The nation comprises of more than 65% youth possessing power of faith, unity, devotion, sacrifice and respect, is facing the disease of blind following. The nation, the youth exactly it is Pakistan's nation described here. The words of mine and the ink of pen are not enough to describe how this great nation has been suffering from this disease "blind following". Even though we don't know, we are following. We are following the so-called well influenced people, the leaders, political and sectarian parties whether we know them and aware of them enough or not. We are actually stuck in a groove. We are trapped by ourselves in the mud and fog of blind following. Complacency is at the peak in us. We follow friends, who they follow, what they follow, we do the same shame!
We follow the society of ours despite the fact that we are totally unaware of the several society's useless customs. We regard them as they are the only bread and butter to quench our soul's thirst. If we do not follow the society or our companions, we do follow our forefathers and ancestors blindly whether they were not doing well or they were blindly doing. Whoever they supported, the party they cast their votes for, we now do the same damn!
In spite of knowing who we supported and cast our votes and helped in the victory in elections, they instead of solving our issues and developing us, just make their palaces, offshore companies, Swiss bank accounts after being elected again and again by us.
Therefore we (the nation) have been in the ditch of poverty, illiteracy, lack of medical facilities, corruption, terrorism, ethical and sectarian discrimination as well as the most dreadful the darkness of "blind following" since we became independent-so-called independent.
We have to know why it all as been happening. It is all due to electing wrong, disloyal and unpatriotic ones. We always elect the same and they always are proved to be shame!
We as a nation collectively are out of gumption moreover we have no more revolutionary thoughts. We are not reluctant to come out of our homes for attending the public meetings, rallies and sit-ins of our so-called leaders, pseudo-patriots. We elect and support them whereupon we curse them and abuse them when we see the ignorance and disloyalty from them. Why do we not come out of our homes, our comfort zones to ask our rights and let them know their obligations? How often do we get together against corruption? Some of us are going northern way, and some southern way! We are not united on one platform. And this is the big trump card for our rulers to use us according to their needs. We are unconsciously being used and minced by them. When did we last collectively protested against unemployment, poverty, illiteracy, ignorance and inflation? Just try to remember! When did we last hold protest against nepotism and favoritism? Are we not asleep then? Are we not blind followers? Our vehicles' steering are in their hands and they are making us ride where they want. We are being driven. And this is astonishing point that we do not realize even.
We have been divided on the agenda of "divide and rule".
This is the time that we as a nation in all the provinces along with FATA, Gilgit Baltistan, Azad Kashmir and all tribal and rural areas across Pakistan need to be one and united nation without sectarian, ethical and provincial discrimination. And we have to ponder over our complacency and blind following to get rid of them.
This dilemma ought to be pondered over lest it get late. We need to take U turn to swerve ourselves on the right path otherwise there is another deeper ditch ahead in the shape of slavery if we keep going blindly on the route of blind followers. We have to seek for our bright future and we cannot afford darkness anymore.
Stop electing the tested and failed candidates. Elect the new ones-the better ones. Elect on the basis of their performances, their services and loyalty.
The key is still in our hand, the ball is still in our coat. This is the time to study and observe what the mess and hell they have been committing after being elected by us. We have to use our savvy intellectually and do accordingly as our observations, studies and facts and figures suggest.
We had better choose the ones having seen their deeds not their names, ancestors, castes and faces-double faces!
I think this is the time to rise as a united and wise nation. Because if we again fall in the same drain of blind following, survival will be as difficult as to find a needle in a haystack.
What has been happening in Sindh, in Karachi, in other cities of sindh, Balochistan, interior Punjab, in KPK and all over Pakistan? Nothing apart from increasing problems. Although the rulers have been the same for decades.
Ponder over it, and use your thumbs for betterment of Pakitanis.
