In The Land of the Blind, A One Eyed Mouse is the King

If you carefully observe the title has a mistake. Instead of a One Eyed Man its a One Eyed Mouse. The actual statement by one Erasmus (of Rotterdam) goes like this "In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king".

Do you see the relevance of the above statement in the current day India? If you don't, I should say you are one of the "Normal Indians". One who is blind, deaf and dumb to everything except himself. Now, then whose the Mouse / Mice leading this land of the Blind ---- Without doubt our great Politicians.

While the blind go on about their daily lives these mice are stealing from us like the mice that steal food from our houses. The difference being these mice are bigger, badder and consume everything. Not just our food, money or clothing but also our life, our soul, our dignity and our very life.

Then there are other one eyed mice who say they want to do good to people and society. These are Intellectuals of the Society. What do these so called intelligent people do.... hold candles and march, start a pink chaddi campaign.. regarding pink chaddi, i will write some other time, but i just remember one thing that i read in some editorial... "According to these so called forward thinking women the dignity is between the legs". Totally Utterly Nonsense.

In the actual time of reckoning, when there is a chance to make a change, what do all these people do..... they just disappear like some freaking ghosts.

Well enough rants for the day. No one can do anything. Anyways just a parting thought.. watch a movie called Shaun of the Dead, its good watch.
