Namaste! When we start cleaning the desktop, bookshelves, almari, cooking utensils, our bodies...etc etc...we feel free,
there's freshness around us, we feel rejuvenated, we reduce the chances of falling sick, we are happy to bring others into
our homes/rooms. Likewise, if we can take those 'baby steps' to CLEAN UP NEPAL that will eventually lead to bigger
steps culminating in cleaning up the government! Let's clean what we can see, and what we cannot see will be automatically
cleaned up in the process. Physical cleaning up will lead to mental cleaning. Let's not waste our energy on glorifying
idols but let's do something more valuable, something needed by the people. When others see a group of youths doing
service for the community, instead of hanging around shouting slogans, the respect for that group will be ten folds more
than the shouters. Before you know, more and more youths will come forward to join in to clean the country. Why do you
think everyone's running away to some foreign land? It's because your own land has become a dumping ground.
Nobody in their sane mind wants to live next to a rubbish dumpsite. So, they use any viable reason to pack their bags
and leave for greener pastures. Tourism is Nepal's main source of income. But if people continue to pollute their own
backyards, Nepal will soon become another Euthopia. Why do you want to cut off the hand that feeds you? Forget about
the damned politicians. You are the (educated) leaders of tomorrow! You got to start somewhere. In order to prepare
for a grand festival, it starts with CLEANING UP your home, your schools, your offices, your playgrounds, your roads,
your temples, your hospitals, your cinemas, your shops...everything!
The amazing thing about cleaning up unwanted rubbish that you see, is without you realising it, your attitude, your
thoughts and opinions, your feelings...will also be cleaned up! And when that begins to happen, you will have a
NEW NEPAL to leave behind for the future generations to come. Step forward, bend down, pick up that rubbish
and throw it into the nearest bin. And you would have served your NATION!
