WITH EVERY DESTRUCTION COMES CONSTRUCTION

19 Sep, 2018

I am a student of LMS Kullu and would  like to thanks my school for giving me the pleasure of writing upon this topic .LMS is the best school in the valley and picproduces the best results in the valley. So now coming back on topic they every destruction leads to construction. This saying is really true and I firmly believe this saying. Every destruction shatters us into pieces but it also brings a lesson with it and if the lesson is followed it can lead to a great construction. This reminds me of a quote of Pablo Picasso – “Every act of construction is first an act of destruction.”  This quote is really true and actually construction according to me is an aftereffect of destruction. Science is a great example of this quote because after the destruction basically after failure in an experiment if the scientists would have stopped experimenting do you think we could have been able to use the inventions that we use today. This also reminds me of a story of a moan who had a dream of making an airplane and he had succeeded in making it but it got destroyed because of a storm but this did not stop him and he made an storm resistance airplane. This shows how destruction leads to construction. Let me give a recent example of Kerala flood. That devastated the whole state, but people of that state were optimistic. TV reporters and anchors have now started praising the role of ‘locals’ in the rescue and relief work. Surprise, surprise! The relief response in Kerala has been as stupendous as the floods themselves. The official machinery worked, with armed forces units and the National Disaster Response Force working in tandem with, and as coordinated by, the local administration.But the biggest rescue work was done by Kerala’s fisher folk, who arrived with their boats, strong bodies and generosity of spirit and spent tireless hours moving people to safety.A million or so people made it to schools, churches, community halls and other large buildings that turned into functional relief camps. Ordinary people ran the camps. Volunteers turned up in droves. Food and other essentials materialised.Why is Kerala’s proactive response to the floods so sharply different from the passive victimhood that mostly characterises the flood-affected in the rest of India? The answer lies not in the state’s superior level of literacy, but in the political empowerment of the people over generations. Political empowerment is a term that evokes allergy in the urban elite, if it does not go above their head altogether.The floods offer a common purpose, around which all sections rally, to great productive effect. If building broad-based prosperity, albeit capitalist, can be openly accepted as a common goal, nothing can hold back Kerala’s growth at warp speed.So all these instances prove that every destruction leads to construction.
