Dreams, the parallel world of inspiration

Posted by The_Truth_Seeker - - 0 comments

        Having a dream is always a wonderful thing. Dreams are not some mere fragments of imagination. It's actually a window to the tomorrow he hope for or some times fear about. Having a dream will always keep you concentrated on your goal. The point in life where you want to be.
           It's amazing how some dreams makes some people stand out from the rest and they are called "The Greats" and always remembered as they have made their mark in history.But the wonders that dreams could bring to you also brings you the burden of pain when they are crushed by the hands of hard reality.And it hurts a lot.

               The definition of what we dream for differs from person to person, Some one may dream of adventure and some may dream of peace. for some a sail through the roaring ocean or owning a race car may be part of their dream.Some may even dream of wealth and it may never seem enough.
     
And there are some who dream of peace of mind, And believe me it is the hardest thing you could ever hop for. The state of absolute peace, where you feel nothing but satisfaction about what you are having. 
Lost in the present moment and care free about the tomorrow you may or may not have, 
                                                                                   
 
to feel the breeze whispering in your ears, 
to feel the rain drops quenching nature's thirst,
to feel the beauty of silence.
to feel completely human in this mechanical world,

        let us dream for the tomorrow we may have, there are no guarantees but there are no price tag on them too...Dreams celebrate the freedom of mind and the limitlessness of imagination. Let us live with hope and the essence of humanity.

MULLAPERIYAR , We Have the right to live

Posted by The_Truth_Seeker - - 0 comments

          The Mullaperiyar Dam has been a hot issue politically and legally between the two Southern States of India, namely, Tamilnadu and Kerala for a while now. the 155 ft tall Dam was constructed in 1895 using only lime and surki and its over 116 years old now , against an average life span of 50 years for such dams world wide. The dam is operated by the Government of Tamilnadu based on a 999-year lease agreement made during British colonial rule, between the British Government (Madras Presidency) and the Travancore Maharajah. The catchment areas and river basin of River Periyar downstream include five Districts of Central Kerala, namely Idukki, Kottayam, Ernakulam, Alappuzha and Trissur with a total population of around 3.5 million. 


        In 1970 the Kerala and Tamil Nadu governments signed a formal agreement to renew the 1886 treaty almost completely. The Idukki hydro electric project, located 30 km downstream was completed in 1976 by the Kerala government, is still the major resource (about 30%) for irrigation and electricity needs of Kerala. After Independence the areas downstream of the Mullaperiyar become heavily inhabited, as Kerala has a very high population density. In 1979, safety concerns were raised by Kerala Government after a minor earthquake, after which a few leaks were detected in the Mullaperiyar dam. The IIT ROORKEE had reported that the structure would not withstand an earthquake above magnitude 6 on the Richter Scale.


       Now these are the technical facts but what hurts me most is the indifference of national parties and channels towards the issue at hand. If the fight was about who gets to use the Dam , the standings of them would have been satisfied. But it's not the case here. The people as well as the Government of Kerala is more than willing to give away the water supplies that the Tamilnadu Government Claims rightfully their's. Even though Periyar is not an inter state river The Keralities  have no issues with giving it to them. The Kerala Govt is proposing the construction of a new dam that could be relied up on and they promises to keep up the agreement.  
BUT NO ONE IS LISTENING TO US OR CONSIDERING THE RISK THAT OUR LIVES ARE AT
       Don't we have the right to live ? 
       Don't we have the right to protect the years worth savings of our family?
       Don't we deserve a chance at tomorrow just like anyone else? 
Now Consider the event of an Earthquake happening in the near future , The 116 year old Dam can't withstand a strong or medium level earthquake any more ( and there has been plenty of earthquakes of magnitude 2 - 4 in last couple of weeks). If that happens the Idukki Arch Dam won't be ab;e to withstand the that shock. and lives of 3.5 million people will be washed away into the Arabian sea just like that.


         Let me sleep now believing that there would be a tomorrow after all.......

The "JAN LOKPAL BILL"

Posted by The_Truth_Seeker - - 0 comments


         INDIA is on the verge of a social revolution. The people are standing against the system, which fails to fulfill the needs of a common man. Mr Anna Hazare or Anna for many of people who believe in him, made a choice to Stand up for his beliefs. He may not have given people a new realization of our system. Rather he gave a voice to the muffled sufferings of thousands of common INDIANS. The youth follows him not thinking how cool it would be to rebel against the system but on behalf of their beliefs that he speaks for them. 

          A number of celebrities as well as famous figures came out to support the cause. Now these are the aspects I so selectively chose as I am one among the youth who yearns for a new INDIA, An INDIA that stands up against world upholding it’s thousands of years old heritage. INDIA is not the land of snake charmers anymore, It’s a Land which survived centuries of enslavement and exploitation and yet been able to rise to its feet blow after blow. We are not puppets to any; we are free individuals who respect freedom of others as well. We are not far away from a tomorrow where we will present our nation for as example for next generation.
       Now coming back to the topic, what is actually going on here? We are requesting to pass the “JAN LOKPAL BILL” which enables to file petitions and take actions against corruption at all levels of the system. The main point is on getting the investigation complete in time and ensuring the punishment takes place in time too. The bill calls for two committees at state and central govt. Level with as much as man power and fund they need to have. Well the problem lies in the demands and implementation. No common man will never say that the cause is not worth enough but are we demanding too much too early? And who decides the right men for the right job?
         My concern with the current demands and the Anna hazare movement is the practicality of their demands and issues within the core committee. To demand for a new parallel system that could totally overpower the existing elected and Govt. Sector is hoping for too much too early. We can’t totally shut down a system that has been in use for decades. What we need is a  steady change towards the better tomorrow. If the PM is to answer every petition filed against him, who will steer the Govt Through. I believe the lower levels are the ones dealing with the public, let them be investigated, if they can show or higher level involvement is detected move on to the higher levels. That’s just an Opinion but thing that worries me guys like Baba Ramdev & issues within the core committee.
            Let’s hope for a better tomorrow with the youth taking the driving seat. Ya just hope as there are signs of a revolution taking place.

Smiles And Tears............
        I will always see them as a special gift given only to The ""human"" beings,,,...
Its a special set of emotions that posses a thousand mysteries of its own.......
       It conveys so many meanings in so very little span of time...
They are like beautiful diamonds gifted to mankind ,,,..But like diamonds they are precious only when they are pure...

      A tear may convey a Thousand shattered dreams yet The same runs down your cheeks when you are overwhelmed with joy,,,,,
strange isn't it???????
A tear is often the purest form of affection and love . Because A Tear is only shed for something we care about..and its hard to imitate on ones own....yet there are cunning people who could fake their way through tears......putting everyone else under false impressions..........

Yet the most beautiful emotion according to me is a smile which keeps a beautiful story to itself........It could be telling you anything.....
joy,pain,disappointment,affection,love.......&The list is not over by far......
A smile on your loved one's face fills you with joy... & is there anything as cute as a innocent baby's smile...
Its said that even the angles envied us & May be we are worth it...
So just smile... for its the most precious emotion mankind posses

Being Frank & Being Myself

Posted by The_Truth_Seeker - - 1 comments

                    Living in a world of pretenders , who never shows their true self , can be very stressful. Even more for some one who believes that being frank is everything in life.......
I am a person who believes that being frank is the true essence of any relation.
Let it be any field in life being frank in everything may not yield you any goods ,
but it will definitely give you a self  

assurance that you haven't done nothing wrong.
May be you will be forced face disadvantages by being so &
you may not be able to please everyone by being true to them
but ,
it will never give a chance to regret about anything in any relations.........

From my past experience's I also learned that being frank to everything & everyone may lead you to suffer a lot ......and even ending up at the total opposite side of that person
but I still wishes to be my self.
because I could sacrifice my self for the ones I hold dear to my heart
but I could never sacrifice my principles.
if does .....that would be for another principle with a greater priority...........

I just cant pretend to be something I am not ....
being frank is something which defines the real me,,,,,its what makes me the person I am................................
And I couldn't sacrifice it for anything..................

Life.........The Greatest Teacher of all Time

Posted by The_Truth_Seeker - - 0 comments


The greatest teacher that anyone could have is, life itself......


 
       It teaches us so much , that even years of education may not be able to give . You will come to know the real you when you are tested in life . Experiences could change a person completely..
      Its true & it could affect in both positive and negative ways.....................
Life may teach a soft and innocent person to be Tough and bold ...........
The situations could alter a person view towards life.........one who had known real starvation would never leave another fellow human being to suffer the same in front of his eyes
because the sight would relive the moments he had in his sufferings............

Life decides a person and his personality.......Each and every person is the same when they are born into this world but,,,,,,,,from the moment they are born they are on their way to be different from the rest..............
 life could change or mould a person to the way it wants to be ... often we don't realise but it is life that teaches as how to react or behave in a situation ... That's why may be life is called the greatest teacher ever...........................
