PISS...



Hi, dear reader, before you form an opinion about this post reading just its title, which I am sure few of you would already have, the moment you read the caption, I would like to ask you a few questions. I asked myself before writing this post. WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN
1. No one listens to you?
2. Even fewer people understand you?
3. There are a lot of things that bug your mind and yet you find yourself so very helpless to do anything about it?
4. The level of irritated frustration rises so high that you can’t concentrate on anything else...
All these questions when I asked myself I got only 1 answer which is I write about those at my blog. Sometimes it is well accepted, sometimes it may not, at other times it isn’t even responded to and again never ever discussed!! but that doesn't stop me from writing what I feel should be written out and also wont stop me coz I know if I don’t, I wont be at peace.

This is one of the reasons why I decided to write about the title you just read... Thank you for your patience dear reader I would now raise the curtains on what exactly drove me to write about PISS and don’t be shocked from the beginning, I guarantee you, there are plenty of those in the subsequent follow through all over this post!!
Since India or Indians on behalf of the country decided to stand up against corruption, there have been many instances which constantly remind me of PISS... I bet you know the dictionary meaning of the word...but trust me, this is different, my own acronym for a long sentence....
Let go off all your fears and inhibitions reader, for I now welcome you to the Pathetic Indian Societal Scenario (which is what I will mean henceforth when I mention PISS)

PISS is a post springing up from pain,frustration,anger,helplessness and all things negative that can ever enter your brain as humans, things that had long been suppressed but cant be held within any longer!! The reason?? A book THE WHITE TIGER by Arvind Adiga that won the booker prize for 2008!! Well basically it is a satire a cold hearted relentless and captivating satire on India!! As the protagonist (who z a poverty ridden-tortured kid-turned driver read a slave to his master-turned murderer-turned entrepreneur and finally a very successful businessman) in the book calls himself a person made from half baked clay, and as he describes in his letters to the Chinese premier that there are two sides to INDIA the bright side as the whole world sees it and a dark side that we Indians better know than anyone else.. I consider myself lucky for reading that book pretty much impulsively though... I say so coz I didn’t have any idea what the book was all about until I started reading it… I only decided to buy it coz it won the booker prize!! But trust me when I say once I started reading the book I just couldn’t put it down to read at a later time… and as for the consequences of the awakening (let me call it awakening) into the bitter realities portrayed about the way of life of a poverty stricken Indian or more so a less fortunate Indian I found myself and my thoughts at a dead end, not finding a suitable way to vent out anywhere else.. This post is only a small attempt for my satisfaction and recovering my peace of mind. This post that I am writing, when this is over, I will be satisfied and things won’t disturb me anymore for I will finally know what I ought to do!! Yet again if I write all those things, I would be getting nowhere, but boring you out of your minds, I therefore decided to express a few selective yet debatable topics that I failed miserably to reason why!!

1. Corruption and India's Fight against it... (Seems almost hypothetical to me because in a mass protest all is good and fine but when it comes down to individual interests we people generally compromise in parting with a few bucks to get our things done and not even once do we think about the national interests)
2.The safekeeping or so to say the hospitality shown to merciless terrorists in India by our govt on the pretext of basic human rights...(What the fuck!! were they humans, when they went around killing innocent citizens, What about the people that died as such?? weren’t they humans?? The death sentence to Kasab does very little for the pain in the hearts of the family members of the people his group killed so ruthlessly)
3. The attitude of people as a whole (I mean the society of ours) towards such topics.
4. The ignorance or lack of interest and awareness!!
5. The sorry state of buses and trains or for that matter surroundings roads and public property in India, which is why I say In here.. compromise seems to be a way of life!!

Coming to more sensitive topics or you can call taboo topics if you so wish...
Newspapers being so full of news of in short to say extreme physical abuse of females ranging from kids, teenagers to foreign tourists and the hype and politics associated with it(makes women empowerment and boasts of gender equality a laughing stock or at least decoratively limited to pen and paper)
Doesn't reading this much and thinking about it already make you angry??I bet yes it does as it made me angry that’s why I decided to write it off here at the blog!! No explanations to anyone or about anything, Nothing...

     I completely am aware that as for my age, I am too small to take action, I mean yes, 24 years, without a job, still struggling and fighting against all odds to chase my dreams, doesn’t sound too good a qualification for speaking among the older generation, say with family and neighborhood, thanks to the society for that and the way we Indians are brought up; Does it??But I don’t care, I have decided, out of the topics I just mentioned, most are a national threat and major issues to be talked about for now and anything I would be doing about, but the local issues, that which I know I can fight against, I will for sure, because I might be starting this alone in the first place, but someday some of us will meet who understand me and share my thinking and feelings and are of the same weird and crazy mentality as me... then I wont be alone, We would be a group, a team, fighting commonly for a cause!! There is this society again that we live in, it will criticize, it almost always does, less appreciation and encouragement and more obstacles and cynicism with backstabbing, cruel satires, well such people don’t have other things to do, they just don’t realize something until they experience that personally.. But who cares I don’t; What would be the worst case scenario, that my image, my good name as an obedient, abiding decent and well mannered guy would go down the drains and I would be labeled as arrogant, disobedient, unsocial err antisocial, ill mannered... well the adjectives can keep on growing in numbers and I wont stop Writing or Fighting back.. It’s better to stand up and fight than accept the baseless unnecessary things that just don’t make any sense!!!
Would You Dare to be different??
Would You Dare take a chance??
Would You Care like hell to what others say??
And dare to find out facts for yourself??
Would You Do something, anything and everything it takes to change the PISS!! WOULD YOU???
