Imbalanced Compromise



Compromise; This word has been a cliché in our daily life. Though it’s dictionary meaning is “To arrive at a settlement by making concessions”, it’s corrupted from its original meaning.
It’s very rare where we find both the sides are getting benefited by leaving some ground for other. According to me Compromise is something between two parties in order to set some curves straight by curbing one party’s interest i.e. the equation is not arithmetic like  1 + 1 = 2 rather, I believe, it’s binary  0 + 1 = 1 .

We found its application in every sphere of life or in each step of life. From leaving some standing-space in bus or train for a co-passenger, accommodating one’s personal hrs for few more work-files requested (late night) by boss, watching ‘SAAS-BAHU’ leaving high-voltage India-Pakistan match for maintaining the “status quo” in home, to holding back one’s desires/likes/feeling to keep happy or to save other’s trivial interest. So, from morning to night, we are very habituated with this term. Does it always pay ? Does it really make other realize that his comport zone has come at the expense of someone else’s.

It’s not so easy to bracket  Compromise either as good or bad rather it’s a relative term. If the  purpose is noble the Compromise is good otherwise is bad. Let’s take three examples.
On a fine Sunday morning you plan for a short trip to nearby place and you arrange accordingly but on the same day you hear from your mom that your mother want you to take her to the doctor. Will you curtail  the trip for sake of your  mother interest ?
On a public holiday, you plan to watch a movie with your wife but your wife want you to take her to your mother-in-law ? Will you prefer to give priority to your wife’s desire ?
Being a pragmatic, most of use lie in many occasion but then comes horrible Compromises. You grow an impression that there is no harm (of a habitual lie of yourself) at all and you use this means even for a inconsequential cause. Does this Compromise with truth is justified ?

The answer of the 1st situation is a big YES since it’s undoubtedly for a real cause where you don’t have any other choice. But the answer for the 3rd situation is a strictly NO unless there is no other alternative or unless it’s noble cause. The 2nd scenario is very familiar to us and the answer is very dubious.  We speculate what to do. If you are a peace loving  man, you will Compromise with your wife but many people may not. But if it happens frequently and Compromise grows from small to bigger occasion and consequently it may put a stain on the relationship.
Even, we find one sided compromise

So Compromise is good up to certain level or when it calls for righteous ground but it’s detrimental or unproductive when your heart doesn’t  support you.

Foster Your Imagination Power; Go as you like



Prologue 

Every people is poised to become a writer. It's only he who let his imagination power to flow and nurture it with great care become a potential writer. Every one of us has a story to tell in his life. So let's just give a try and put as many lines as you can to continue this story which I have started.


Rule: There is one and only rule in this story writing that DON'T DRAW A CONCLUSION OR CLOSURE TO THE STORY  AND LEAVE THE STORY WITH A CONJUNCTION LIKE: 'AND', 'BUT', 'THEN' etc..

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Here goes the first few lines from Haridas:

It was Friday night around 10:10 PM. I was returning home on the last Train from Rupsanipur .
As it was a chilled winter night the whole train was almost empty. I took an empty compartment and sat beside the window. Though it was very cold night I pulled up the shutter of the window and let the cold wind to flow over my face. I was feeling much better after such a long and hectic day and ……….

23rd January gets less importance than Frienship day, 1st January or any other speacial day.

Are we really civilized, are our social values evaporating from our life day-by-day, are our national heroes or idols loosing value? May be we are educated or hold few degrees but our education does not capable enough to enlighten us or it’s not the true education which can raise the inner divinity existing within us from our birth.

How many of us remember the 23rd January? The day is on the verge of ending, but I haven’t got a single SMS on my mobile. Had it been a Friendship day or 1st January or 15th February, my mobile would have been inundated with SMS(s). How can the 23rd January be less important than a Friendship or Lovers day or any other special day? 

 
With technology or science, we are not really progressing rather we are advancing step by step towards the point of no return.

23rd January should be declared as National Holiday


If 2nd October is a National holiday, why not 23rd January? Why such discrimination? Why our history book has only a half-page passage on Netaji where as a one-and-half page passage on Mahatma Gandhi? Netaji and Gandhiji both were equally responsible to usher in the freedom in our country though any comparison is futile between these two freedom fighter.  
I guess it’s our political dynasty that has drawn this line of discrimination. But, I wonder, why Nataji’s own formation Forward Block is mum on this issue. But I believe better late than never. So the onus should be on Aam Admi of India.

Strategic overhaul in education system..


Enough is enough. Stop experimenting with our education system and stop treating us as the subject of scientific experiment.
Why our country, especially Westbengal is lagging in educational sector? Why can’t we put a need based educational system in place? Do we really need history, geography in class IX or X ? Why not we ramify the stream from class IX or X?
In the age of globalization, we talk about GDP, market economy etc. Are we really progressing or it’s just a semblance of progress? I guess there is segregated boom in our country. The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer? We are fighting for a seat in UNSC but I think we are not worthy of it? We need a real overhaul in our system. But 1st we need a strategic revamp in our education system to buttress our backbone. English should be our 1st language, Hindi 2nd and the regional language will figure 3rd place in the language group.

Sankrail : Going to have the status of Municipality area.


Sankrail is going to be a Municipality area soon. Will it help? I don’t think so. What we need is a infrastructural growth or economic growth. There are plenty of examples where municipality is just the name or status without having the facilities for being a municipality area. Why do people bother external beautification instead of inner beauty ?

My 1st Blog


Writing my 1st blog. But thinking what’s the need of writing blog in the age of Facebook or other social websites..I have forgot to write a letter where it needs lot of thinking , time and feelings. Now-a-days we are bothered about the ‘scrap count’ or the no of ‘likes’ or ‘tags’ for one picture or status. Gradually we are becoming hypocritical; we are bothered about others' take about our feeling without being concerned about our inner-self; I am no exception. So, I am trying to pull me up from this impasse.
