"The Power Of Common Man"

Today we are talking about the strength of Common Man. 'Every single drop makes the ocean' and every man makes the nation'. The spirit of service and sacrifice gives life, strength and unity to a nation.

Powers of Common Man :

When there was deluge in Mumbai on July 24, 2006, the local administration was indifferent and inefficient. But the people of Mumbai drag the city out of the most horrible crisis. The indomitable spirit of the common man was at its best. People sacrificed their own comforts and personal gains to help others. Everyone made effort for the well being of his fellow being who were caught in the torrential rain. Without carring for the odds, man joined hands to make the chain of aid to bring out others from crisis.

The humanity at the time of devastation unearthed a new citizen of a new India. If the same spirit prevails all the time, the day is not far when we will be able to make India of our dreams an ideal place to live in. The latent power of common man comes forth in times of crisis. Read the following lines of Swami Vivekanand :

"The cloud puts fourth its deluge strength
When lightning cleaves its breast,
When the soul is stirred to its inmost depth
Great ones unfold their best"

Conclusion : 

A sense of dedication and commitment to a national cause can turn the arduous task into a simple one.
