I'M BACK

Recently I've had the privilege of someone telling me to stop blogging. And that someone (the comment was posted anonymous and so I'm maintaining the anonymity) also said what I wrote was terrible. And he/she/it was right. I wrote for the sake of writing something and that was wrong. It was like the padma awards. Our government gives away the padma awards for the sake of just giving them away as a ritual but not because it thinks the recipients deserve them.

Honestly, what the hell did saif ali khan do? And many more such people. They did some work alright, but do they truly deserve the awards. What was the reason? "If obama can get noble prize I can get bharatha ratna"? In the recent past we've been witnesses of many slaps. slaps in the face of democracy. Netas shamelessly saying "we don't have money to give an exgratia to the victims of a tragedy .But we do have enough money to make freakishly big garlands of Rs.1000 notes".

The padma awards and the bharath ratna should be given to people who truly deserve them not just because its that time of the year. Today any jackass with his freakishly unbelievable amounts can buy any award. Can anyone ever honestly say that everyone who got the padma awards or the bharath ratna are in the same league as Mother Teresa or MS Subbalakshmi? Getting a trophy doesn't make a winner. Getting an award doesn't make any one a great person. The world knows the truth. The likes of Mother Teresa do not need an award for people to know how great they actually were and are.
