The WATER'GATE' Scandal

The Richard Nixon story, 

It didn't just blow out of nowhere. It was the kind of stuff one would imagine oops! no one could imagine would or could happen. IN USA; just when it was about to celebrate it's bicentenary a president resigned while in office. What does that say. Some nay sayer might add on " hey what does this tell you about the fact that no other country in the world faced such a trauma" or " hey point out any country who's politics is corrupt like that". 
So easy. It doesn't feel like anyone knows the context or reference they might be quoting when there is nobody hitherto to question the credibility and raise questions about the implication of that statement.

Taking the liberty to dig deeper into the problem, one without any doubt will find answers that might change the way they respond forever. Is there anyone who doesn't know the prevalent corruption that is to be presumed in any contemporary government or in the past? I seriously doubt that. Assuming a corruption free world is the person living in dystopic fantasy You gotta be 'ballsy' to implore the truth and present in its truest form. That's what journalism stood for. I won't comment on the haphazard ways the journalism has destroyed its credibility . Not to talk about the indelible mark it has left on the entire honest fraternity and the reason for which it stood for once.

I wouldn't say David Frost's interview was the sole reason journos slap their back every time they hunt a big fish nowadays. But that iconic interview will always be held a level higher than any journalistic activity. Something that no jury, no prosecutor, no trial could have achieved. A confession . Yes a confession of the 'sins' committed by a person who is called the leader of the free world. And yes he is in its truest sense. I daresay he is akin to Hitler of the WW-2 Europe. The kind of power one man has can destroy the entire world at his whim and wishes. And when the public who elected him to represent them, comes out as a crook is a blow to the faith of the people. The best anomaly would be 'the wife cheating on the husband in India'. I take this as example because normally a husband is expected to leer and cheat on other women, not that I completely go with this stereotype image..I am against it. But for the sake of our polite argument that one might raise. And public is like a husband who might show different colors and shades.They have a mutual trust and when that breaks ,,betrayal and mistrust follows.

How can people judge a man again and decide to elect him without having a pinch of skepticism in future."Do I really want to vote for the corrupt"? Is the million dollar question that has seldom been answered. 

If the presidency can fall based on public opinion, that country has a bright and prosperous future...I guarantee.

Latest Read : Upside of Irrationality

Our brain has wonderful way by which it constantly evolves along the way devising ways to leave us astray. At times it tries teaching something to us. We all usually busy in our world, decide against its meaningful advices and encroach upon 'decisions' we deem fit. What we never discover is the source of errors in judgement. Subconscious knows all and decides to inform at appropriate timing what we seek to accomplish. But gut and intuition (which at time prove to be wrong) come in between claiming everything. If we win, we call it glory, if not,  it is termed as a mistake. But  fellows. It is not our decisions over which we so easily lay claim upon that make us win. On the other hand it is the subconscious. While executing pre -ecided actions we choose to listen (best thing to do!)  all that our subconscious has clammed up in the past. That usually makes us execute our plans with a promise of success or at least save as from a nasty debacle. Everyday while we are b...

Kissing Is a 'Goood' Idea

Why Kissing is such a Good idea? A unique concept of humans, we all know kissing feels good. There are good kisses and bad kisses. It makes your heart giddy with desire and gives butterflies in your stomach. What’s really in a kiss? Its super fascinating and what bonds people together and if you’re a bad kisser, well makes them run away. There’s an entire branch of science called philematology that’s devoted to kissing. Let’s see how laying one on your partner has major health benefits. Research shows, that it might actually have long-term benefits on mental and physical health. During a lip-lock the brain releases dopamine responsible of feelings of desire thus acting as an instant stimulator.

The feel-good factor of kissing is not only physical but also psychological. Tension relief, that’s what it brings. Sensuality and sensual touch have ...

What I did not Do

Standing near a boiled egg/omelet thela on the outskirts of a vegetarian neighborhood with my chachu. Saw something that irked me. And like all that things that bother me,after i left, i forgot about it.  The thela owner apart from making delicious omelettes and serving the appetites of pseudo non-vegetarians was committing a crime. A crime that is wide spread and happens at every 'gali-koocha' of our neighborhood.  Child Labor. 2 kids around the age of 10-12, employed as helpers to the thela owner. Amazing thing is, the police in their PCR van stops in front of it, and doesn't take a second look at the violation of law taking in presence of public. They came, they ate and went away. I came, i ate and i went away. I made a video recording from my cell phone that presents an evidence of the reality. Should i do something about it? Or should i be a silent cum mute spectator. I am choosing the latter. why? It is convenient. I have my own job to do. With my daily problems to...
