EACH year on Dec 25 we remember our Quaid and promise to continue his mission and make Pakistan strong. But then the whole year we forget our promise and go along with routines and chores of everyday life. We see, listen and know that there are problems which need immediate attention and measures to be taken to overcome them in a respectful manner.
The Quaid-i-Azam is our role model. He was bold, truthful and never compromised on principles. He spent a disciplined life. He analysed the situation and then spoke with confidence.
If we look at his statements, there is a ray of hope and direction in whatever he said in words. The Quaid avoided discussing the past and problems of the present.
He knew that the past was gone and the present was handled with hard work and devotion. He was always concerned about the future of Pakistan. He had a vision to see a prosperous Pakistan.
When talking to defence forces’ personnel, he emphasised that they should only focus on their profession and fulfil their responsibilities.
When it came to contribution of women, he very clearly mentioned that they have equal responsibility to share in making a nation strong. His utmost concern and high hopes were with the youth of Pakistan. He wanted them to learn and excel in studies and avoid getting involved in anything else.
The Quaid had high hopes that the youth of today would be the true leaders of tomorrow if they observe experience and learnt the skills necessary to compete with the world around them.
He emphasised on good and effective education which opens the doors to all hidden treasures.
Today it is our responsibility that if we really love and respect our Quaid, we should follow what he said and make our country strong and prosperous as he wanted.
