A princess with long golden hair...A wicked stepmother who sends poisoned apples...A witch being pushed into a baking oven by two tiny kids...A mermaid who is reduced to foam because she can't hurt her beloved....A mother who dies to save her son from a certain dark wizard,leaving him a realm of protection and a scar.
Strange stories....my childhood passed as I escaped into these worlds.
A 6 year old girl is pushed into an oven because she, coming from a lower caste dared to cross a road 'owned' by someone from a higher caste.She shrieks and screams as her fleash peels away...nobody comes to her rescue. ..... A certain girl claims that her husband committed suicide,when the whole country knows better...the candles burned and melted..the placards were painted and washed away...'suicide' claimed the woman whom he loved. ..... A 25 year old youth was butchered by his girlfriend and her ex-boyfriend.The duo then burnt the peices,dumped it in a forest..and went out to dinner! .... A 15 year old schoolgirl killed by her father (maybe with consent of her mother too) Her throat was slit open and she was left to bleed to death in her own room....
Stranger facts....unescapable reality.
how long can we wince as we read these news and turn the page?How long can we close our eyes and pretend?How long can we not hear the shouts?Not answer the questions raised? How long can we just shrug....Fact is stranger than fiction?????

Well u just took a step ahead... even u dnt know what reality is,infact no one does.... its all happening out here... What that meets the eye is not the truth..
We can never answer such questions...
We dont feel even whats happening around..
All the chapters in our heart are closed just like the files in a police record...
Yet we all wish for something which can be done.. for us..for ourselves.. for this society...
you know what.....what we see...is what we believe to be real.....there is this inability in all of us....i read sociology.....i have been taught to question.....not by my peers but my conscience....which has sort of given up....and knows....fighting wont do any good.....so it consumes...24/7....and what is being reflected on here....is the sort of thing made ready and served....for my consumption.....so the falseness of reality is apparent....and thus...what appears to be fiction may be more real and contriving....coercive and demanding....i think this will need a follow up.....keep up the good work
questions that badly need to be answered...but alas..no one has them...they r lost in the ashes of time...
Earlier I used to find a horrified fascination in reading about the 'beautiful' deeds out fellow humans(?) are capable of.
But I soon realized that no matter what, demon exist in the form of people. And they will continue their outrageous acts.
We want to have the power to stop these things.. we can't...
Do I have a conclusion? Nope..
Strange things happen in our worlds today that sometimes makes us shudder in fright and leaves us with mouths widely open! And all that can escpae our lips is...'is there any justice in the world?'
Nice post.
There has to be evil to balance the good. Balance. That's Yoga.

immoral occurence never seize to happen but what is to be done about is a question propably asked without an anwser.
Only God can see us thru this unGodly world we live in.
