Hello Readers,
How are you all?
Welcome to yet another chronicle of this extraordinary fool.
This one took place on a Thursday morning, you know how those busy mornings are, you leave the house with a piece of toast sticking out from your mouth, your bag hanging on your shoulder, that quick pace in your walk looking at your watch from now and then. I got to the bus stand adjoining to my colony "Vikas Kunj Apartments", the bus stop is that of "District Center" which is at a 5 minute walking distance from it (its so confusing to tell people on which bus stop they should get off). Well, then began the everlasting wait for a bus that just doesn't show up .. and when it came it just didnt stop on its designated spot so I had to run for it (you know how they say your life flashes in front of your eyes, that shit ain't true) and when I ran I dont know what it was on the road but i slipped and fell next to the bus and cursed out loud, i guess a few people heard it too because they looked at me funny (not with pity or sympathy that i fell but, funny). Next was the crowded and stuffy bus ride to my college and that was 50 mins long.
I crossed the road and got to the side of my college like every other day but, today I witnessed something appalling, two kids were scaring a puppy dog and pelting him with stones (but, thats just something kids do right? thats just way too normal to be noticed and pondered upon right...?? Wrong) while calling out these very words "jai bhole shankar" thats one of the sayings equivalent to praise the lord(for the readers who dont know hindi). I was taken aback by this little incident. How mutilated has our society become that even the little kids, the youngest of our society are learning to impose fear in the name of god, how is it that a seed to create and enforce fear in the name of god is planted even in the little ones, the ones who are supposed to shape our society?? Last I heard god was to be loved you know, not feared so, I wanted to stop those kids but i didn't, I just couldn't because I knew they were not the culprits here. I wonder what fruit would such a society bear, what would life be like under the fear of god's name.
I personally despise a man made for religion because it is religion that is made for man, for us to try to understand what god is, too bad the entire thing is just backfiring.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT IT??
How are you all?
