Loyalty to nation can not be a grey area.
How can a nation grow and be happy if its people are not loyal to nation. So if we feel that our nation must become stronger, must grow and be the best then we must ask ourself are we loyal to our nation?
Either one is loyal to nation or one is not. It can not be 50-50. We every moment express our loyalty to nation in words deed and intentions. Saluting national flag is good but that alone is not sufficient. Most of us care more for selfish interest.
Words
How often people say such things which are damaging for society and nation. Why do we allow this. Such words harm nation more that they appear to. The kind of negativity these sets in the mindset is deep. This causes later much damage in the form of corruption, crimes, terrorism and other anti national activities. This must be checked with strictness. Freedom of expression is no excuse for any bad words. Democracy does not mean chaos and recklessness. There must be strict laws to curb such words. Discipline is important and much more in democracy. No nation can remain happy and grow without discipline. Discipline of tongue is the most basic discipline. Those loyal to nation display loyalty through speech. We must be watchful of our words. No harm is small. We must see our words are not harmful to other people, to institutions, to society and to nation at large.
Deeds
This tells how we treat our nation. This reveals our true identity. Pride of nation or traitor. On one extreme we have soldiers sacrificing life for nation and on other extreme we have anti national elements. Within this range we are there in our daily life. We do small things but these small things too are good or bad for nation. These small things like everyday corruption, breaking laws or harming others by being deceitful are also anti nation activities. Small activities make national character and decide how we perform as nation. Just like if cells of body are unhealthy entire body will become unhealthy. Similarly if we are not honest and hard working, we harm our nation. Unfortunately many people display as if they are loyal to nation but their deeds are contrary.
How much we debate about the problems our nation is facing. Poverty, hunger, lack of development, crimes, corruption and many more. But we just talk big and blame others. Explore within. Are we loyal to nation in words, deeds and intentions. Is mere wishful thinking that our nation should become great is going to help? No. If we are serious about nation then we must discipline our words and deeds. We have collective responsibility towards nation building.
