This country will be stronger than ever
RAWALPINDI: The crisis of any country is identifiable when its young generation has lost its vision. Vision acts as a concrete foundation for the success of any country. Without a strong foundation, there is no meaning of existence for any country. It destabilises and starts declining. The young generation plays a vital role in the successful running of a country by maintaining these foundations. The current generation of Pakistan will define the country’s state in the next decades. Unfortunately, rather than being innovative, our youth’s productivity is significantly low, which is alarming for any developing country.
The vision of the younger generation should not be to live a life earning enough to satisfy themselves. To the existing generation of Pakistan, there is an extreme need to broaden their vision and help them find their true purpose of existence, which is to make a mark in the country they are born in. To serve the world should be their prime aim and to put in selfless effort should be their priority. From serving the borders to the innovations in nanotechnology, they should pursue any field in which they can excel. Stagnancy results in death and puts brakes on the progress of a country. Our youth must own this beautiful land and let it be honoured as it was attained by countless sacrifices by our ancestors. Once the youth realises its role and purpose, the days of prosperity will not be far away. This country will be stronger than ever and can reach the height of prosperity only if our youth is determined.
