The Race, The Caste, The Creed, THE BULLSHEEEET !!!!

This is quite long….

Are all people made up of the same physical substances ?? (Obviously in different proportions) or is there something called Pure Blood, Aryan Race, etc. ?? Are some people destined to be treated like trash and others as the elite in society ?? I would like to say at the outset these are my personal observations which I will mention. If anyone feels offended, (Thoppiya hari nung Daaganing !!) there’s nothing personal here. This is my venture into understanding society.

In today’s society we would like to imagine that the caste system is gone for good. I would say its still there, be it explicit, implicit or in fragments. It sure drives people in making some of their decisions. Of course it is very hard to finger print large communities but general feeling is it is existent. If I have read right, it is according to the services that were provided to the ancient Kings that the system was built upon. Since then people are being discriminated based on that.

Funny thing is I’ve noticed majority of the High caste people (Govigama or Goigama) have some quality in them. And of course the Superior Feeling. (Oh brother, I hate to separate people and sling mud, take this as just mentioning facts) They are normally well behaved and do not part company with people whom they feel are inferior. The rest, well there are certainly roudy elements and surely surely unacceptably insolent behaving people among them. Certain things they do deserve to be looked down upon. I say again, I cannot and will not fingerprint.

Be it School, University, Office, the difference is evident. I have to say I haven’t been a victim of it up to now. But I’ve seen it Happening. I’m not blaming it but it just doesn’t feel right. My belief is a person should be treated for who he / she is, for their personality, the qualities they have and not how much money they have or are they of the good breed. I cannot refrain from mentioning that the so called lower class people are the ones who get caught for all the mischief and unlawful deeds 70% of the time. (Not that the elite aren’t into this type of activities)

People who have money, mostly of the time get good education and there’s always the chance of their children, due to good living conditions become good citizens. On the other hand for the poor and oppressed, the wheel turns in the opposite direction. Is there a notion such as, people should always associate elite wealthy people and live amongst them, or should aim to do so? Palayang bung yanda !! (I don’t think so). “You should be able to speak to the poor man’s heart as well move with kings and not lose the common touch” is what I think should be the case.

I have seen high caste people, rich people (rich only in wealth and not in Human Qualities) treating their servants like trash. Excuse given being, “They should be treated that way or else they won’t work” Agreed to some extent. Firmness should be there. However not along with elements of superiority complexes and looking down on the person just because he / she came begging to you for some work and earn money. Some of these elite became so because at some point of time, their ancestors had a bit of extra money and won favor with the rest of the elite. I would say if a person has achieved excellence out of his / her own sweat and blood that person should be decorated and honored. Not just because their ancestors were the wealthy prominent people in society.

Religious or Racial discrimination may be not as frequent as the caste system in this country. But we hear stories from here and there of such incidents. God only knows how many cases go unreported. Once again, to halt contact or look down basing on Race or Religion would be unacceptable. However much we say no, these hatreds or complex feelings drives people in every phase of life.

In conclusion I’d like to say in no means I have hatred towards people of any Caste Race or Religion. It’s just that the injustice prevailing won’t let me rest and I feel I might be a victim of it one fine day. I’m not concerned about the personal loss but it’s the general feeling that disturbs me.

Finally Dogfight decides to Blog about something that has a bit of sense it it !!

Phew !!!!

Well, I guess its one of the dangerous things I've done for quite some time. Today While I was trying to get into the train I suddenly changed my mind to get int o the next carraige. I ran and tried to get in, in a hurry, as the Ladies in front of me were taking a long time and were trotting. When I felt my knee knocked something. Then came the loud scream "any magey shoe eka !!" (Oh shit my shoe) A pregnant Lady had dropped her shoe to the rail track while steeping in the foot board. Then a Fisherman who was behind me was shouting "Get in Get in, can take your shoe later" Initial reflex I thought I knocked her shoe and thought of getting it for her. (Because I thought it was my fault)

I knelt down and put my hand between the platform and the train and reached for the track. Damn Outa reach !! No choice I put my head between the Platform and the Train for better reach and grabbed the shoe and threw it inside the carriage. Luckily Train didn't pull off. Or else I would have been be-headed trying to be Good Samaritan (or a foolish asshole). The lady was very thankful. I was breathing at a rate. boy, that was bloody dangerous !!

I thought to my self never will I get into the train while Ladies are getting in. I'll risk it to go on the foot board for not having to do favors like this. I still dunno If my knee knocked the foot board or the lady's shoe. From a long time, I'm beginning hate chivalry for some reason. Although I'm always told to be nice to them. I could have got hammered if the fisherman were not able to board the train because of my heroics (foolishness rather.) In this day where there is a looming bomb scare in trains I go to do some more dangerous stunts.

Yesterday I fell off the ladder while trying to fix a Bulb. Luckily it was when I was climbing down the penultimate slat gave way. However my right toe got a bit torn to a nail, and bruises all over. What the hek? is this the unlucky season or what ?? Hmmm.... need to calm down and think of it again. I would like to hear some opinions on helping people like this. Well my mission is to help people. But to put my ass on the line,(this time its the head) in such a circumstance (for a shoe) could be called utter foolishness. Whoa what a day !!

NOTE : The pic doesn't show the exact Train or the Place !! (Just Googled for an Image)

Here we go again !!

Seven days of the New Year goes past just like that. Time waits for no one. Hope everyone got wished enough and more.For most of the people I got to with I said “Wish you the same” even before I got wished. Wish I could turn back time or get in to a time machine. Lots of moments that we all want to re-live. Also, loads of pain which we would not recall for the world. How if you had photographic memory when it comes to the miserable ones ?? Wish you never lived…..

Oh brother, what a start with the bombs goin off like crazy. Traffic jams, security checks you name it. I’m wondering whether it’ll come to a point where we’ll have to strip in security check points for full body search. New Year’s a time for new beginnings (maybe getting the push for a roll down hill). Nevertheless, hope we will manage to keep our spirits up and go about our day to day. Let us not forget the sorry plight of the displaced people and the shortage of just about everything in Jaffna. We don’t live alone !!

Lets hope everything will take a turn for the good for everyone. If not we’ll take a turn. Heh heh…. so that we go in search of it. (Hmm.. that makes some sense don’t it) So everybody check the wings, check the tanks, check the systems, make sure you’ve got the parachute, and on the signal… Take Off to the skies !!
