Is PATRIOTIC REVERENCE an enemy generator ?

As said by Voltaire, "It is lamentable, that to be a great patriot one must become the enemy of the rest of the mankind".  This statement by a french philosopher is subtle enough for any human being to understand the meaning of patriotism.  Patriotism can be elaborated as an undoubted thought in ones mind, thinking that his country is superior to all others because you were born in it.  Patriotism is not only the respect or love towards the nation but it can also be a barbarian fight to proves ones love for the nation.  All these definitions about patriotism and patriotic reverence create a thought in my mind, i agree to the given statement that patriotic reverence for the history of nation often does more to impede than to encourage progress.

        Consider the history of any nation which was ruled by a foreign country earlier; Britishers ruled the Chinese and the Indians, if patriotism among the Chinese and Indians is awaken today, there can be a war without any conclusion, this will certainly hamper the growth and the progress of the nations.  History was meant to happen.  If we keep on thinking about the way our country was being ruled or the way our country ruled, we may get a quarrelous mindset and may also develop a blasphemous thought. There can be fights within the country itself to prove that each indivudials' thoughts are right.  Every history is manipulated at some point of time.  Without having proper knowledge and maturity a warlike behavior is developed mostly among the youth of the nation, because of patriotic reverence.

        The present technological and communication developments are making the world a small place to live.  Patriotic reverence may destroy this peace and harmony and create more enemies.  If an American decides to be a patriotic and boycott usage of foreign items,  this will hinder the growth of American society, there wont be any American participation in the world commerce.  The American trade and economics may be limited, this may impede the progress of nation.  Russia is considered as a medically developed country with good doctors.  If our patriotic reverence keeps us away from a cancer treatment which is only available in Russia, then we are obviously foolish.  Indian is a country to produce domestic products like tea, milk, etc.  These products are exported.  If the patriotism of an Indian citizen stops him from exporting these products, there wont be any Indo-forex trade.  These small trade, financial, economic reasons may spoil the relations among the countries.  Such small disputes can often lead to a big ambiguity, which may further cause cold wars among the countries.

        Patriotism or nationalism are generally love or promotion of ones religious thoughts.  This has to be done by respecting other religious views.  There is no doubt that patriotic reverence also plays a major role in the development of the country, provided that the respect to our country is without the hatred towards other nation.  Since we are born in that country, we have never faced slavery, we are being brought up in an independent nation we should be thankful to our ancestors and forefathers for their struggle for freedom.  Having respect for our mother nation is must, but i am firmly of the opinion that this respect should not create a turmoil and abstain the progress of the nation.

The UnsaFe WOrlD

It was the last drop of water that rolled over Eve's cheek. She stepped out of the bath, hung her moist turkish on the nail protruding out from the paint-scraped wall. Eve's room had a churlish look. Walking three and a half steps, she reached her bathrobe. There were sweet moisture drops on her entire body for she had bathed with steaming water. The cool atmosphere in her room gave a cooling feel to her entire body. The moisture drops and the sweet aroma of Eve's body filled the room. She was in a trembling state, the sultry balmy schweiss on her body had frozen. In no time she grabbed herself a cushion covered chair, made a seat onto it. She held the robe tight on her body, covered her palms under her thighs. Eve had a busy day ahead. A feminine brain always masks itself with an emollient before stepping out. Sensing a tough day, the makeup session lasted for a  while. Eve's room carried a rustic look, but her wardrobe was filled with all shades and patterns. After fifty seven minutes and thirty three seconds, Eve stepped out of her house. The scorching sun and the suspended dusty air made Eve conscious about her makeup. She opened her umbrella and covered her face with a stole. After having walked for few minutes, she felt someone following her. She increased her step rate. Nails firmly digging into the straps of back pack, nose down, her eyes cornered to see every possible view behind - who was following her, what was he having, how was he looking, all the possible whats and whos, hows and whys questioned her mind. The situation was a harbinger to infer what the latter part could be. Eve walked fast to make aloof the situation. She walked all the possible defiles she knew, every narrow lane, but every step she planted discovered a new root for her. Her pace increased, thoughts flooded her mind.  The sweat drops slowly stained the makeup she had applied. Almost a second away from the running step, she felt a hand grab her bag, and then the same hand grabbed her shoulder. The rapacious lizard had caught the beetle. Eve was on the floor. She had a capricious mind then. The scene in front of her eyes turned black; the tobacco was the last thing she could smell from rapid breath of the culprit. It was an incorrigible act. Eve then turned taciturn.

"DON'T TEACH ME WHAT TO WEAR, TEACH YOUR SON NOT TO RAPE"
These slogans, banners are displayed everyday in every corner of the world. Did Eve have an audacious sense of dressing or was the culprit full of temerity? The debate will continue... answers will be placed to become exculpatory...

"Enjoy life responsibly."

Acer Life =Easiest Life

Rustling newspaper,  hypnotic humming ceiling fan, and the crunching of a potato wafer were the only sounds he could hear in the placid library.  He was referring to the Heat Mass Transfer book.  Thermodynamic laws, certain thermal concepts were being continuously noted down by his running hand on the paper.  Keeping his mind aside, with a intention to mug up the derivation,  Kim was totally in a myopic view with the text.  Plasmodium is a malarial parasite he had learned in his high school; plasmodium can also be benign he never knew.  His head was trenching in the book, Kim was trying to relate all the thermal concepts with some  colloquial words.  Hours of reading sends only a drop in your brain; a drop is the only element which remains till the end.  Kim had a strong confidence, his reading if not beneficial, won't be a waste either.  Spending hours in some pacific place, thoughts began running over his mind.  It was now the time to deliver these thermal concepts onto someone elses brain.  It is believed that if you can't explain a thing easily, you haven't understood the thing; to comply with the statement, Kim was searching a dull brain to explain his hours of hard work.  Hard work pays they say, he never knew that his hard work will pay him such an account.  After a few lines of sound advice about the subject to his student-friend, Kim felt he was on the zenith.  He had the habit of convincing people through his words.  He felt that his convincing power and the explanation skills may transform his student-friend into a smart rock.  Kim was completely wrong.  His  dream about teaching, getting his friend at his level was a other way round plan.  Kim's friend usually a nice guy, but when it was about a competition or acquiring spoon fed knowledge his friend was on the apogee.  The only reason behind motivating Kim, learning from him, making him slog in the plethora of books, was to kill Kim's time and get Kim down at his level.  Every person on the ground always sees an ass hole on the pinnacle.  This statement was, is and will always be true.  Kim is still learning, still waiting for the hard work to pay him right.  Hope Kim out smarts his friend soon...Now Kim knows 'friend' if the best dream; can also be the worst nightmare.  He now learns plasmodium can only be benign if you allow it to trouble you, till you build your immune.

Same goes with the life.  If you want to apt a conditioning life, be sure you know the acer part well...
