Violence is a profound ignorance.

War- a period of conflict.
The vast amount of violence a war stores inside it is actually an outcome of profound IGNORANCE.

“Hiroshima and Nagasaki”

What comes in your mind after reading these two names??

Do you think about the USA victory over Japanese during World War- II? NO. Certainly NOT!!

What you think about is that approximately one lakh of populace lost their lives immediately after the deadly nuclear explosion took place. Harmful radiations suck their lives brutally. Generations after generations faced the poisonous and lethal impact of these explosions in their lives.
Besides burns and wounds, general malaise, fatigue, headaches, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, abnormally low white blood cell count, bloody discharge, anemia, loss of hairs, keloids (massive scar tissue on burned areas), cataracts, leukemia and other cancers became commonly faced diseases to be written in the health cards of people.

When USA attacked Japan, it forgot everything about humanity. The tag being called as “emerging superpower” made USA to take this conceited, big headed decision to drop the nuclear bombs over the innocent people and proved USA’s IGNORANCE.

World War I and World War II- became the world’s most deadly wars happened till date. How can one forget Hiroshima and Nagasaki, being the first cities to face the devastating power of nuclear weapons?
Thousand wars for independence.

Thousands wars for liberation.

Since so many decades, so many cold wars are continuing among various countries creating violence, havoc and damage to humankind.

Terrorism- the new, latest, and alarming ongoing war now seems to be a war next door.

On the name of Jihad- terrorist are made to believe that they will knock the doors of Jannat (heaven) if they will fight. I would say it’s a sheer act of IGNORANCE.

I guess before holding the gun, terrorist never ask few questions like-
"Fight for what? "
"For whom am I fighting? "

Terrorist forget that one should fight for the wrong. And it’s completely and absolutely wrong to kill innocent people.
They are IGNORANT of the fact that how come their sinful and immoral act of killing innocent people can let them have blessings of Almighty?

Soldiers have to kill each other but for no rightful reason. Often war happens out of religious and political dogma which has no reason to start fighting.

How the IGNORANT minds can forget that when there will be no humanity left, whom you will fight for?
The base of War is baseless if its foundation is laid upon IGNORANCE.

What are we saving for our future generation?

Records of how many wars took place in history? How many terrorist attacks killed how many thousand people? How much time their country won in thousands wars that took place?

I guess, IGNORANCE is still known over the fact that our coming generation would be happy to know how many times countries supported each other at the times of calamities? How many times countries celebrated together, happily? How humanity was saved and was taken care of and

How violence seemed a lost word in the dictionary......

" I "

You question me, I don’t mind,
You scold me, I don’t mind,
You advice me, I don’t mind,
As I thought you are mine.
But please, understand me for while.
I will tell everything but after sometime.
Right now, time is what I need for myself,
Right now, support is what I need for myself.
How should I explain the pain I go through?
How should I explain the deathly feeling I go through?
The inner self fights hard,
Do you know how much blood I lost?
I’m tired, I cannot explain through words,
But don’t mistake it as my confusion on the behalf of myself.
You don’t know anything,
I’m trying my best to settle everything.
Cries, tears, can anyone see?
No.
Pain, sufferings, can anyone see?
No.
For my failure, don’t think that I don’t consider myself guilty.
I do say that I’m guilty.
Every minute, every second, I know it’s my less hard work,
And that’s why I faced the failure.

But I have lost all my energy,
I cannot concentrate on anything.
These talks might seem like mere dialogues,
As you never see the actions that you can think off,
But please forgive me for these delays,
Don’t crucify me for these delays.
I know I’m taking it slow,
But what can I do when my foot is bleeding and I can’t move.
The hope in me has died,
The positivity has lost its shine,
I’m not able to see who I was,
I’m trying to find who I was.
May be I know, But just can’t catch the older myself,
As right now, I don’t have strength to uphold myself.
I know I’m the reason for the degradation,
But I guess mistakes are made by human himself,
Now when I want to put everything right,
They why analyse my past so abrasively.
If you think I’m excusing myself,
Then I won’t say anything.
I thought silence can convey anything,
May be I'm wrong, but right now it doesn't seem to say anything.

Scary hours @ Hospital

My feet trembled as I passed few hours at the hospital, a place where I hate to go. Scenes at the hospital shook me completely!!! Cries, wounds, blood, lifeless body and much more.....

*********

“Oh please Dad, everyone drives bike these days. Why Can’t I? You said you will give a gift if I clear my engineering entrance exam. I cleared it, so please, now get me a bike?”
“O.K son!! I will buy one for you. I have no issues. The reason I’m resisting it because I know you drive rash.”
“I PROMISE, I won’t drive rash.”
“Hmmm.. O.K. I will get it for you”
“Thanks Dad. You are great. Love you”
“Son?“
“Yea dad”
“We love you. Never forget that”

“Vrooooommmmmmmmmmm. Here I go.....Wow. What a bike. What a pick up. Dad has picked up a good running machine for me. I love it.” said Son.
Flashlight. Dipper. Banging horns. An overloaded tanker came chasing by.

One hit.
One accident.
One call “your son met with an accident”

Father lost hopes.
Mother fainted.
As family was poor so son was admitted to a government hospital. Doctors, nurses, everyone tried their best to save him.

And finally Son is saved.
Son is breathing.
Son is free from injuries.
Son can listen.
Son’s metabolism is working fine.

Just- He can’t drive his bike. As he can’t afford to move, he is in coma state, since past 7days.

*********


“I’m going for the bank work. Taking scooter.” said Husband.
“O.K, do take your helmet, police is keeping a strong eye these days” said wife.
“Oh dear, bank is just a lane away, don’t need the helmet”

One careless drive in one’s own locality and then suddenly a speedy swift takes over, suddenly changes its lane, comes in front of scooter, and put its brakes. Scooter smashes inside. Brain hit the road.

One hit.
One accident.
One call “your husband met with an accident”

As it was an accidental case so husband was rushed to the Government hospital. Luckily his head injury though looked serious but wasn’t. But if it would have been then there was a reason to worry as he got his C.T scan after 6hours of his accident. Mind it. Indian Government hospital!! But mind it too that for any head injury, CT scan is an immidieate need.

**********

“It’s feels great to be with you” said newly wedded bride.
“Yea, by God’s grace finally we together. I promise to love you and stay with you forever” said Groom.

Two months passed. Couple had just returned from their sweet honeymoon and husband was going to the market to collect his honeymoon photographs on his newly R15 bike which he got as his wedding gift. He did nothing but just made speeding needle to touch 80Kmps.

Bike skid. He lost control.

One hit.
One accident.
One call “your husband met with an accident”

Again an accidental case, so he too was rushed to the government hospital. This time, it was the case off severe head injury. And so after two days, bride had to leave her bright red saree and had to come to the hospital to watch her husband’s lifeless body.

**********
Readers, my only one request to you all- DRIVE SAFE!! Not for yourself, but for your close ones. I guess this reason should be enough to make you all realize that you should drive safely.

And my another request is to the government- kindly uplift the facilities and staff of the government hospitals.

Watch the Flipping side of the Media: On Manglore Air Crash, 2010

Indian Airline Boeing, IX-812, blew away up in flames on 22-May-2010 while landing at the Manglore Airport, India, which was inaugurated for handling the International flights just eight days back before the crash took place.

Side I of the Media coverage:

Breaking News flashed by the media: “Manglore now gifted with its International Airport. Great present by Mr. Praful Patel, Minister of aviation Industry”
Praful Patel said, “It’s great that the airport can now be used for International flights. Though its runaway is 1000 ft short, so I will request the ministry to extend the runway soon”

(Readers, kindly pay notice to the fact that this statement of Mr. Praful Patel was recorded and shown on TV.)

Side 2 of the Media Coverage:

Breaking news flashed by the media: “Indian Airline Boeing crashed. Runway falls short. Manglore Airport was not according to the standard of being declared as International Airport.”


Media, our so called truthfully responsible medium of information flips side so innocently, that we become their victims of their innocence so idiotically!!


WE VIEWERS, WATCH THEIR BREAKING NEWS, ACT ACCORDING TO THE TONE OF THE MEDIA.

How?? Have a look then!!

To begin with, news come stating- “a new international airport inaugurated at Manglore”. We feel happy and think that wow!! Government is doing something for the people. Development can be seen. We even watch the great speech of Mr. Praful Patel where he gets successful in impressing us. Now as being a common man, obviously we don’t know the standard, or say eligibility that must be fulfilled by an airport before being declared as an International airport. So apparently when we heard Mr. Praful patel saying that he will request the additional 1000 ft for the runway at Manglore airport, we felt that he was concerned with the safety of the people. Such a great man!!

(Don’t forget this time media didn’t tell anything about the standard of an international airport)

Now eight days later,

Another news headline hit our TV screens, stating “148 passengers died”. Now we feel sorry for them. And this time, our source of information, our sweet media added one more news stating- “runway falls short by 1000 ft. Mr. Praful Patel showed haste in declaring the airport fit for landing and taking off for the international flights. Airport fails the criteria of being an international airport.”

Wow. Now we hate this man. We curse him along with government. We think that how irresponsible our country’s administration is.
Same tone is followed by the media his time. And so media’s harsh words for Mr. Praful Patel, make us feel at a bit ease. And we think; wow!! Yes!! Now media will trap this man and he won’t be able to escape.

(Don’t forget this time media provided us with full information starting with standard to how this plane got crashed, the irresponsible attitude of Mr Praful Patel)


Ever wondered, we always tend to react the way media want. We watch their news, help them to gain all the TRP’s and earn money, and in the end, like an idiot, waste our time on reacting to an incomplete-complete breaking news.

Wake up Media!!!

Do I need to tell you guys that its duty of the media only that each and every single bit of news you present before us should be complete, authenticated and analysed before making it as a news headline?
I wonder how come you guys came up with the information on the standard of an international airport just after the minutes of crash???
How?
How could you neglect the statement of Mr. Praful Patel on the day airport was inaugurated??

STOP befooling us. Kindly recapitulate your responsibilities.

Wake up People!!!

Just do NOT act according to media. Apply some part of your brains too. If media is unable to analyse a situation properly then make them realize, and if can’t do that, then atleast STOP viewing that TV screen and STOP acting like puppets to their incomplete news.

She

Truthfully accepts all lies,
Dried up tears, she cries.
Agrees with all disagreements,
Lifeless dreams, she imagines.
Selflessly destroys the self,
Cheerless grin, she smiles.
Wakes with awaken decease,
Sleepless night, she sleeps......

1-Thousand

One 'truth',
Fights against thousand lies.
One 'death',
Fights against thousand lives.
One 'heart',
Fights against thousand hidden secrets.
One 'faith',
Fights against thousand unknown mistrusts.
One 'beginning',
Fights against thousand destinations.
One 'end',
Fights against thousand inaugurations.
One 'love',
Fights against thousand afflictions.
One 'hatred',
Fights against thousand violence.

'One',
Fights against thousand.


Thousand 'lies',
Love hiding the sole truth.
Thousand 'lives',
Love that at a time just one dies.
Thousand 'hidden secrets',
Love piercing inside the heart.
Thousand 'mistrusts',
Love slapping the faith so hard.
Thousand 'destinations',
Love changing their beginnings.
Thousand 'inaugurations',
Love to have different endings.
Thousand 'afflictions',
Love the game of separating love.
Thousand 'violence',
Love deceiving the hate with its cover-up.

'Thousand',
Loves no one.

Is Love a commitment?

If five hours of talk can seem like five seconds,
I won’t mind giving my time,
If every morning I find my love beside me,
I won’t mind starting my routine with a smile.
If it’s truly love, my each said word is affection,
My heart follows my counter heart, my soul companion.
No compromise with oneself, love is a union,
Love is free, limit-less,
Love is strength, supports each other needs,
At a deeper level, Love is a platonic deed.
Is Love a commitment? Never,
Love is a bliss, eternal, happiness forever.
