Shocked !!!

I have been seeing lots of reality shows lately. Ohhh !! No No ..... not the ones which showcase
ones expertise or some exuberant talent; but the ones which show the devil side of the so called 
"human beings". It leaves me shattered for days, I get depressed and reconcile in lots of thinking.
Words like humanity, care, love seem lost in this callousness of marsh. The foundation of our values 
shakes when you see one killing his own brother, a guardian becoming the life taker, friend 
stabbing from your back and countless other horrifying episodes. Have we forgotten the pain we felt seeing someone our crying in vain??

I pondered & then realized; fame, money and most importantly "EGO" does it all..... Money has taken away from us the essence of sweet smile when we help someone non-profitably. EGO has congested us with coldness, and when we see someone, we love, flourish and prosper more than us, all we can be is dementors (reference Harry Potter) in human form.

I really don't have answers to many question which have left me blank, all I can do is ask
myself where the end lies for this; and my heart, like an old man taking up his
stick in one and support of wall from other hand, stands up slowly and walks away quietly!!!!

The shows which have influenced me to write above, are follows :
Crime patrol
Gumrah
I am not sure if they are truly real incident as they say!

"President of India" : Do we have a say ?????


All these days, what I see in the newspaper is the twist and turn for presidential candidature.We know our constitution hasn't given much rights to the President of India directly. But isn't the fact that he (or she - Pratibha Patil being the 'efficient' one) being the head of Republic of India (that is what Wikipedia quotes at least), a good enough reason, that there should be unanimous decision in choosing him? It's always the case, that ruling party has a major say in choosing him. And this is the irony which has made us leave with no other option.

We, who choose our own prime minister (clarifying that we actually don't choose our own "PRIME MINISTER", but we choose which political party would present us with a prime minister). Given a bunch of choices we put our stamp blindly on a sheet, which will unfold (read 'shun') dreams of many in this Republic of India. And when we open our eyes, we see a person whom we are not even sure of & whether he would be able to lead us in any way. Without any much objection we accept him to be someone who will govern us concurrently!!!

But as always, we do "HOPE" that he might bring changes which all of us are eagerly waiting for. And to my amusement and everyone's despair, nothing much good occurs!!! And then, since we have given him another big task of choosing the President of India, he leaves no stone unturned in choosing someone who would unanimously be beneficial to him!!!

And here we wonder where we went wrong?? 

Surely not much of our mistake, but now there is a need to change those laws, to give us more encumbrance in choosing our own President and before that, the right to elect our own Prime minister. Yet again the same question arises of who would take initiative to change the law or pass the bill in parliament ?

And still I suspect, "Do we have a say????"....
