I've been thinking about this one for a very long time. Our lives are not perfect and they cant be. There will always be problems and we will have to muster the strength to face them.
But even if we are losing the battle or cant find the strength there is always something we can find solace in. Something that will always bring us comfort. Now this source of solace is what seems to bother me cause I cant find mine...
Can anything bring you that kind of comfort? Can it be food/work/friends/......
I am looking for something/one to fall back on. Something/one that will pull me back up. Something/one that's always there.
Or is it a stupid idea to depend on this something/one so much? Will over dependence just ruin my own capacity to handle situations?
Or am I just suppose to find solace in myself...

Highs and Lows
Low: Small time chain snatcher practically killed by a mob as the police watched on.
High: 24 yr old Abha karate chops two men eve teasing her.
Low: 6 day old baby snatched by Panchayat as the parents belonged to the same clan.
High: DMRC enters the carbon credit market
Low: A teacher in Delhi forcing her students into prostitution.
High/Low: The left opposition and how the government still survives.
I 've always been very patriotic. I love my country but the pathetic conditions around just make me sick to the stomach.
So many campaigns begin and try to make a difference and yet we reach back to square one. What is it that makes us Indians such a stubborn race, why do we fail to see the change that is beckoning us.
I can list our achievements too but the thing is that one look at our society and all the development can be thrown out of the window.
Why is it that our country is still so dirty, that foetuses are still murdered and that red lights still don't work...
As cliched as it may sound I want to make a difference, to make India a better place. Maybe it is the small things that we should start with...
But will it ever work or will I just become one of those cynical adults who complain and do nothing about anything...
