Today's Deccan Herald, Hyderabad quotes Dostoevsky:
"Much unhappiness has come into this world because of things left unsaid."
What I say in this blog is not to eradicate unhappiness- mine or anybody else's. I could not be an activist for I have not understood myself yet; leave alone the world around me. I have no moral high ground to be self righteous and yet I do falter on this slippery ground.
However, I feel the need to share some of the most trivial experiences and observations of mine as Common Man which are at times funny, sad, ironical, grave, crass and even insane and trivial. But nevertheless, each one of the experiences somehow points at my own inadequacies and the need to evolve as a human being.
Yes, I do consider myself to be an important component of my world/ my nation/my family and every failure of any of these units is mine as every success of theirs is equally mine too.
I leave my anecdotes to be interpreted as per the intellect and emotions of my readers.
Starting a blog with toilets as a topic was not terribly elite and talking of it in the context of classical dance festivals was definitely out of the league of high art and intellect.
I wish more pious thoughts could invade my mind and banish the realities form it.
My friend informs me that from 3rd October, 2012 begins the Nirmal Bharat Andolan against open defecation sponsored by Government of India with Vidya Balan as its brand ambassador!
