From my sister's diary 5

* Sometimes we fall down by the wayside and can't keep pace with the flow of time. But the others still move forward keeping no trace for us to follow. It's not because we are weak, neither the bumpiness of road. But because We, sometimes can't understand how long our next step should be. To move forward always requires one step only, nevertheless we think two steps would be faster..

* A man, having spent the whole of his life amidst splendor never thinks to be fallen prey to decay in death bed! But the 'reverse' is truth! Truth never depends on anybody's thinking. Truth gets exposed in its own way..

Life, a strange play is!

*

They name it life.

Meseems, I've boarded on a train,

and launched into eternity through the alley of green;

running and running, yet the destination is uncertain...

at an unknown station, running towards ...

Duplicity

'The oppressed' shouldn't be considered by name or religion rather they should be known as oppressed only. They, being a particular part of society have the right to get proper treatment, care and facilities irrespective of caste or religion that are provided in a society and enjoyed by mass people. They also have right to lead life like other citizens..

But the irony lies here when we shout out one issue regarding oppressed people and remain deaf and dumb on another just dividing 'the oppressed' on the basis of religion or geographical border and overlook the pangs, agonies they go through, we remain no less guilty than the oppressor just by being silent..

...................................

Yes, the situation may be reverse, there mayn't be scope in our hand to aid them but we at least can create awareness among the common people by publicizing the truth regarding real pictures of 'the oppressed', the distress they are going through.

But if we keep a partial view to stand in support of the oppressed by drawing a borderline of religion, then the word 'humanity ' which has become a buzzword these days loses it's meaning terribly and appeal as well. At the same time, the sense of humanity of us- the civil citizens comes into question!!
