Whilst on board an aircraft, you are asked to remain seated with your seat belt fastened in upright position, during takeoff and landing. Once the warning light is switched to green, passengers can take off their seat belts, though it is safer to remain seated with seat belts fastened all through the journey.
Very few people continue to travel with the seat belts on and in upright position.
In our day to day life, there is no such messages but a small section of society are always found to be in upright position. There is an old saying that rains shower in order to please that one person who is upright and in the process entire society gets benefited!
Why is it that we find honesty and integrity is becoming a rare commodity? what should we do to make honesty and integrity a way of life? People tend to follow the paths frequently used by others. Even children follow by observing their environment. We need to have cleaner environment for healthy society.
Day in and day out we are seeing new campaigns introduced to protect the planet and the interests of the world like, poverty alleviation,Sustained development, green and clean campaign, campaigns against pollution of air,water and earth, Food adulteration, protection of animal species and numerous campaigns to control various deseases.
We need to have campaign with educational interventions that will become a movement and eventually lead to clean society. Although the path to achieving this will be a long one like the poverty alleviation campaign, considering its huge impact it will have on our society and the world at large, this campaign for clean society should be kick-started.
Well it is too old fashioned to write about such utopian thoughts! Let me lighten the mood by giving an excerpt from a haiku poem, translated from Tamil, which goes like this:
'I watched my young maid clean up my house with her swift and lovely movements. She made the hall spick and span but my mind corrupted!'
Let us adjust our seats to upright positions!
