A new breath
Hi,
Finally got some energy. Believe it or not, i am typing from a computer terminal after several months. It feels awkward- wha to talk about? what to share? The country is undergoing change, if you are feeling scared, don’t worry, even I am scared, everybody is. You may be more scared- You got families to care for. I am scared because I am aware of the change. But don’t worry
“Even it shall pass”.
Living as a common man is an experience in itself. It is ‘on duty 24 hours’. Deeper i sink into the shoes of a common man- more i respect them all. No longer do I blame them for not paying attention, No longer can I say - they are careless. They are brave people, women they are gallent.
More then that, my anger towards the educated, previlidged society is reducing. It is being replaced by horror. A group of people living in wonderland, like Alice. We are not worth critisism, but worth pity. Living in an wonderland, building a wonderland, acting blind folded. We don’t even know where we are headed with the horse collars.
Five months back, I had decided to retract- I said to myself, I done enough, now got to take care of my life. Then, I came across the works of Mr. P. Sainath. It blew me out of my shoes, I havn’t seen real poverty yet. Yes, africa is in bad condition, but our population isn’t doing any better either.
The job is not done. But the way ahead, I don’t know; This is eating me like a virus. I have grown weak now,
being a common man has this effect. But being one common man who has seen down the drain can drive you mad. Only Lord knows what I should be doing ahead. May be I need to find a teacher for myself.
God knows and in him I trust and thus I walk.
Yes! before I end this post..
Thank you to the Central government, J&K government & everybody else for considering to remove AFSPA from J&K. I know it is hard, but someday we all have to wake up. Someday we all have to understand people need to feel free, wings grow only when the bird feels free. Hard for the guards, but freedom is the only way out of the chakraview.
God Bless India
