Zaraa hatke`

This post is too soon! But I am astonished by the amount of feelings a sharp comment could generate!
My last post had 11 comments after 1 hour of it's launch!
Well this is what happens when you do things zaraa hatke!
But this zaraa hatke` was going to cost us very heavily once!
Us here is me and my friend vikram! It was in the undergrad college (NITK) and it was the election time! The results were announced and it seemed that Sonia Gandhi was all set to become the prime minister of India!
As expected in college, maximum of the youth were anti Sonia! , anti congress for that matter!

But as usual, we had to do something zaraa hatke`. We started talking about how good it will be that such a beautiful woman will be the prime minister of India! It means that finally woman power has shown it's true colours! now parliament will look good with a record number of women elected!! etc etc ....... and all possible things without really meaning any of it!

Thank god, not many people heard us, but whoever did, ran away 20 miles from us! :)

But it was loads of fun!
And i understood a really vital lesson in my life! People are very prejudiced! half of the thing that we believe are imposed upon us! And we revere them without really thinking about them!
But it is very important that we understand things very clearly and then develop our own view!
