes, the father took out all the three pieces of food out in three different plates..

He tool each one of them and explained something to her..with the potato, he pressed and showed her telling her that it became soft and lost its hardness..

He took the egg, peeled it and told her that its covering became soft and see it is not going to flow at cracking, it took a shape and a became usable..

He took the coffee and described her how it melted and gave an soothing aroma becoming excellent..

He asked her, which one of the three are you..a potato, an egg or the coffee beans? When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? 

She smiled..her father explained her, all three faced the same adversity, 'the boiling water' but each one reacted differently, the potato was hard and unrelenting but became soft and weak, the egg was fragile but came out hard, and the coffee beans were unique..after being exposed the water, They changed the water and created something new.

Moral: In Life, things happen around us..things happen to us but the only thing that truly matters is what happens within us.
