After Two Cocktails...

After two nice cocktails (courtesy Happy Hours) you definitely find out one thing- Why it is called the happy hours and also about the other things happening around.....

The racist attack on Indians have created a lot of news of late. People coming up with various reasons for the attack. The great debate on if it is that big a deal after all. The even bigger debate is if we should walk on the path of Gandhigiri or Bhaigiri i.e. use non violence or go around stabbing and beating every Australian on site.

Once again I am confused between right and wrong. Killing someone has to be wrong, right? But if its a Kasab that you want to kill is it wrong? Or is violence really just an outburst of your anger and nothing that is really thought about? Is Staying calm in a situation is something that is the wise thing to do?

Please don't get me wrong, I am not in support of people like Kasab. I firmly believe in the fact that we need to act and put an end to all this terrorism and racism. We need to start looking at each others as humans and not as Australians, Indians, Americans. Start working for the greater good.

The father of our nation preached non violence or Ahimsa but does Ahimsa hold the same meaning as it did back then. Ahimsa meant that you should react in a polite manner even to people who hurt you but has been made into a word used just for non violence. I mean is it ok to call a person a dumb f*** in the middle of the road as long as you don't shoot him down. I heard it once that the pen is mightier than the sword. Then does that mean that we can screw people all over and write whatever we want not taking into account there point of view. Will that not be a bit selfish but then again human being is a selfish animal.

Who knows but till then something more for you to think about......

"Many that live deserve death. And some die that deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then be not too eager to deal out death in the name of justice, fearing for your own safety. Even the wise cannot see all ends."

And guess what.... Alcohol is a funny thing, it can start a conflict between your heart and your brain.... :)
