Point Return: An effort, a dream, a boon for posterity to cherish

Here's a man willing to go back to his roots for the sake of a better India by giving back what he might or might not have possibly taken from her.

No Spit Day

The most observable day to day activity of the residents of our land is ' Spitting ' . Just make an effort to see people around you......from the one walking in front of you to the one sitting in car with family or the one sitting beside you...............there comes a moment when they turn their head and leave the proof of their action along with the unpleasant sound of ' Aaaaaathoooo '. The common habit of chewing pan, tobacco or just spitting for fun / pleasure/ sore throat ( god knows what reason is it ) makes people spit not only on roads, but also on public property (visit any monument to witness the remnants of this act ) , and sometimes they don't even mind spitting on people ( applicable to the ones travelling by bus, car etc., who see nowhere and directly put their head out of the window..... and....spit...yes.....along with the unpleasant sound of 'Aaaaaaathooooo' ) . The roads/ lifts/ staircases ( common places where we find the area of spit high

A visit to India Gate

Out of Sight ....but not....Out of Mind...!! Wanted to write a blog only once I saw myself changing....and have I?...Yes,I have changed to some extent and will keep on changing until apocalypse :p :p (it was meant on a lighter note, people...dunno whether the world ends in 2012, and don't even want to specualte) With this post, I want to bring into light the common man's perception about the heritage of India.

Sense and Nonsense

Amidst the hope of a 'New India' with steps being taken to fight corruption,we are reminded of the other evils that persist predominantly in the nation, with the recent blast near the Delhi High Court. There is a lot of anger within, so it might seem that this post is more of a grievance sharing. But seeing innocent people being hurt makes my heart cry and my mind say "what the F***". When will we be a nation safe to live in. When will we, rather than saying "We are proud to be Indians" will act and stand up to fight against the nation-wide slaughter. When will we stop fighting in the name of religion, when no religion promotes CRIME or killing of innocent people. When will we start living as humans and not as cannibals...eating away the life of others.!!!.....SIGH !! With all this in my mind...when just about to catch some sleep, it felt as if 'Mother Earth' said - "if you don't do something, i sure will" - 'Earthquake in Delhi'
