Feeling weird....

I could see there are loads of people achieving great things in life. It instills a guilt in me that I am good for nothing. I am sure that most of you know Anish Sarkar a 3 year old who is the youngest to hold a rating in chess in the world. There are people who settle before 20. They are financially independent they have a job in hand but suddenly you are the most useless person. The feeling of being not good enough is common I think. I always feel why are we racing and where are we racing. We have timelines for everything and we rush to fulfill the timeline. But most of the time we fight with us.

Paper Vs Glass

On my way to my stay from my college, I witness a incident which disturbed me but not anymore. There is a construction going on near my stay and the workers are migrants from other state. I occasionally meet them in the tea shop. I get tea in a glass cup which is reusable and the tea master offers them their tea in a paper cup. Come on it's 2024 but still it's an issue. Historically the caste struggle has just shifted into class struggle by the so called educated people. In a society struggle is inevitable. I can't be in a utopian state to ask for a society without any struggles. But atleast struggle should not be for the dignity, it can be for improving their standard of living for affording the luxuries. But rather the struggle is here for dignity. I am not sure how would the workers feel about drinking in a paper cup. Should we be proud that there is a discrimination only in the cup but not in the cost of the tea. The concern here is not the paper cup but behind that, th...

Is it right ?

I went to temple yesterday while returning I saw a mom and her son decently dressed, they stopped me on my way I asked her enna akka (What sis). She extended her need for money stating that because of rains her job dealing with sand lifting was stopped for days and she is in need of some money to satisfy her needs and it's tough with her son he is a boy who is 12 years old (approx.). I barely had 20 rupees in my Gpay and a currency note of 200 which I carry for emergency. I had no cash left as I spent money just before that. I felt their plead genuine so I gave the only currency note I have. I am happy that I could help them but after few steps I saw a old lady who usually sells flower outside the temple and I bought flowers for 100 before entering the temple. Contrasting this incidents I felt I did something wrong.  Like a person who worked hard to buy those flowers from the market by investing some money got 100 rupees which includes the investment and profit the profit would be ...

Punishment for being a Victim...

In this world there are certain incidents were we are punished for others action. Like us being passive smokers. My nose can't stand the smell of the cigarette I cough in a instant when someone near me takes a puff. Like this there are several incidents where most of us are not responsible for the inconveniences we face. We are not the primary stakeholders for the mischievous things that happen around us but we become victims. When we step out we feel I am not responsible for this surrounding being this dirty, the potholes in the roads, the clogged drains in the streets, people starving under bridges, the traffic getting worse, long que in the government office and what not. It's an usual routine for us being a layman witnessing all this discomforts. Whatever it is we are confident it's not always us, but forgot that it's always one among us. May be we are bit lucky, we are living in a scenario where we have water, air, food and shelter. But after some centuries I am no...
