Dear Friend, No it is not about wanton desire to admire history it is the desire to use it to benefit the future.To list the misdids of yesterday will fill space urgently needed to provide for now and tommorrow.I really relate, it was the same floor i had to dance upon like u and many others too.Any such bitterness allowed kept within may give unwarranted excuse to cause harm to others . But by seeing yesterdays bright spots it will at least put real challenge in some wanted areas. It will awake the present to make goals to surpass. Dreaming is a life long process achieving personal goals the same. But we cannot oversee the basic human need for fair treatment and human dignity,we cannot compromise our national goals just because personal needs are unmet yet.To put such front will deminise our genuine readiness to sacrifice for the many.Some raise case thats our prime setback ie putting personal goal before any other including national and global.That certainly is one of them. Ofcourse who dont want big titles and fancy dress ups to flatter the outside---that is human too but to be ready to serve in rags or suit is propursely noble too? HE is human too both of them yes but the thing we cannot tolerate is to deny others the same right. In nuzzles or in words in joules or on mind a brother is a brother all we need really is to know this deep.Like sister like brother equal in all degrees.
