Discipline- A necessity to revive India

 

“Discipline” refers to a proper training and control of mind and character. It is a necessity to conduct life in accordance with rules and regulations. It can not be obtained without voluntary obedience to some fixed codes of behavior. Discipline may put some checks on your freedom, but a person free to do his will, can create havoc in the world. It is in fact impossible to lead a civilized life, without the check of discipline.

 

Discipline contributes towards “work and progress” and both the terms will sound meaningless in it’s absence. People usually make the mistake of associating discipline with cut down of freedom whereas discipline is undoubtedly the foundation of all freedom. The charm and value of freedom can not be realized without the discipline.

 

The deteriorating standards of discipline in our daily lives have already started showing colors. It has given birth to such an immense amount of violence, criminal acts, inefficiencies and corruption. You hardly find anyone taking his or her work seriously. Whatsoever be the field, indiscipline has eaten the roots of honesty; moral values and above all social and national life. Schools and colleges, which were once known as temples of learning have converted into hot beds of indiscipline.

 

These days, indiscipline has completely defiled the atmosphere. Is this the atmosphere in which we want our children to grow and flourish??? There is a dire necessity to take steps and realize our responsibilities. We can at least do our share of the duty with genuine sincerity by making our life more disciplined. Basically, it has to come from within and once the importance of discipline is realized, the existing world will become more organized and peaceful. So, be a contributing hand to make India a better place to live.

I-ME-MYSELF

To pen down your feelings takes quite an effort. It is very difficult to make the right choice of words, which have the capability to convey exactly how you feel. Have been struggling since past few weeks to write something. But what to write? I thought about my life and then again started wondering what to write out of it. I actually belong to a small town in India. I went out to study Engineering in another small town. I still do not know what made me take that sort of decision. I somehow completed my graduation but the stuff I got through never got into my mind. At my college also I was never interested in calculations and observations.  .                                                                                   

 The town in which I went to complete my college always had unbearable summers but despite of it, the place had wonderful evenings. So, in the evening I used to go to the terrace of my hostel and sit there for hours together gazing at the moors. I loved the breeze brushing upon my body and souls, making them relax. I always love to be near to nature.Waterbodies have always attracted me, as I can observe the flowing water continuously for long hours. Water is a greatest miracle in itself. Flowing water has always fascinated me, it gives me an impression of flowing time. I can not return to the time which has already passed, similarly neither can I ever see the same water again.I came back to my hometown after graduating and within a few months got married. I conceived after six months of getting married and had a difficult pregnancy, most of the time being advised by my doctor to take a complete bed rest. After exactly seven months from my conception I gave birth to twin boys. My children were “premature” and weighed 1100 grams each. My doctor told me that such children need special attention and care. Hence I started a very unique journey of motherhood.
