So much to say....
My new year resolution of posting minimum posts on face book has changed things for me. Its help me do different things in life. I have started trying my hands on cooking, reading and playing pc games at times (still gives pleasure to me). But more importantly it has changed me as a person. The extremism that these social networking was inculcating in me has probably come down. This was the main reason for the reduced posts. But then over last few weeks I was feeling I need to take my thoughts out on topics about which I did generally on the Face Book.
So what are those topics I have divided in this blog in four parts
Cricket, Movies, Elections and General.
Cricket
Last time I posted on Facebook India was struggling and that has not changed. What I find is its a team with talent but no aggression. Its a team with that is under performing and mostly disappointing their talent more than anything.
Is there anything that can be changed ?
Perhaps Coach as most starting with Sunny said. I say possibly have a better search for good bowlers and groom them. Have an exclusive bowling coach. A Srinath or then why not a Mcgrath. BCCI can afford the best. For general discipline to get in a Dravid can do wonders...hopefully the selection panel would think on this....
Movies
Last time I posted on Facebook we were seeing some big movies to do well. For instance Gunday or then Gulaab Gang. Both bombed for good. What worked was non conventional cinema. I happened to watch only one movie but it was the best I seen in a very long time. Fandry...just awesome...its a slap on the face of society that includes me. If you saw Fandry and you did not feel the slap on your face you are probably insensitive to the problems.
Election
Aah the big one. Kejriwal was set to do wonders the last time I posted on Facebook. But it was too end in an anti climax. My two cents for every political party and to the people who are generally seen debating over the internet.
Be loyal to India, to your ideology, be loyal to the vision, not to a Modi, Rahul or Arvind, or a Mamta or Jaya... This is not their problem, this is a problem in them. We worship these leaders like GOD. I see people more upset when they see some one comment against their favorite leader. But how many of us get upset when the driver from a car opens his windshield and spits on the road. How many of us gets upset when we see a shop keeper asking to forget about the receipts so he can save taxes,
Rather why are we not upset with ourselves for not able to stick to these principles. Believe me no GOD is going to save this country. Its only we and we alone together can do it.
Whom should I vote then ? Vote anybody and have good reasons for it. Keep the reasons to yourself. You are not required to defend them in public that serves no good. Influence people to follow the laws, to keep our city clean, to help each other. Stop wasting time in canvasing for parties our your favorite leader. They have man power and money to do it themselves.
What should parties do ?
Stop playing hatred politics. This message mainly for AAP whom I truly think can do these changes. WHY ? Because they are new, the clay is still wet. They can shape it more easily. AAP is trying to work on a plan to have a larger impact on the 2014 election. But lets look beyond May 16. AAP can come with a structure. Assign one person for every lok sabha constituency. Every assembly ward, every small section. Have a structure, of people who work for the citizens. They help them solve their problems over the years. Make these faces known to general public. So when the next election comes instead of telling what wrong others did you stand up and tell what right you are doing all these years. AND THAT IS ALTERNATIVE POLITICS...
General
Generally I feel we need to all get more social than on social network. I did a trek, went out on small trips. I sit with my family more often like before. When I get up in the morning I am not thinking why my posts don't have likes or have them been read or not. I am not arguing or differing on sites with people.
I am using internet as a slave than let it master me.... try this out...keep yourself out of facebook, whatsapp for a while..walk out to the street see that newspaper boy, see that bus conductor...observe the ticket checker...they all are posting some thing and they all are real...stop creating an Avatar on the facebook (like this is the guy who supports this party, this cricketer, this kind of life etc) and be flexible. At times be yourself...at times be just opposite of what you can ever be...even if you cannot paint take a brush and just rubs some lines. Even if you cannot sing, just say any song close to your heart...and when you are about to sleep don't see what was the last post on facebook...open a dairy and list down what good you did today, how you made some one else happy...
