A...U got some heart-wrenching pictures there keshi. And this post is relevant to all the serious issues that plague our world today. I agree wit most things tat u said here. Most thigns n not all coz somewhere I believe language is a way of communication true, but it;s also something that brings people together. English is given much deserved importance - why? Coz today it's a global language that gets people all over the world together. Similarly if two illiterates here in india need to communicate it's always easier to do so in hindi. It's got nothing to do with pride it's a matter of convenience. Also I like your train of thought on how humanity should be put above everything else. I completely agree on this. The thigns that you see on tv, cozying up on your couch at home make ur guts squirm. There are people falling prey to violence everyday every minute and there's nothing you can do about it but watch it on news and change the channel instinctively to avoid all the blood n gore. But it's only the victims who go through such crap know the pain. U me can do nothing about it but watch. One feels pretty much helpless.Satanic Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17220432914278845337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476566.post-16457109981059003722008-05-02T17:44:00.000+10:302008-05-02T17:44:00.000+10:30yep Finally I get time to share my views and there...yep Finally I get time to share my views and thereby learn and correct myself.<BR/>I give special importance to my mother tongue. I have no liking nor interest in propogating any other language but i appreciate all language as each have their own flavor.<BR/> people always give more preference to English in todays world just because it is the most widely spoken language in the world. It is the business language and to get your point across to a wider range of people U have to adopt it.Now coming to Hindi As we all know India being a place with many languages and different religion There are hardly any common points amongst the people in different parts especially in south and North.I am not being a regionalists oe something but this is a fact. When a national or common langauge was picked up there were many nominees as there are some intresting and amazing langauges but Hindi was picked mainly becuase it was widely accepted. Now You might like Hindi or not but You need to respect it as a national language and what pisses me off is people neglecting it, not even neglecting but even hating it. They still don't accept this because they feel it as a insult to their regional language. When you have all over India, English as primary language, hindi as the secondary and the regional as the third. Things are different In the South and especially TamilNadu. I just say so boldy because its my state.Again this doesnt mean ALL but a high proportion. Its like my hands one day start saying that its more important than my entire body and start agitating. seeing this tomorrow my eyes will say that those are the most important part and not co-operate. At the end of the day a man who could have been so productive turns out to be utter nonsense. And seeing this now we have many states where the language system i said is not followed. I mean if English is used through out the world doesn't mean that it is the best langauge around. so my point is if I have willfully accepted my self as a tenant in an society I have to follow the rules of the society unless the rules are really stupid and if they are I need to make them realise and justify why they are stupid and try to get the right rules in place.Its like my captain may not be the best player in the Team but he deserves some special place in the Team.<BR/><BR/>Again this thing(skin color) I feel is something ridiculous. I almost agree with wotever you say. Again i might like a particular color that doesnt make that color superior. Or just becuase more people like it it doesnt become superior.<BR/><BR/>religion i guess is the Thing a that drives nations crazy.I always feel the people who created religions did so to make Life better during their point of time. Eventually with time their always was some kind of modification needed which wasnt properly done.And all these great people who created this religion never took into consideration that there could be some other better way or alternate way and even if they thought they never mentioned it just because. <BR/>I always feel everyone knows everything its just few people really think about all the outcomes before they do and actually dont do and few people make the wrong choice and do. DO here refers to being racist or labelling racist,draw borders and never give up on hatred.No body likes pain but instead of adjusting and coming in par with everyone Few people comfort themselves or their kind by hurting others.<BR/><BR/>I guess just a rush of emtions. tommorow is gonna be the same old day.same bickering same brawling same fight and same cry.becuase no insane person is gonna read this and the one who is gonna read is already sane.badshah khanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17532810687713050621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8476566.post-71828050046119243552008-05-02T17:01:00.000+10:302008-05-02T17:01:00.000+10:30yep Aneri I go there all the time. tnxx hun MWAH! ...yep Aneri I go there all the time. tnxx hun MWAH!
