the Real the Illusion The Periyar

The Kedarnath 2013 incident was real and so was the Mumbai 2005 heavy rain. They were just news and few seconds video clips for me. The Chennai 2015 floods were not as bad as other incidents. Just like everyone here, I too tried to help the affected. There could be Kedarnath 2016 or Mumbai 2017 but I guess I’ll remain not bother about it much even if it happens.

Do you remember the Tamil Nadu election 2016? My colleagues, friends, neighbours and people I saw in public places were all talking about change. If you count these people and compare it with real votes, the result is ridiculous, the opposite of what people talked. The illusions!

The world is full of illusions that we see as real and the reals that we see as illusions. Once upon a time, the earth was flat! Whether something is real or illusion, if is not good for the society it has to be eradicated. The change in people's mind is a real challenge. You need the time, money, support people, circumstances... to make even a little change.

I wonder how challenging it is to fight against the thousands of year old systems like religion and caste which are made into the fundamental values of our lives and making positive changes in the society. True leader.

Stop & Listen

Source: Email forward A man sat at a metro station in Washington DC and started to play the violin; it was a cold January morning. He played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, since it was rush hour, it was calculated that thousand of people went through the station, most of them on their way to work. Three minutes went by and a middle aged man noticed there was musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule. A minute later, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a woman threw the money in the till and without stopping continued to walk. A few minutes later, someone leaned against the wall to listen to him, but the man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work. The one who paid the most attention was a 3 year old boy. His mother tagged him along, hurried but the kid stopped to look at the violinist. Finally the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk tur...
