“If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.”, so says the line in Secret Garden !
I still believe its all about perspectives ! Oh a country of Billion ask many people and yet not many medals in Olympics !So should we be winning a Billion Gold Medals?
There are reasons for everything and also for this.
India got its Independence 69 years ago to be precise (in another 2 days) and we have come a long way in all aspects .The country has been on an incremental curve especially after the Liberation of economy in 1991 in a fairy exponential way .
Exposure to most of the Olympic sports and the physical fitness preparedness is not developed and it needs its own processes and infrastructure support.
One can counter argue saying even small African nations go ahead and win Gold medals.What facility and infrastructure they have ?There is always one Usain Bolt and we also have our own Sania Mirza and Sania Nehwal and not to mention the 2 legends in their own fields: Sachin and Leander Peas .
We will definitely improve and we might not compete and even surpass China like we do in Information Technology but we have improved and the future looks brighter !
The mindset in the people of the country to look up to sports as a professional career should increase rather than making pessimistic comments about the country's talent pool. This could be a negative factor for the next generation of stars.
Yes we still have Cricket as the major sport ,viz we all have grown with that.
Its like asking a North Indian you eat only rotis and south Indian you eat only rice.
Certain things need not change and certain things would change based on circumstances .
Sachin is still the "God of Cricket"and Rajini is still celebrated in an unprecedented way by the young and the old alike when his film releases .
We are a country where we celebrate our fellow countrymen's achievement as our own achievement and lets be proud of it!
There is a transition period for everything and we are slowing transitioning towards in a good fashion in many areas .
Yes, there are infrastructure issues ,corruption etc.But there are different problems every where in the world.
Its a nice fashion even for so called socialites to comment on it ,but we should truly be proud that there is a Deepa Karmakar and an Indian among very few in the World who can do Produnova.
Let us celebrate and appreciate the moment and I am glad I could take 3 women as examples of excellence which itself shows the fact we have progressed from being a Male dominated country .
So the " Acche Din" of Indian Olympics might not be far away and that might be the
"Tryst with Destiny"
Till then Life As It Is continues ....
