They,their and themselves....

Watched Memories in March tonight...plunged in thoughts after that...i have not watched any other movie on homosexuality till now...its my first...it was sad...rather very sad.. i felt like crying when arnav was sobbing badly in the car for sid when he was passing that gate...i felt the same when he was wiping out the blood from sid's body in the ambulance...
I m in a relationship now..i can understand what it feels when your loved one is not with you...when you miss that person so terribly that everything else seems to be meaningless for you...they also go through the same pain...the same agony...on the top of that they are not accepted in the society...not even by their parents...what worse can it be...
I am always sympathetic to them...its not their fault..its not intentional..but will only sympathy help? What if my son or my daughter is borne to be one of them? Will i accept? Will my family accept?
I dont know...i really dont know...i have no answers..its easy to write..its easy to say...its easy to think..but its not easy to face..there is a long way to go...but onething i can definitely do...i wont be differentiating them saying "they"..they are "us"...simply "us"..................

Homosexuality is one aspect of life which the current generation has to face as a very serious question in the future.

What I want to say is, this current generation of ours has condemned the previous generations for all the outdated and unscientific traditions. With this question very much inside the horizon, it is now out time to face the reality. I am also concerned about whether we are ready to take some decisions of our own in life?

I mean, can we now promise to ourselves, that we won’t take dowry? That we won’t back down on the issue of human trafficking and child labor? That we would stand for Homosexuality whenever required?

Count me in. I promise myself.

Regards,
Saurav

Poly, finally found something I thought should pen down my thoughts.

It's not only about homosexuality - It's about an entire class of belief system,it's about what has been followed and what should follow...
it's not our concern only to think about the future but find our justification in doing things we believe in.
It's time to act - act something and CHANGE IS IN THE AIR..needs just OUR OXYGEN...
Today as I am writing this, Anna is in Tihar, what he is doing is simply getting the CHANGE done for US.
We need more ANNA's..maybe you and me and WE can be a part of it..
