I ever wonder, if we really a nation ??? May be ……
What is the definition of a nation ?? i dont mean to look in the dictionary. But look through the history of great nations. And the nations who lead this world. So are we a nation??? (This time i m particularly talking about Pakistan).
I know everyone will agree with me that a nation cannot be called a complete nation until it has a single aim and reason to live. A nation without a mission is dead. And a mission cannot be archived without devoted and helping persons. And those person are always ready to sacrifice for a big cause.
So here we should think , how much we sacrifice our personal life and things for our nation or help those who go for a big cause?? or at least we must appreciate them. But very sorrowfully we are so attached to our personal achievements and comforts that we don’t think for a national cause. All this is in front of us. But we have closed our eyes of heart and stopped our brains from thinking about bigger cause… the national cause. Just earn and work hard for our self and sleep calmly in the night. No need to waste time in discussing national issues or read about national problems or tell our friend/ family to behave like a nation and live for a bigger cause.
We should start thinking about this before it is too late.

I agree, what I have seen is may be we been ruled over for long and this is the reason for this self pleasing attitude. We never want to get out of our comfort zones. The British rule has taught us some critical lessons, and one was a sense of less attachment towards this land. Though it was our, but we let it to be Britons. Now, when they have left and its been more than 60 years we are own our own but still, we are not accepting this land and country to be our home. We still when it comes to our personal gains put it in the back benches. You talk about big thing sacrifice, and stuff. I say lets start from not spitting on the roads. I have seen people never do this at home but feel it more like a duty to spit on the street. These are behaviors which we need to change. Though there are other reasons, like our theocratic culture, where a mulla never let a common man grow his vision. I do not know, why we don’t step out of our self created shells and look out for answers we never do that, and just let things happen to us, and there our main focus is just to get through it even if it involves stepping over a fellow country men.
