It happened in France and then was repeated in Australia. Everyone put a bad name to the Indians when it happened over there and suddenly India was like this big villian. But to share the gravity of the situation, it is very scary to know that we are all sitting on a spark - a spark that is sufficient to destroy all the bridges that we aim to build.
Even scarier after seeing france and aussie is what if it happens in USA. All of us want to live a peaceful life where ladaai-jhagdaa is just something that we pester our sisters with (or sometimes bros), but a spark at the wrong time may just ignite passions that we dont want to stir. We dont want the police arresting on racial grounds and neither do we want text messages that incite violence. i always look after my neighbour's children in the case of some mishap but all the good deeds at that time are just wiped away. We do have poor neighborhoods and the riots of LA are known. We dont want any of that anytime.
But what we are seeing on TV is scary and real - more real than any of the artificial reality shows. The media has got to me this time, i must say. I sound paranoid. Maybe I am. Maybe i should watch some more disney to cheer up. maybe I should just be more active socially.
All said and done I dont see why peace cannot also be an option. I want a ribbon bumper sticker in green that says PEACE.
