The Joy of a young Writer

The Joy of a young Writer

The young boys and girls enjoy without bothering much about their future life; in a similar way, the young writers also enjoy the same without considering much about the contents in their writing. The content of such a young writer is less consider by the people. She/he is joyful as their write-ups are published in the newspaper or other media. They are less concern about the content since people are less concern about their writings. But once he/she becomes a veteran writer or old, many people eyes are on them.

For such an old or veteran writer, even a single word of their writing is becoming meaningful and dangerous. For a young writer the grammatical mistakes, the content, reference, originality, clarity, intelligibility etc are less concern thus giving them maximum freedom of ex-pression. Writing is an art of practice and one should put into practice in writing when she/he is young. When some one is young, it is the best time to practice expressing through writing. When we are young, who cares if we make mistake in our writing. Who care if we are unable to express clearly.

Our responsibility increases as we grow older thus limiting ourselves to express our thought more freely. Once we become mature or a leader, we are responsible of whatever we say or write, which limits our freedom of ex-pression or writing thus the young writers are the most joyful writers

My experience going by Indian Railway (Part II)

(You may become another sales man in the market if you are not specialise properly in your course)

In 2001 while I was going back from Delhi to Pune, once again I was alone. I took out some newspaper and magazine to read…this time I was in 2^nd Class (Sleeper) with confirmed ticket. In the same compartment, there were also some guys seem going back to Pune after the winter vacation. While I was just reading the magazine, a guy who is sitting near to me started to talk with me. He looks very confident and acting over smart because he is doing his MBA from a prestigious institute like IIM, Pune. I like his confidence but I don’t like him acting over smart/show off. MBA: “Where are you from?”Me: I am basically from ManipurMBA: Is that from Assam?

Me: Yes, Manipur is the capital of Assam 

MBA: Where are you going?Me: I am going to PuneMe: What about you?MBA: I am also going to PuneMBA: What do you do in Pune?Me: I am a student from Pune UniversityMe: What about you?MBA: I am doing my MBA from IIMSMe: That is great, so you are going to earn a good sum after finishing MBA.MBA: ThanksMe: Well, in which branch are you doing specialization?MBA: I am doing my specialization in MarketingMe: Oh I see that is very goodMe: But now there are too many MBAs and you need to specialize properly otherwise you will become another sales man in the market.MBA: (He was shocked when I said that)Me: We may be doing Engineering, Doctor, MBA or any course; we need to have sound knowledge and specialized properly, otherwise there is no point of doing for the sake of doing.MBA: (He is little nervous after I told him)MBA: Yes, there are too many MBAs and some are getting very low payment.Me: Nice talking to you Note: If he would have not acting over smart, I would have told him that Manipur is a separate state and the capital of Manipur is Imphal. However since he is acting smart even though he does not know the names of all the states in India, I told him that Manipur is the capital of Assam. (He just believe me and I was shocked in my heart) I would have no told him that he may become another sales man in the market if he was not acting over smart.

My experience going by Indian Railway (Part I)

It was in 2001 December, I went inside the general compartment from Pune railway station to Delhi-Nizamuddin. I got a seat/berth on the left side facing with another man who is also going to Delhi. As I was alone, I feel bore. I took out the newspapers and read but finished reading Times, Express and Maharastra Herald after 2-3 hours. I felt bore but I have to be with those stinky and dirty people around me.(Unplanned trip, poor guy has to suffer)

 When I reached Bhopal, the train stopped for 30 minutes. There one lady and 3 guys in army dress came inside in my compartment. A tall guy in army dress told me, “I am army officer and give me your seat” he said in Hindi. Another person who is traveling with him also said, “He is army officer, give him the seat” I thought if he is an army officer, he will no travel in general compartment (2^nd class). Then I said, “If you are an army officer, show me your identity card and I will give my seat, I told him in English” It seems he does not know English properly.He did not say anything and went to sit in the corner with some other passengers.After 3 hours boarding from Bhopal, he and one of his friends got down from the train.I felt happier as I reach nearer to DelhiThere was another army and his wife going to Jammu and Kashmir.When the train reached Nizamuddin, I asked him, “What did you said to me in Bhopal? I have told my friends to bring car so that we go for sightseeing in Delhi and they are bringing car for you”Then I pulled his hand and called him to come down.His wife asked me, “What happen?” I told her, “Asked him what did he said to me in Bhopal?”Then I pulled him again his hands but she began to cryI was just trying to threaten him because he was boasting that he is an armySince he was afraid to come down from the train And his wife was crying and begging me to forgiveI did not do anything to himBut I told him not to do again and boast infront of the civilians.And if he continues to do again, he may no come back from J K  

100 times our live is more precious

Justice and equal treatment is desirable by every one. But it is worth to seek the justice and equal treatment from those nonsense people? Many times I also thought we need justice and equal treatment from other people. But in a practical life I find this a dream to get justice and equal treatment. One of the preachers from Northeast asked, “Do you pay ST (Skin tax) in addition to our IT (Income Tax)? Firstly I could not understand much, what is this ST? He said we have to pay ST everytime we go out by Autorickshaw or go to any shopping except in fixed price showroom. You have to pay ST if your skin color is very white or very black; looking different from the indigenous people.

This is a small background how one of my cousin brother was recently beaten up brutally by five guys in Delhi. He is still in the hospital (ICU). He is now groaning and fighting to live in the hospital.

The simple reason how he was beaten up by five guys was that he told them not to call him Bahadur (Nepali). Because he does not belong to Nepali nation but he is Naga. People from northeast looks like the Nepali and due to this reason, many people call the Northeast people, Nepali or Bahadur. Those guys were living in the same colony and from time to time they used to call him Bahadur and harassed him. On that fateful day, while he was going to get some utensils from nearby a house, they called him and said, “Hey Bahadur where are you going?” On that day, he shouted at them for harassing him frequently. Suddenly, another person standing nearby took a brick and pounded him on his head and he was unconcious. His two teeth were gone. His eyes were bruised badly. One of his eyes sight is lightly to loss. His skull is broken. He did not talked to anybody for three days and still in Intensive Care Units.

Those guys were arrested by the Police but can we expect any justice and equal treatment? The most important thing is that after beaten up somebody badly and giving justice or equal treatment or taking revenge is not worth. Just think! If some body kill one your siblings or parents, will you be happy to kill those two culprits? Definitely not! One of our loved ones is more precious and lovable than 2-3 other people. What will we get in taking revenge after one of our loved is killed or brutally beaten up?

In conclusion, I would like to request everyone to control ourselves from squabbling or fighting with any nonsense people around us. Because it is not worth to fight or quarrel with them even if we are right legally, for our live is 100 times more precious than those nonsense people. Legally, the mistake was with those guys, but practically the mistake was also with my cousin brother for not controlling himself from those nonsense, blood thirsty and restless people; everytime waiting the chances to harass and kill some one.

I have learnt a good lesson that I should not quarrel with any nonsense people even though I am legally right to fight back or seek justice. This is a new lesson for me to practise in real life if I want to be in the city.
