Our country is not only our home but a shelter that gives us liberty to live, express and act.2011 was a major year as India saw ‘Anti-corruption’ movement by Anna Hazare. We could feel the real meaning of ‘unity in diversity’. I welcome our 63rd Republic Day with a poem by Rabindranath Tagore as below:
My Country Awake by Rabindranath Tagore
Where the mind is without fear and the head held high;
Where knowledge is free;
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
Where words come out from the depth of truth;
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection;
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit;
Where the mind is led forward by Thee into ever-widening thought and action;
Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.
Happy Republic Day
Proud To Be An Indian!
