The new face of the old India

For quite some time now we the new Indians are fighting over the fact “whether or not to choose a foreign country to stay”

Numerous books and articles have been written. Numerous anecdotes, movies and stories are there which support both sides of the theory,

 

One movie recently called the Slumdog Millionaire, raised some concern among people with no other interest other than some quick prints in news media. The hoopla was about the name Slum DOG, well, I know of people in Slums who happily term their own lives as slums and accept it. They never complain, since who cares.

They will be rather happy to be given 10 rupees to shut the **** off whenever required.

 

The movie has one sentence that really surmises it all. You want to see India , then that is it. I don’t know about the others, but I personally believe that the movie will not get an Oscar, It has a happy ending, but there was agony written all over it since the clock started ticking for these guys,

I am no critic, and neither will I be a good one If I have to present a case as such, but India as a country was gifted by the gods in terms of contrast in climate, geographical conditions .

 

If anyone were to read me here properly, what I mean is that , What USA offers today to the world with its concretized cities and manicured outskirts was ages back incomprehensible to the human mind . During those times, a country like India provided better opportunities, When foreigners from harsh climates  and uncivilized brutal savagery came to this country, they smelled something different.

Wow, this provides better opportunities, Lets settle here.

 

In todays world, that same post of being the heaven on earth is held by America. The name that actually, gives hope to many Indians that somehow , by some hook or by some crook, once I am there , it settles my score with god.

 

I was once termed a loser for looking down on my country. But I was never able to explain myself that it is out of love I deny ducth patriotism that has started to take root in our country’s youth.

 

Could not see Federer cry today

God knows,

why it happened this way,

Sometimes you feel that yes there are gods in this planet and they exists and yes atleast some are able to fight their fights the mans way and have it make them reach greatness all the way ,

 

But somehow,today that feeling was lost, I just could not manage to look at Roger go cry.

I now know the importance of not crying in front of your children, or lets say your students, that way you destroy the idea of greatness,

 

Well, Fedex has no idea what I think or a man like me even can exist, But somehow, I feel connected . I don’t watch Tennis that much ,neither in the last few years of his reign did I falter to keep the news channels on whenever he won.

The Rolex add is a such a personification of the greatness that he is.

 

Now when people are making choices between Rafa and Fedex, I still am of the thought that greatness doesn’t have to lose and go,

there comes a time in every greats life when is not compared but he simply leaves,

 

Bradman did in his time, Jordan did multiple times, Muhammad Ali had his own exit, but not this way Fedex, you need to prove anything any more

 

 

 

Writing starts back in 2009

                Today is a very sad day ,

It is a Sunday , and the 1^st of February , Met a very old friend. But was not in my elements,

Roger Federer is down, back comes Nadal

 

Somehow behind that quiet exterior, I think Federer has a fire hoing up , he was actually, put to

no test in the last few years,

Now he is seeing the real danger in Nadal, Today he was losing his calm all throughout the game,
he my idol the quiet guys is all down at this moment.

I am not sure what to write and the fiery of thoughts that visit me all the time as I sit here in this plain

room thinking about the living gods of our times,

Seldom do you see Heroes, Yes Sourav Ganguly was one, Michael Jordan definitely a number one in world

sports history, but still many call it a conspiracy theory with what he did, to make go as big as possible

in the world of history,

 

a huge publicity stunt, but whatever the world comes to Fedex is not is in all his elements, and the talent in him

has to outgrow the softness and the malleability that he has put to himself, the rust is not doing him any good,

he needs to shed that off , and the sooner the better,

 

he will be in top form given the age for another 3 years at max and that I think should prove to all the greatness in him

 

He has it in him to put down the firewall like Nadal , and he can do it we all know. I know to prove your greatness you have

to come through great failures, and I just hope that this is one of those times, when the great Fedex will be down for sometime

before he finally comes back to reclaim his position.

 

God, why could I not grow into anything like a tennis player. They are the real heroes
