The Concept of a Better


                              Tomorrow








           Just as the night cannot prevent the day from following it, no
           untoward circumstances can ever deprive man of the hope of
                                a better tomorrow.


              he  concept  of a better tomorrow  is  ingrained in
          Thuman nature. Every day man witnesses the fact
          that day follows night.  And  will  always follow night.
          The same is true of life. In human life there is no full-
          stop. There are only commas until it reaches the final
          destination.
             The concept of tomorrow is only relevant for human
          beings, not for animals. Humans always think by taking
          the future into consideration. No setback can take away
          this  tomorrow-oriented  concept.  It is  because  of  this
          concept that the struggles of human life are never given
          up as being futile. Just as the night cannot prevent the
          day from following it, no untoward circumstances can
          ever deprive man of the hope of a better tomorrow.

             This tomorrow-based concept begins from individual
          life, covers national struggle, then goes on to the global
          hope of building a civilization. It is this continuity of
          hope which is man’s most distinctive feature.
