Patriotism - A very - devoted love support, and defence of one's country and national loyalty. very strong statement all caped into one and the mere foundation we lack as
citizens. When the flag of the United States is raised high and above, you will
not catch any naturalised civilian sitting. All will get up and sing their
beloved anthem with pure emotion and a strong belief of America and her
principles.
Somalia
has a history dating back to thousands of years and with the most strategic position
in East Africa, it can be a powerhouse without any aid or contribution. It
really begs the question, what is going on?
Lack
of patriotism is what is going on. Lack of pure love and value of the land
Allah has possessed us with is what is wrong. Lack of love for the fellow citizens
is what is wrong.
We
must establish a firm understanding about the beauties and wonders of Somalia
and its history. A nation full of untouched natural resources and one with a
bright future if we all can see ahead and not concentrate on today. Somalia is
waking up, but have we woken up with her? That is the single biggest question
we must all ask one another. Sometimes a reality check is all what is needed
for one to understand the world.
Africa
is moving at a rapid pace with nations looking far ahead into the future. Solar
energy, education and self employment, the world is always looking for innovative
ideas and ways to prosper for their citizens. Isn’t time we as a people look
for ways to build our confidence, wealth and re-build our nation? 22 years we
have lost. A whole new generation who only knows and understands violence,
terror and fleeing from their homes.
Forgiveness,
understanding and looking ahead, 3 crucial steps we must take otherwise we will
be stuck in this limbo for another decade. I have assurance and optimism
for my community and I am sure a lot of you do so let’s keep doing our part and
continue, however way possible, to enhance the development of Somalia.
Patriotism:
a word so easy to pronounce but takes a lot of sacrifice to implement.
Soomaaliya
Ha Noolaato!
