Stop human cruelty

Girl. 11 years old. Grade 2 student. Picture her.
Now imagine her head being banged hard against a desk and then her body overheating from standing in the sun for hours.
She fainted, went into coma and then died. Who made her do this?
Her teacher decided to met out corporal punishment on her because she couldn't recite the alphabet (and probably because she hailed from a lowly family).
Hard to believe someone can be so cruel to a young girl.
Teachers in India, will you please stop abusing your power on poor young kids. Once you are suspended where 's your power then???
Parents should never encourage corporal punishment in schools. Ragging is no different when college seniors abuse freshmen. Such practices seriously need to stop and the media can help. But they need to stop reporting on the visibility of nostril hair of politicians and start publishing more such stories if the Government is to notice.

Money Money Money


Metallica-The Thing That Should Not Be
So tempting your ways. So luringly evil. Always lurking in the back of my mind, you want me to feed your infinite appetite (have some greens?).  You make sure to get noticed, you attention freak. Get a life! You think you can seduce me while sitting around in bank safes growing fatter?

Not good enough!

I refuse to bow down to you. I shall not be taken in by your evil ways. My definition of success will not include you or anything that you can help me possess. It will solely be about how I change and improve the society and the life around me. My satisfaction will come from being happy with what I already have, being happy with what I do. I will never let you become the sole motivating factor in any of my personal endeavors.

Sorry, but this is the end of our relationship. I can't give you the attention you demand. You already have many other people for that. It's not me, it's you. I'm fine with just staying as friends. Can't handle anything more than that.
