Whatever happens happens for good 'some' say
'Others': Man maketh his own destiny
I have always frowned on 'some'
and have been inspired by 'Others'
I have been a dreamer
whose hope for life is built on his dream
I say,
What good is derived when you see
results that are far from hope
Eventhough you have given your best
you see yourself at median, at best
It requires unfathomable hope
to think that you would succeed just after a failure that has left you broken
Since
Fear feeds doubt , doubt eats up hope
and hope cripples perception
the very perception of your abilities seems diluted
then the dilution of your dream is initiated
'Others' and 'some' go through the same
'some' accept dilution as destiny
'Others' find diltuion against their "destiny"
the fight against dilution is very long
and refuge to 'some' seems to come along
At this point i wonder if i am wrong
but i wouldnt be able to live if 'some' is where i belong.
The great wall of CHINA
The peace march at gateway against terror attacks of mumbai was an expression of frustration and anger which was very much justified. Government, Politicians and policy implementations were scoffed at. Blogs and mails carried the same sentiments.
We take freedom of expression for granted ,well some regional parties take it toooo much for granted, i must say i am thankful that i have freedom of expression and i am a citizen of democratic India. If this thanks seems too over the top be read along.
I had heard that during Beijing olympics the performers of the inauguration ceremony were made to stand for long hours in a restricted environment. The Chinese officials were considerate enough to make arrangements for natures call. The performers were made to wear diapers!!!!!. I had heard more humiliating accounts like forced vasectomy for birth control and forced evacuation during Shanghai development.
A subtle, effective and sinister approach is employed by China to influence public opinion over internet.
Opinions can be freely expressed over the internet, posted anonymously and they reach far and wide quickly. Rather then gagging the netizens , China employs people who post comment in favor of government and each positive comment is worth 50 Chinese cents. The following is the account i have taken from BBC :
A document released by the public security bureau in the city of Jiaozuo in Henan province boasts of the success of this approach.
It retells the story of one disgruntled citizen who posted an unfavourable comment about the police on a website after being punished for a traffic offence.
One of the bureau's internet commentators reported this posting to the authorities within 10 minutes of it going up.
The bureau then began to spin, using more than 120 people to post their own comments that neatly shifted the debate.
"Twenty minutes later, most postings supported the police - in fact many internet users began to condemn the original commentator," said the report.
Also i have read that there are filters deployed that block blogs with words "democracy" , "freedom" etc.
The following are the two pages for more info :

the thread then and now
Once upon a time
Her pearl black eyes use to shine to show me the reflection of her love
Her lips use to curl and a beautiful smile use to unfold at the slightest hint of love
When her slender fingers use to touch, my heart use to race
my words use to melt and my eyes use to close,
i loved that command, i loved that submission
i wanted her rule, i wanted her supervision
Through her flowery frangrance and her soft voice she wrapped around me her arms of love
i loved that cuddle and loved that closeness such that it blended in me and my soul
i needed her mind to think
i needed her arms to sink , couldnt walk without her.
Little did i realize that i was so woven into her
that there was no thread individual to my life.
Suddenly
The lips curled but with a frown
the eyes dint shine,a hollow had replaced the reflection,
the same slender finger pointed, for me to go
i was a thread separated from the fabric of her love
waiting to be woven, pleading to be attached, begging to be one.
Lonely and dejected i waited for her to come
The darkness of the night provided cover for my tears
The stray light through the window, stark darkness in the room and the breeze flagging my curtains
symbolized my despondent mind
Gradually
The instinct of survival prevailed,
A voice, a sentence helped me sail
"Its my life"
A fight to open my eyes to the fact
shes gone and the feeling are all wrong
Anger and cursing seemed too weak to uproot
the memory roots from deep within
Then i realized that their nourishment was me and dawned the trick to let go
Slowly and steadily i saw the picture that feelings had no subject to show
The thread that was thrown changed forever
realized that it could never want to be attached as a string
instead grow and adorn colors that it likes
and hope that someday that the fabric it grows into
finds another of the same kind that can be great together being woven independently.
