What am I proud of ?

That I am a citizen of the land which provided the longest peaceful coexistence to all major religions of this planet .
That I walk on the land of the largest democracy on the planet.
That I am citizen of most ancient & continuously inhebited civilization
That I born on a land where people never went outside to inavade other societies & colonize them .
That I consume the water & food from a land which still welcomes the people who colonized this land 71 years ago.
That I popped up from a land where creatures of all skin colors, cultures , dresses, ideologies, belief systems are coexisting without any major problem.
That I walk on the land which never hid its dark sides from the larger world unlike China hiding its slums & UK hiding its colonizing rule from their school children.
That I walk on a land that produced millions of mystic s, yogis, sages, seers, saints, singers,dancers, poets,mathematicians and even surgeons when nobody imagined it.
Yes I am a BHARATIYA ( inevitably a seeker of truth).
