Have u heard this joke??
presidents of 3 countries - India ,China and U.S. chatting.
Mr.china-we make the best fountain pens in the world.entire world uses our pens.what do u do?
Mr.U.S.-you asking what we do??accepted that u make the best pens,but its us who make it's nib and give it the finishing touch.
(now both look at Mr.India.curious abt wat he has to say)
Mr.India-we print on the pens-'MADE IN INDIA'.
Sunita Williams was born and brought up in U.S. and considers Needham, Massachusetts to be her hometown.but for us ,some strings of her paternal connections wit our land and her kitty that contains a copy of bhagavad gita ,a small figurine of lord ganesha and samosas are enough to boast around the world and shout from the roof top tat she is the make of this country.and thats why her safety matters.only hers.and then we do havana and yagyas(same old faltugiri,because we are not capable of doing anything else.and hell,we are doing it for a SCIENCE PERSON?? paradox,isn't it??scientist and havan-the match couldn't be more suitable.)
Sunita is a brave lady.supremely talented,hardworking and overall a very respectable personality.wishing her a safe comeback is a sign of our humane side.but our job ends there.but here
we should not forget that she is just a human being.not god.appreciate her for what she has done.pray for her safety but don't forget others.don't show such selfishness at least in prayers.otherwise don't pray.there is no need to create such big dramas for those rusty news channels.they can go to any extent to raise their trp ratings..
we need to shed this tendency of relating anything and everything that is great to us in all possible ways..don't waste energy in this.channelize it properly.gear up!work hard and become someone of good use to this country.don't just sit and appreciate those who are already successful.derive inspiration from them and put yourself to some work.
closing line-i have heard a person say, " Gautama Buddha became great because he received the same initial religious lessons like all Hindus.his father was Hindu by religion..our Hindu religion is great and he is what he is because of us". oh my god!!!..very original 'theory of relativity', what else??
you say it all and u say it so well.
