To live long.....become a Politicians.....
Strange title, but has anyone ever observed every year there are many deaths due to bomb blasts, accidents and uncured curable diseases, who dies, you and me.....the so commonly found species called 'The Common Man'. How many times do these species called Politicians have you heard dying in these circumstances. Oh yeh, we do hear them getting killed in a mishap once in a blue moon.
Remember the Sarojni Nagar blast before Diwali in which the death toll was around 100 'The Common men'. Well, why talk of that only when we have these bomb blasts every year like we have our festivals. The only difference being the date on which they happen, may be because of the Hindu calender in which dates vary. They seem to have become a part of our lives now and doesn't seem to bother us much, but may be just for a week after actual event.
Ironic, we prepare for the festivals before they arrive but here we do the clean up after the blast has taken place. Oh what clean up....cleansing the hurt, pain & frustration off our minds..... and Move on...Ah! correction... Move over.
My mom often uses the phrase ' Only the wearer knows where the shoe pinches'......only the people who have lost their dear ones actually feel the heat of such events....may be that is why most of us who even though are just few meters away forget it so easily....or shall i say ease up so easily....
As 'The Common man', i feel i should too become a politician. That is the only way to cherish a long life if i really want to live. I can prove it, remember the attack on Indian Parliament in 2001, oh how can any Indian forget that, it had a dozen causalities none of them was a politician. It included 5 terrorists, 6 police men & 1The Common Man......
How i wish these species called Politicians could think about their country like they do about their own interests & the party they belong to.......
