A country affected with an epidemic of scams, unhealthy governance and lack of political will in the form of corruption, poverty and unemployment is desperately awaiting a leader that will deliver the Promised Land. Like every teenager, getting introduced to the idea of romance the first crush is very important. Most of us would have experienced such crushes in our youth, being attracted to someone for just their physique or charm or intelligence or something else. More often than seldom, we mature to understanding that true love being able to look beyond these initial attractors.
Infatuation is when we love the idea of falling in love, misunderstanding our attraction (liking) as love.
The idea of a corrupt free nation is not only romantic but also very inspiring. For a youth that has exposure to international affairs, the national stage is very discouraging and contrary to its dream of its ideal nation. The very moment somebody starts talking about fighting corruption, we are all ears for it. We are listening attentively and secretly praying for such a miracle. To top that when somebody gives us ready made sentences to vent out our anger towards the system, it is an obvious relief which plays cupid.
It is only maturity to be able to ask the right question, if the person is a critic or a change maker. Once we understand the differentiators between the critic, who can find a lot of faults in the creator but fails miserably when awarded the same opportunity to create. I know, it sound like differentiating between the boys and the men for young women. The boys just want to talk all lovely things and even give some pleasure but the very moment a responsibility shows up, they boys disappear leaving behind mature men, who may not be as handsome and attractive. It is this very moment where the girls matures into a young woman, shedding off her stupid idea of romance to embrace a more stable and evolved idea for the man of her dream.
Of course, this man will be a little less romantic, will share his time amongst his other responsibilities so that he can stand by everyone around.
The only appeal I have to the youth is to hold on with their romantic idea of a corruption free, thriving economy with ample opportunities stemming from able administration and good governance facilitated by a strong decision maker who takes the right decision without caring for its popularity.
Also remember that no system is perfect. A new shoe always seems cleaner than a used one but only after the new shoe biting, we realize the importance of the old one. Also it is not that only one party is aiming for a corruption free India. The means may be different, the ends are not.
