Is it not the right time yet ????

The country in which I was born and brought up, is the mother of so many religions and a variety of cultures. To be very honest, I also follow one somewhat :)

Some days back I came to a country where people were technically more forward, happier and richer. People seemed to be so united and similar to each other!
I was so pleased with their behavior and their timeliness and their discipline ...
First time in my life, I saw people going for lunch and dinner at the same time and even brushing teeth at the same time ! I was so possessed by such a culture and I started digging into the roots of it :)

Although I was busy with my tight schedule , I started roaming around the city on weekends and started talking to some of the people at office. Everywhere I went, I felt so much similarity which I could never find in my birth place ( not even 2 km radius ) :D
Suddenly one day I found out that most of the people here dont follow any religion ! ( I dont remember, how I found out for the heck of it ). First time in my life, after hearing terms like baniya, jaat , punjaabi , marwari , north indian, chinki , south indian , bengali .... I heard something different and interesting "NO RELIGION" !

I began to think is that the reason of their happiness and unity ? Although I believe five fingers are never equal and I'm never stronglu opinionated :)
But on second thoughts, aren't we used to loathing each other on the basis of caste and creed ? Aren't we imbibed to abhor in the name of religion !
Aren't we so used to discrimination on the basis of gender, that even the discriminated ones feel that its alright to be suppressed ! :D

Aren't we the ones who dont even have the right to take most important decisions of our lives ?
Isn't it correct that most of us dont even have the right to choose their spouse in the name of so called society ?
Isn't it true that we are so deeply involved in altercations and clashes all the time that we dont have time left to work on development of our country !

Aren't we the ones who are looked at as SLAVES all over the world ?

Isn't it the time to leave personal/communal differences behind and start working for a better future ?

Isn't it the time to teach our men to respect the integrity of a women regardless of her religion, region and clothes ?

Isn't it the time to stop corruption and reservation ?

Isn't it the right time to start the chapter of true equality ?

Isn't it the time to wake up before its too late ?

Lets start taking decisions and act on it .....
