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.
