August 15 being the Indian Independence Day, we have the tradition of celebrating it with decoration at the office on the previous working day. Someone asked this morning, "Why do we have posters saying, 'Happy Independence Day'?"

I guess many of the post-1947-born Indians do not fully appreciate the freedom we have. We only have to look around and there are millions in the world without the basic freedom to access information, speak their mind and act.

The above action-oriented quotes would not resonate with them as it could with people in a free country.

Wishing all India-lovers a Happy Independence Day!
