We, the leaders

Whenever we achieve something, then we forget how it was before. We work, we fight, we cry,  and, we crawl to the top, then what? Then we enjoy the summit, we enjoy the reward of our hard works; but we forget (maybe not all, but at least for a moment). This is even harder for leaders. They are among us during the fight for good, people choose them to represent the hard work they did together, when he reach the summit, he forgets how he went up there. Poor people gets nothing for pushing their chosen leader to the top, then they work again, they fight again, they cry again, and they will choose another leader to push to the top replacing the earlier one. And, again the cycle repeats.


What we are facing today is the clear political disputes among the few of those chosen leaders. What they have forgotten is that they were among us, fighting with us, working with us, one of us. We all work hard for one purpose: build the nation, develop the country, ease people's life. If everyone is thinking the same then why are we not doing this?

It's easy to say, hard to do. Leaders have many things to take care of, many works to do, a lot of pressure on them. The priorities will be reordered, and schedules will be busy. We people will be waiting for small changes in our lives, and they become busy discussing big changes.

Leaders suddenly forgets how they used to feel when they weren't leaders some time ago. Now they have every facilities an normal person can wish. But, the problem is, they forget how hard they work for it, and how they promise others to make it easy for them. As a result, people are still working as before, nothing changes.

How can we remind those leaders what they been through, what they worked with us in past, and what they promised us; live a normal life with us. Ever since they reach the summit, they become so busy that they didn't get time to look at the bottom, and after a while, they forget about it. What if (let's say) a day in a week, they spend time like normal people do. Go to work in public transport, eat together like normal people do, something like that. Maybe the priorities will be reordered again.

Leaders are also normal people behind, they are also human like everybody. people forgets, no wonder in that. It is our duty to remind them, to keep pushing them. Blaming others for something bad happened is very easy, building again is difficult, it won't be that difficult if we all work together.

Thoughts stuck up in mind for so long, just happened to write it down, while cooking in charcoal stove, because there's no electricity and no gas.
