At the outset, I wish all our readers a great time ahead, full of great health, happiness and all-round prosperity. When we normally wish people—let them be familiar or otherwise too for that matter. See the faces of foreigners beaming when we wish them on the streets. In this process we discover our internal strengths double, maybe for we are all like-minded humans who wish each others well as a social gesture and why it is instinctive habit too. I wonder if we can stop ourselves from wishing someone who starts a new job, launches a noble cause, initiates a pious deed, or starting a course to shake off a bad habit unless of course they are sworn enemies. I find it strange when it comes to wishing ourselves well for our own good, in our own minds; most of us find it difficult to sustain the self-wishing all through. The reason might be after all we only wished for own sake for so and so project that too secretly within ourselves. This conscious knowledge tends dilute our interest and we may lose our conviction in own self, in our strengths, ideas and thoughts. Next, we find it harder to get ourselves committed to the project. We also feel the project is after all a personal baby and so we can keep our options wide open, to have freedom to abandon it midway. We assume, albeit for all wrong reasons, we are alone in this world, with no one to support our case to wish well along with us. This retrograde thinking will result in making our resolve further diluted.
However, we all find some occasions like our own birthdays, New Years and anniversaries are great fun wherein though we wish well for our own good such good feelings last longer. A point here, on these occasions we have others too besides us, to wish us well on similar lines and we too reciprocate the same to others especially New Year and common festival greetings. Here group dynamics work wonders, especially when our group is a homogenous one oozing mutual goodwill. My point here is to prove the power of a combined will of people around us wishing each others. In this knowledge, I feel it is better for every one to increase membership in such clubs and societies for the simple comradely feeling, brotherhood and bonhomie atmosphere, prevail to create some positive vibrations for the good of everyone of us. Now, is it not high time we wished each others very well recognizing others’ needs to get wished on various fitting occasions that too at the appropriate time of the day and also in appropriate words and gestures, to see their wishes as well our bear fruit?
