Is it the sounds of children shrilly screaming out Merdeka? Is it the Teenagers whom yells out Merdeka at the end of an examination or a formattive test? Or is it us; people who are 'freed' to online for hours and hours till we become Panda-faced?
Ppl have thought that Merdeka is synonym to Freedom. Well, they're half true actually. Merdeka is roughly translated to Freedom by our society due to lack of patriotism that was never instilled in them properly. I cant say that I myself is NOT one of them because that would be an utter bulls droppings if u know what I mean...
Merdeka is Independence. Independence is to be independent, to be free from unlimitless boundaries that prevents us to achieve of what we could really achieve. We see that nowadays, people tend to be fueled with the 'Merdeka" spirit but yet they themselves are not Independent from things that are blocking them from achieving what they could be. Heck, they did'nt even know or care for what our forefathers had struggled for.
If a person could really be "Merdeka" in their spirituality and mentality then surely there would be dozens of epitomes for people to admire and transpire a movement; shall I say the perfect Mental Revolution. Surely we are a nation that are proud to have independence for more than half a century (+3), surely we can do more in many years to come.
Be that it may that we are of different backgrounds, race, religious views and politics views; we can still be a nation that could be united and work as one just as our forefathers had done before. For if they can do it, surely we can do it tenfolds...
