Millions of citizens snake their ways to work to do something incredible that will assure them of their monthly pay, job security, family safety, health and well being...its a war day by day. Dreams are in the range of a few thousands a month and lakhs a year...some even below that imaginable line...which is inching higher and higher and making us just...insignificant.
But what shocks the shit out of me is the fact that we have forgotten that one appetite can only be so much that can be consumed...of course many bite more than what they can chew...enter opulence & luxury.
My point is this...whats the use? Saving for future generations who wont give a damn once your soul exits your body? Im more bothered about the Here & Now...are we doing enough for the Here & Now...but doing everything possible for a tomorrow which we are not certain to even witness...
The Government is so hell bent on future initiatives that they have forgotten the current scene, grass root, basic issues of Poverty, Hunger, Power (I meant electricity) and of course corruption...I hate to lose confidence on my country and Im not willing to give up. Id like to fight...but theres always a price to pay!
With all the scams and controversies, we are not doing the rightful thing of serving this country with clean hands. Stains everywhere and blackened hearts...where is the light, where is the hope? Promises have been a dead slow process and reality is even further...
Crores has become a tag word for everyone who even hasnt been there in the thousand category as i described earlier. Its become a joke! Everyones pocket has ballooned up so much and become so huge that its become difficult to find the entry point...it has swelled and impregnated with paper and power...that we dont know where it all began and have no clue where this will all lead to...leave the end of it all!
I strongly feel that the day we know our limitations...we will know to live on contentment. Else we will be restless souls in an endless search for fame, wealth and power.
Rapes, Murders, Kidnappings, Terrorism, Thefts, Strikes, Riots, Suicides, Extortion, Arms, Hoarding...it all exists, Im not denying this at all. One must realize that where there is evil, there will always be good. No one is born evil, they are made so by people, purposes and situations...
My worry is that each part of India (North, East, West and South) have all been immersed in some burning issue that even dealing to solve is like burning ones fingers...thats how deep it has impacted us and this country's image.
Something else that worries me is the 'Chalta Hai / Parava Illa / Doesn't Matter' attitued and some issued have become literally like a slap in the face...If you want a positive future where sanity can prevail, we cannot be in a state which allows such absurdities to happen and then curtail in the name of the law...too little too late!
In Batman Begins, Bruce Wayne tells Alfred " I'm going to show the people of Gotham that the city doesn't belong to the criminals and the corrupt. People need dramatic examples to shake them out of apathy...and I cant do that as Bruce Wayne...A man is just flesh and blood and can be ignored or destroyed. But as a symbol... as a symbol, I can be incorruptible, everlasting."
This is where Im coming from...my heart aches for this country but somewhere my hands are tied as a human being...but id like to be a symbol that brings in that change...I dont know how or where...but I have a dream...for a better future...whose actions lie in today...the Here & Now...
Point is where will it all begin, where it would lead to, when it would end...no one knows. But we will certainly need one too many heroes for each issue rolling on and rescue us from such a misery. A hero can be anyone, that's the point of being a symbol!
I have a question for all the evil elements in this nation...Do you think this will last? I strongly feel that for peace, we have to prepare for war and this will come at a price...but are we willing to pay for this or continue in our current lifestyle of passivity and impasse? Ill leave it to you...but dont let your country down by inaction...dont let it fail by ignorance. Feel the fire, let it burn in our guts...stand up and shout!
Just because there is no one to question actions, people think that can lawless rampantly and then go into hiding? Do they think this tyranny will keep us all down? Of course we will survive, but can they? They were so wrong...Your buck stops here...from today!
Till the next cut is delivered...
Now that a long due rant is over, I can focus on more creative articles! Hopefully this is the last of the outpour! :)
