United by World Cup, Hazare, yet Divided by IPL

Hello Folks,

A bit early but was getting a bit itchy to write and also have so many reasons to. First of all, thanks for the responses to the start I made, really felt a good need to continue to write.

I got a lot of questions as to what made me write a blog ?? what will it be about ?? and why am I writing it ?? (being no celebrity, it is really difficult to answer these questions), but the simple reason is OUTPOUR !!!

And, to a thought out explanation, my situation is like that of VVS Laxman, coming out to bat with 3 days to survive with all stalwarts back in the hut.....know what I am doing but the whole future concept not concretely thought off.....

To continue from where I left, our country justified the sense of Adaptability I could see oozing out of us and our fellow countrymen.

In a span of less than just a good week three images are doing the rounds of all Media Coverage and our minds.

 

Two pictures, show the unity, yet the third picture paints the thoughts of diversity, though quite a healthy rivalry and also the biggest sporting phenomenon after the SUPERBOWL and EPL in club sports.

This indicates the complexities of us, our identity and our character. We as a nation accept things on its pure face value and start living with everything we have, we aspire to have, we don't have and also things which we never are going to have. This complexities are like a complete alter ego in ourself, which flairs up on occasions when the tide is against us.

We come together and yet also hold on to our own petty grudges after ages and ages of education on the very insignificant basis of caste, creed, color, race (to add a new one migration). We pride on education and litreacy but with such irrationality we are still uneducated and proving the laughing ghost of Winston Churchill right that we are not fit to be Independent.

We still need a 72 year old man to fight for our causes with people elected by us and we pride on youth empowerment. Its not the Government, not the Nation and certainly not any other external factor that requires CHANGE more than WE do INDIVIDUALLY. Always easy to find faults in friends, family, associates and all others but when it comes to self WE pass 100 on 100 on Self Evaluation.

Try writing a paragraph on things you as a person need to change and then any other person who you feels needs a change, it will show tremendous results.

Well KUDOS to Mr. Hazare to bring out the real value of ideas advocated by Mahatma Gandhi rather than just putting up his pictures, statues and winning votes for him being a EX CONGRESSMAN. I feel personally very happy that he will eat now.

On a much lighter note, the first packet of the 2 months Circus lived upto the expectation of us viewers, Raavi blasting on the Microphones and players performing as in a well organised and practiced performance to generate enough hype, tension, excitement and a mystery suspense to the end. SRK, dude you cannot WIN everywhere by tears....sometimes they are Genuine and for a Lost cause too.......

A sincere thanks to Mr. Modi, wherever he is watching his baby being Foster Parented by the Self Proclaimed Honest Individuals handling BCCI and IPL, who donot know the first law of INDEPENDENCE when dealing in ventures with Self Vested Interests........but yea very Powerful and Manupilative. Await your turn, till more powerful people enter the forray.

Enough for the nite as the Weekend is dedicated to Ernst & Young (oops S R Batliboi) damn LLP Act Implementation !!

Please offer some contradictory views to have a Constructive Dialogue :p 

ADIOS !! God Bless !!
