HELP!

There are many questions that arises in ones mind after an event like the Mumbai blasts occur. I care to voice a few here
..Why is the government not able to do anything solid against terrorism?
...How much longer will the common man have to suffer and die due the negligence of those in power?
...When will the politicians start doing their duty?
....Will we never be able to safe in our own city in our own homes?

There may be many more such questions that fill every niche and corner of our mind every time we are reminded that we are not safe, that we are just waiting ducks for the next terror attack. With no answer in view it can be really disheartening to think that we are powerless in the face of danger. So how do we make a change? This question i believe is the one that outshines every other question because we all want to change the situation we are in. All we need is the way to do it.

Being a true Indian I take many of my inspirations from the Indian film industry :P
For this question too I have one reference...Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Rang De Basanti !!!!
Changing the country IS IN our hands...making it better IS IN our hands too! Join the army, join the IAS, go into politics..there are abundant options available to us, we just need to be able to face the problems that will block our way. If we want the change we have to be the change!!

On the floor, on the bed
the naked truth is everywhere.
Hide if you want but 
you won't close your eyes
death is a show for the living.
Ignore it, destroy it but
the presence won't fade.
The red splattered around you
carelessly you look on.
Selfishness and fear for self
make you blind of the horror.
You watch life crumbling and choking.
Turn your face or lower your gaze
the picture will haunt you.
You live in your world,
forgetting the reality of our world.
You dream still ignore others
going down the drain.
You live but avoid others 
dying at your foot steps.

....







There she sits all alone

by herself waiting.

Hair like a flowing river

eyes like clear water.

With every breathe and every sigh

her impatience shows.

Fidgeting hands, worried forehead

her calm was slowly slipping.

The eyes were getting anxious,

now the feet began to tap.

She walks around aimlessly. 

A look of great decision crosses her face,

a look to decide once and for all.

Suddenly a call from behind

she turns and she changes.

This wasn't the first time

and this won't be the last.

No more trouble on her face,

the sparkle is back in those eyes.

Her heart and her soul belongs to him,

it shadows all his faults for her.

She forgets the wait and the pain

because he is her man!!!

I am with you always, I can see you all the time

run or hide but I'll still be there

You are scared of me, I'm your truth your reality

You wake up with me, you sleep with me

you don't turn at night afraid to see me staring

I was I am and I will be forever by your side

You think I'm gone because you want me to vanish

but I'm the good in you I can never disappear

I'll nag you for every wrong you do

and I pat you on the back for the good

You try hard to not think of me harder to forget about me

but I have an eternal presence because I am you conscience!!!
