Gutless Creatures
Something that really irritates me is when people start taking things for granted. They accept that what's happening is wrong yet don't have any inclination to raise their voice against it.
Of course, the reasons might be different, the perceptions might be different-but if at the age of 23 and with the backing of many you don't have the guts to stand up and fight for your right, in my opinion it speaks volumes about your self respect or rather the lack of it...
On the other side we have people who are ready to speak up for anything and everything that is not happening in the right manner. In Mumbaiyya parlance, they suffer from 'Sulemani Keeda' ... a derogatory term but one which highlights the image people who are ready to speak up actually invite from the rest..
Add to this the tendency to link every effort to a favourable outcome and you know that philantrophy is a word that should be limited to dictionaries alone....the mentality of 'yaar, isme mujhe kya faayda hoga' is disgusting to say the least. Agreed that none of us are here to become martyr's but then there is something called conscience and inner satisfaction...
Looks like people who think differently from the mob mentality belong to another planet...bahhh
