Just Forget It....

I was a person of substance
Well that’s what I used to think
I was a person of dreams
Well that’s what I aimed for
I was a person with ideas
Well hat what my idea of myself was
Now, I am left with a void
Searching a substance in my life
Everyday dawns with a positive thought
Proceeds t a negative one by night
Every word I say, I am not sure of
Every act I do, I am not clear about
Every person I met, I estrange in a moment
Every friend I make, I lose in flash
Everything that happens, I have no control over
I've loosen all the strings
The life is running and I am drudging behind
I am soaked in the thoughts
I need to break myself open
I need to choose rather than follow
The life’s rule are not fair or may be
Or maybe just forget it….

China: better than India?

Many of us be it lay people, businessmen, economists and policymakers always try to draw parallels between India and China and try to project which will be economic Power by 2025 or 2050. However the article that I read about China was an eyeopener. It has reinforced the advantages of having Democracy in India. Though there are some benefits in the political situation that China has, the social impacts (like the one mentioned in this article) are far grave than Economic and Monetary benefits especially from Common Man's perspective.

India, Pakistan, US and Terrorism

Stability

We use the word stability in various situations. And I am refering to stability in "professional life" and "personal life". But what comes fisrt? whether Stable professional life leads to or should lead to a stable personal life or vice versa? I am really confused.

I never asked for a penny...............

They were interviewing Mr. Sunil Gavaskar on NDTV news channel. It seems that there is a major shuffle in IPL governing body and Mr. Gavasakar has been shown doors by Mr. Shashank Manohar.
The news anchor asked Mr. Gavaskar for his reaction on this issue..
Mr. Gavaskar- "It is strange to ask me this question because nobody from BCCI has even contacted me and what I am hearing about my expulsion is from news channels and I cannot react more on this"
News Anchor- "the reason that was given by BCCI was that they cannot afford to pay these experienced (legendary) cricketers and they can only be given honorary positions (as given to Mr. Ravi Shastri).
Mr. Gavaskar- "I have never asked for money whenever i served any position in BCCI"
Well that was very startling revelation Mr. Gavaskar. If what you are saying is true and you really have served any position without charging any fees; just because you have great respect for this game and you feel honored to just be at this position then hats off to you.. but really Mr. Gavaskar even if you would have charged money it would have been fine. You are a legend in Indian Cricket and you have to be an integral part of this game's any governing counsel.
Let us see people who made it to IPL governing counsel- Mr. Jyotiraditya Scindiya as a chairman of Finance Committee, Mr. Abdulla a chairman of Marketing committee, Mr. Rajeev Shukla (yes he has to be there) and i don’t remember others.
Why people like sindiya, abdulla are even in these committees and that also as chairman??? what marketing plans can Mr. Farooq come up with which will actually be comparable to those of Mr. Modi's. (I really feel bad for Modi because whatever people say, he was the man who was responsible for the success of IPL) Who are these people who decide (or will be deciding) how the game should be played? Have these people even held cricket bat when they were young?
This is so disappointing. Yes I forgot to mention; to keep Modi aside now they have dropped all the charges against Mr. Dalmiya.. wow nice move Mr.__________; well i am not going to write his name for two simple reasons; one as everybody knows his name and second I love my life too much. Well but this is ridiculous. Why these politicians are so greedy. Please at least keep yourself out of few things and let there be some sanctity in 'few things'.
But here again what Mr. Gavaskar said was very true and I have to mention it here- "given the kind of governance by BCCI, let we should not forget that it is one of the few governing bodies in sports in India where all the positions are shuffled periodically unlike other governing bodies of other sports"
Yes very true Mr. Gavaskar but when we look at these "modi-fication" I just can appreciate their "unity" and understanding to give chance to each other to "enjoy" the power which is lacking in other governing bodies of other sports in India and i think they should take lessons from "big brother" on these.
