If you were to ask a hundred parents to describe their motives and methods of discipline, you might get a hundred different answers. But for a soldier and his family, it is simple - punctuality, obedience, respect for elders/superiors, conduct, sincerity, commitment and most important is to ‘understand limitations’. Loyalty, Honesty and Integrity - Many would not be able to differentiate between the three, still this is the most powerful trio combo, which shapes the three characters. It isn’t a gene that gets genetically imprinted in them; rather it is in the air, at their homes. Perseverance - They learn the fact very early in life that diligence to hard work has no alternatives and detours. This gives them tenacity and endurance to face the world, and teaches them the seven stages of being successful – defining a goal, strong desire, building confidence, planning, cooperation, determination, and a fine execution. Adaptability - Every 2-3 years leaving a place and migrating like nomads from one place to another is common acceptance for them. Leaving old friends, making new ones, from villages to metros, from Pathshala’s to Convents, from deserts to snow and from gulli danda to polo, is a spectrum of deprivations and opportunity that they get (depends on one’s perspective). But, surly it evolves them into – adaption and survival. Separation from fathers makes them more responsible and gives them ability to take independent decisions, which most of us lack!!!!!!!

ReplyDeleteThere are many more from the armed forces fraternity who have brought laurels to the Nation.
Let us now hear from bureaucrats what is their or their families & children contribution towards the Nation.
It is Nil.
When the bureaucrats themselves cant contribute anything to the Nation how can any one expect their children do so.
Bureaucrats know well only the hatching and nothing else becaus hatching gives them a good count for every one in his family, is he really interested in the welfare of his country people or his countries welfare.
Remember we the defence people promise, wow and challenge every one and submit to our country and country people that " We gave our today for your tomorrow". Which politician, bureaucrat or any civilian employee including police and allied police services say so.
When an armed forces jawan or an officer joins the armed forces and completes his training he pledges holding Geetha/Khuran/Bible/Grandh in one hand as per his religion and keeping another hand on the gun and that too in presence of his dharam Gurus and his commanders takes an oath to give life for his country and for his country people. Is there any one else including the politicians, bureaucrats or any other country people and employees do pledge for their Nation. Is not every one working for the country, is not every country chap is working for country's prosperity, then why this step motherly treatment by the politicians Mr PM, Mr DM and Mr FM who has been badly degraded by Shri Ramjethmalani, an eminent Lawyer and BJP leader. OROP has brought difference within their own party leaders, how are Mr Modi going to lead the country. God only knows. Braking Dogs never bite, no use of barking on mikes.
Correct Colonel.
ReplyDeleteBarking Politicians never deliver.
