\u2013 Vision of a MillenniumBaby<\/p>\n

Dubai, which was a land possessing only dreary sands turned into a creator of the next wonders of the world. But despite these wonders people toil, having no time to enjoy life, working hard to achieve a dream lifestyle. This hard work in greater amounts or smaller is present in this world\u2019s nook and corner. Why are people toiling in an unknown land? I believe they do it hoping for a better\u00a0 \u00a0tomorrow.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Five families following five different ideologies and religions live together in the same building without speaking a word to each other. The slightest of misunderstanding could cause the biggest of\u00a0 \u00a0fights.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Evaluating both the situations, I believe that my role as a citizen of Earth is two-fold – One, for man\u2019s physical self or body and the other, for man\u2019s mental well-being or nourishment of the soul. The first part of my role is fulfilling the vision of a better tomorrow, today itself, for millions of people and the latter is promoting a feeling of oneness, thriving for unity in diversity for the souls out there. The former and the latter are interconnected because both ensure happiness for the body and the soul and this brings mass satisfaction not only to us, human beings, but also to the \u00a0ever\u00a0 silent \u00a0forever\u00a0 listening Mother Nature.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Firstly, let me elaborate what I mean by \u201ca better tomorrow today itself\u201d. Why do people migrate? It is in search for a better opportunity, possibly because the places they hail from lack what they dream of achieving or in extreme conditions (that may be in a thousand) they lack basic amenities such as electricity, water and are in knee-deep problems due to disease and back-breaking poverty unable to send their off-springs to school. A better tomorrow for the people in the lowest rungs of the economy of the earth means eradication of poverty, providing electrified houses with water supply, access to health care facilities and availability of \u00a0education.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Let us move upwards in the economic rungs- the middle class hopes for an earth free of unemployment and under-employment with lower living costs. The wealthiest and the most powerful on the earth hope for a happy life and a healthy \u00a0physique.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There is one more entity the earth has- Mother Nature. She hopes that the next generation of both birds and beasts has a rich supply of natural resources. The better tomorrow encompasses all four entities\u2019 aspirations and my role is to contribute as much as I can to provide a better tomorrow, the dream for a century later in my life span itself.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Secondly, my role as a citizen of the earth is, to promote unity in diversity. I wish to make people look beyond the narrow walls of religion, race, colour, language, caste and economic disparity. Even identical twins are not alike but that doesn\u2019t become a reason to hate each other. We all are one despite being a European, an American, an Asian, an African or an Australian. The time when this \u00a0golden \u00a0truth \u00a0is grasped by millions who engage themselves in hatred and meaningless wars, the time when we realize we can\u2019t change anyone but ourselves, the time when everyone sees the other\u2019s qualities, that day earth will be a family-a really happy family. My role is to make earth a model\u00a0 \u00a0family.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The next big question is how is this huge mission possible? I whole-heartedly believe in two concepts. \u201cYou can\u2019t change anyone but yourself\u201d and \u201cIf you have a noble aim, the whole world will help in its realization\u201d. The two concepts look conflicting but these two concepts only mean making your life an example of your ideals so that the whole world will conspire in favour of your example. Your mind will be prone to doubts such as the scalability of this vision. We, the children and the youth, are the torch- bearers of this change-a change to realize the above mission and aspirations of all divisions of the earth and our Mother Nature. I believe, we- the millennium babies- will see this mission becoming a reality before the sun sets over this \u00a0century.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
