Harvesting is a festival for farmers, a patient recovering from a serious ailment is the real festival for a doctor, Festival is the time when our armed forces are successful in guarding the borders in peace, an NGO being able to keep the underprivileged happy means festival time for all those children sans some normality. Such noble professions are rare indeed but definately worth a salute.
The reason for them to rejoice each such occasion is not something complex but a simple one...They believe in their HOPE and strive to achieve with HOPE till the time they can. And thus when that light of HOPE shines bright reaping fruits of achievement is it not the real festive time for them?
HOPE is the essence of life for all of us. What we forget is that we succeed when we truly believe in our hope and fail when there is the slightest doubt. The doubt arises when we have somewhere deceived our conscience and not given our 100%. Many a times a 70% is enough so we succeed BUT an escape does not always repay well.
Moral of the story is be HONEST to yourself...and then your HOPE to which you are clinging on will not let you down.
HOPE IS WHAT YOU SHOULD NEVER GIVE UP, HONESTY IS WHAT BUILDS THE CONFIDENCE IN YOUR HOPE.
'Sach aur saahas hai jiske mann mein, anth mein jeet usi kee rahe'*
*Honesty to oneself & others and COURAGE will always make you the winner in the END of the GAME.
