SUSTAINABLE INEQUALITY: WHAT SAY DEAR MR. SAINATH?

I hate The Hindu! I mean, the news paper. And my friends very well know it. But today I was filled with admiration for one of their great collumnists., P Sainath. Yes, I'm getting extremely impulsive these day's. That's exactly why I'm writing this post post when I really should be practicing on my brand new six strings. And perhapse that's exactly why I got so charged up with the interview of P Sainath on NDTV that while logging into blogger I started typing psainath instead of my id. After a long time some one could actually sensitize me about the glaring inequality in our society today. You can find out more about this great dude on these links:

To tell you the truth I wasn't sensitized about inequalities and as I do believe that, inequality is at the core of our society, or any society for that matter. In fact, this once I was so dam pissed at the disastrous interpretations of equality made by most politicians, so enraged by societies inherent way of painting everyone in the same color, that I wanted to get a tattoo at the back of my neck that read, "I!=U". So, I love the inequalities in a society. They are the driver of the society. It is this gradient that makes society flow like the Ganges, metamorphosize(if there's verb like that) and not stagnate like a dead lake. But hearing from the ediot box what Mr Sainath had to say, brought an amazing thought to my mind.. I went euraka! This inequality that I romantisize, as beautiful as it well and truly is, needs to be within limits, for the sake of its own sustainability. That's when I asked myself, am I the first one to coin the term, "Sustainable Inequality"??

Now what on earth is that? I feel its best to explain with an example. I feel destiny is nothing but some mathematics.(Dunno where did that come from) Look, I feel, and we all know, that right now, and for a very long time in our history, at the receiving end of this great inequality has been our good ol' farmer. This cycle is about to change, or shall say the plunging happiness quotient of the farmer is close to getting bottomed out. Right now the world is looking at a very real scare of going without food. Focus in the next few decades will gradually shift to farms, and food production. the equation or rather the 'inequation', is going to change. There are two ways this'll happen. Either we get some sense into our heads, and bring some real focus to the farm sector, or we be the happy go lucky type society.. waiting for the farmer to catch his sickle, leave the harvest and come after us slick urbane types. The former, is what I call 'sustainable inequality'. All it says is, don't strech inequalities to a level where, simply put, it just snaps. I feel, in a broad sense, the society is also a corporation, that to a monopoly. You need to give the remuneration one deserves, cos attrition from the corporation called 'society', leads to birth of the gangsta, the rioter, the terrorist. One way or another the inequity will prevail.

I wish Mr. Sainath would actually come across this post and have the time to comment on this.

EVERY BEAUTIFUL GIRL DESERVES AN EYE
That's what i learn't when i screwed up the tuning of my guitar. Yes! I finally bought myself a guitar! And i post this pic of mine, thanks to my buddy Google's advice. Now he says posting pics of me playin the guitar'll be an incentive for me to make sure i learn it and not just keep it like a trophy in my room. And yes, i do plan to join Noida School of Rock next week. Its funny actually how, Gokul(google) n i, both had guitarist roommates through college, guitars, amps n stuff all over my room, which doubled up as a jampad, n we never learn't to play. Perhapse attracted to more creative stuff ;). But now, with life between work and home proving to be a drag, i had to find a way to let my impulses out. How i wish i had learn't to play back at college. But no worries, i'll most probably be back to school next week. NSR seems to be the best in Noida. N where did i buy my guitar from? The best n perhapse the only watering hole for music around Noida, Onstage. What a mind blowing collection of guitars! I leave you a few pics of 'em..

MAMMA 'N' PAPA LIED TO US!

Ya! Remember all those times at school when you never used to study? Parents used to go on ranting.. 'work hard now! One should work hard as a student, So u can enjoy all life long later.' Bull. When a friend of mine recently asked me if Im enjoying in Delhi.. I gave him a lecture.. You do enjoy somewhat, but nothing like student days.. It doesn't matter where you are.. One can truly enjoy only as a student..1s u start work.. Aah.. Its all run off the mill. So there you go all kiddos in school.. Don't buy that crap about hard working students. Go out n enjoy! Squeeze every bit outta this time you got. As another friend of mine wrote in his facebook profile a while ago, 'there's nothing like college life. When else do your parents shell out thousands of rs. Jus for you to go to a strange place and get drunk every night!' Of course, after accusing parents of lying.. You've gotta give them the due credit. Right?
