A revolution, when ignited, is the most potent weapon to transform the society.

- I Cannot see it now…but I know it’s somewhere behind!!
Nonetheless, even when there is no evident upheaval in the name of a movement, I sense there is a revolution – a dormant one.
What Egypt just witnessed is remarkable and historic. A people’s movement! No specific leader involved! The intensely burning hearts of the people who for years have sustained suppression of sorts, when got access to a social platform through networking sites figured the scale of the dormant revolution. The precursor of a huge wave… and BOOM… out wentMubarak!! Sure it was more painful and more dramatic and more drastic, involving more detailing than I am drawing out, but in culmination- it’s a fabulous example of people’s victory!!
Now, the bunch of questions that have been troubling me are – Do we really need to be pushed to the corner to wage a battle?? Are we taking our democratic freedom for an easy ride?? Does it really help to keep blaming the corrupt politicians?? Is lighting candles and shouting anti-govt. slogans really working?? Or maybe this is the beginning of a dormant revolution that might take a concrete shape once we get more aware of how much our hard earned money is stocked outside the country by the biggies.
I am not able to reach anywhere with these thoughts. How about you, my readers, pour in your thoughts on this. Lets make the next blog – your blog!! Please write in to contactmanavgohil@gmail.com and leave your write up so that I could select a couple of them and put it up on my blog.
Now, till I hear from you… take care and lots of love!!
