Children's Day: A Wake up Call

We Celebrate this day, as a token of  appreciation for children. Though the dates change with the places, all the nations pledge for a better future for their children. A child has no selfishness, jealous or any other like the people are. Children are pure as water and sweet and are noble in their thoughts and feelings.



"when I used to get to my brother at his 5,I used to make him cry for no reason being myself angry for nothing. But as soon as i'm upset he used to console me, tried to make laugh and finally when my anger's gone he used to feel happy."- says a friend of mine, remembering the cute things of his brother who's 15 now.

I'm telling this all to convey only one message- Children are the direct descendants of God, they are so Noble that they try to make us happy, for us its worth nothing-but for them, its their own way of happiness.

India celebrates its Children's Day on 14th of November every year, as a remembrance of our first Prime Minister and a National Freedom Leader Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. He was himself fond of this childish charisma, that he used to be called as "Chacha" (Uncle) to denote him, as a lovable person of children. He use to feel that Children are the bright future of India.



Children play with joy on this day in schools, with many cultural programs and activities for them and played by them. This day is truly a day for them, for the noble and kind heart they have and the love they shower on us.

But, the fact is that children are loosing their beautiful childhood. no one is nowadays happy, everyone's feeling this burden by the education methods and the blind marks we shun them for. but this is all in people of better economic classes. but what about the poor and the poorest among them? children are being forced to work and refrain from studies. they're not only loosing their childhood. they're loosing their future. Nehru's dream is not child labour and encouraging India. He dreamt fo a nation with children being free to study and choose their future.

Let this Children's Day be the initiative for a better Society for Children- 

For A Better Nation
