I can fly:

I walk out of road n al I can find is hollow eyes, looking in my direction for reason I don’t know. Am I an alien, trodding the terrain not meant for me or am I the rebel declared outcast, fighting for a lost cause? I can sense the feeling of disapproval in their eyes, distrust for my act, my attitude but is it a sin to be a natural me? If it is then I am happy being natural me, the rebel with a cause. This is neither a revolution to overthrow the prevailing governmental technique nor for the rights of my community, caste or religion but this is the fight to live.

This is the fight to live, to live the life as one want to. I don’t wanna be Gandhiji (no offence to anyone and I have great respect for him in core of my heart). I don’t want you to decide what is good for me and what is bad? I can take my own decisions and you can’t stop me from taking them. This is not the course of Narmada which can be played with, neither this is the Ram setu which can be preserved or broken by some politicians having reasons of their own (phew! They are far from logic to be understood). But this is the rise of Vijay Mallaya and Anil Ambani which can’t be checked. This is the rise of Narayan Murty as the face of nation. This is also the rise of Yuvraj Singh and Sania Mirza as the new youth icon. This indeed is Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya, rolling with full confidence. This is Ratan Tata and not some Ford driving the senses.

The gen-next is ready to take over anyone. This was proved by IIM passout opting for NGO’s and opening own firms than bootlicking for a job at MNC. The best example of youth power is Parivartan, party floated by IITians. Thus much haunted and dreaded boulevards of power politics is no more giving nightmares to us, we are all set to solve the maze of power. The confidence given by the booming economy has transformed the youth from a docile, subdued entity to one which is roaring. It’s similar to lord Hanuman reminiscence of power and crushing the dreaded lanka of Ravan.

This feeling is amazing and the best part is we being a part of this great transformation of our country from a country taking loans from world bank under their terms to one dictating terms to work on. We born just before the liberalization of our economy are the one who will have to shoulder the rise of our economy. One thing of which every one is sure of is we being able to do the same. The songs on everyone’s lips is :

I used to think that I could not go on And life was nothing but an awful song But now I know the meaning of true love I'm leaning on the everlasting arms If I can see it, then I can do it If I just believe it, there's nothing to it

I believe I can fly I believe I can touch the sky I think about it every night and day Spread my wings and fly away I believe I can soar I see me running through that open door I believe I can fly I believe I can fly I believe I can fly

Amin…
