Gandhari

What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months?

The biggest challenge is to face Gandhari. We are imperfect not because of Him who created us but we render ourselves so by riding many an impulse. Good ones are appreciated like running away from home for education when they want you to stay back as most obedient, not actually but to avoid daily thrashing, to hold towels to guests.

That one impulse you rode and few such others to redeem oneself from Sisyphus’ sorrows. I liked to keep kitchen clean because it’s better not to order others like there is the custom of men that still prevails. Then, you know the towel (which instead of blossoming into passions dyed in black, days and nights) and self imposed toil (literally , just let me add let and it’s complete meaning).

Then there are guns and that’s the biggest challenge. You let the fires burn into young minds, fill it to the cores by daily chores and same fires you inculcate of liberal thoughts rather than kicking shins like others do and that’s the real challenge now to face the consequences, to pay the price of being progressive while you reap fruits of advantage of being so.

It’s like seven decades the political party giving freedom and chained tigers of religion and those are set free now and are killings the same party completely, it happens in such impulsive life in which you never knew that your role model teachers were chaste in whose homes nobody ever even shouted at others, let alone abused.

You faced successfully the uphill challenge to come out of that peasants and feudal culture of subjugating the weak to serve you were forced to ride life’s worst challenge to get rid, at least you alone from the right winged volunteer’s abusive treatment and had to sacrifice everything.

Therefore, life’s truly supreme irony is correct models you emulated of those chaste who made you what you are but you can’t totally get away from ground reality of resulting consequences you must face like a brave person. Even Krishna bore brunt of abusive look of Gandhari, foiling his last attempt to avoid Mahabharata.

Who the Dickens are you? Face situations you created and survive if you can.
