Wake Up People | Thought Puke 1 | Diversions Ahead

With the sequence of incidents, slowly you are made to believe, whenever bigger issue arises, all of a sudden another issue over gender, caste, religion or an issue capable of pulling people's interest have been popped up, keeps people busy and makes the bigger issue negligible to the people's eye.

Full respect to people coming out with their #MeToo, be it happened yesterday or decades ago, sexual harassment has to be punished. At the same time just because an allegation made, without knowing the truth, don't pass comments. Let the people who involved deal their problems through law. MJ Akbar resignation is the first stone put in this long road. As an outsider don't give too much focus on one particular issue alone, because we are surrounded by lot of mess.

We are not living in a country with nil problem. According to United Nations, our country ranks 133/155 in World Happiness Report and 130/188 in Human Development Index, to remind everyone we are living with much bigger problems. If you are okay with the fact that, we are ahead of few countries and consider ourselves in better position, what's better to you is worse. Don't worry, the day isn't too far to be worst. 

When you have better governance, there'll be no room for problems like #MeToo and others what we're facing right now. To have better governance, People, we have to wake up, should know for what we have to stand united and fight for. With the parliament elections are around the corner, expect more diversions. Just don't go behind what put in front of you, divert yourself from diversion.

So, Wake Up People. 

DISCLAIMER : By any chance, if the article made you to feel I have stood for better governance, the answer is NO. Other than, not selling my vote for money, I haven't done a thing for betterment of society. Still, with my little knowledge, I have analysed, got confused over things, understood everyone here is for their own gain and want my understanding to be wrong. When you have lots of thing in mind, you need a place to puke so that you can have a sense of relief and live with little peace. This article is one such puking, opinions are personal. Now, don't ask me where we have to go in search of better governance? Distance always lends enchantment to the view.

Create peace within Yourself

It's for one of the successful startups in India for the post - Social Media Manager. They have asked person with two years experience. That was the time, where I haven't got reply for any of the jobs I applied. In that mindset, I applied for the job without bothering experience as if they would reply for my application.

After few days, I got a screening mail from the company with the tasks list. They asked me to complete the given tasks and reply within two days. I did the same.

Later I got a call from the company for the telephonic interview; everything went well till that question popped up.

"What's your current CTC?”

I told them "I'm a fresher, 2018 MBA graduate, you can check the resume I sent"

"Okay, I'll check and call you later" HR said. Though not a voice expert, I could sense surprise in HR's voice.

Still I was satisfied and consoled myself saying if not for lack of experience, I would have got the job.

One of the tasks given by the company is to write an article about the picture they shared. They gave two pictures - out of which I have to choose one and write article. Of late, I wasn't writing much and when I completed the article, I wanted to share with everyone through my blog.

Here's the article:

“Peace” he said.

“Where you find that?” his colleague asked.

Time is 1 AM. Two colleagues are walking in the road, to have a cup of coffee in between their night shift work.

“I joined the company just two weeks before, I started feeling more occupied and it's just been two weeks” his colleague continued.

“In office, you have to search peace. It depends upon the project you’re put in. But, in your home you can create peace” he said.

“So, you’re married or what?”

“Brother, why should I come to night shift if I’m married?”

Both laughed.

“I’m staying in my apartment, monthly once either my parents visit me or I go to my hometown and visit them” he said.

“Staying Alone? I have read stress is one of the side effects of staying alone.”

“I agree. You’re in the office for 8 hours, maximum 10 hours. Remaining 14-16 hours you have to spend in your home. It lies in your hands to make your place heaven or hell”

“How you find peace in your home?” newly joined colleague continued his questions.

“Inside the house, paint with your favourite colour. At least paint in hall and bedroom. Keep your place decorated. Psychologically, when you see the things you like, your mind relaxes.”

“Tell me more” his colleague asked enthusiastic

“It is all about peace. My favourite colour is White. I had painted my doors, walls inside my hall and bedroom in white colour, where I spend more time. In my hall I have kept reading lamp which is also white in colour. Gardening is my hobby. Near the lamp, I have a table with plantlets in pots which are decorated with glass cubical. Finally, there’s my yellow coloured cushioned chair with tiny pillow. Yellow is a colour of happiness and a pillow to cuddle and first to share my thoughts. At the end of the day, when I reach home, first thing I search for is my chair and a pillow where I relax my mind. Peace has to be created by thyself, in this big world.” he briefed about his peaceful world

“Can I see a picture of your hall?”

“Sure brother.” he said and opened his phone.

He opened a pic and showed it to his peace searching newly joined colleague.
