Musing...
The wellbeing of our nation is our communal responsibility, as its citizens.
While it is easy to criticise the leaders who usually have greater
influence over a majority of the prerequisite decisions, we must
evaluate how well we use our own influence in whatever sphere we exert
it, whether as the heads or members of a family, organization, community
or even of ourselves.
* Do we do the right thing uncompromisingly, at every opportunity?
* Are we good managers of our time and other resources?
* Do we put the interests of others first? Are we fair and just in our dealings with people?
* Do we obey and uphold the laws of our nation, even in the absence of law enforcement agents?
These are pertinent points of evaluation in which we fail. Sadly, a
seat of influence like the presidency or any other leadership role is
too high profile a position for such lapses to go unnoticed. However, it
doesn't make the average citizen any less culpable in whatever
capacity, for the ills of our society.
If we make the practice
of righteousness as popular and even more so, than corruption, our
nation can begin the much needed recovery to full health
