To write or not, has always been a
mind teaser within me. Expression of thoughts as it comes has been an unwinding
process for a long time.
From small topics to bigger ones,
by now, it has indeed given me lot of space on the Web. As also, several
contributions to the community.
Earlier days, they used to
repeatedly say pen is mightier than the sword. In a way, it is true even now.
One such achievement is the effort
for continuous campaigns on pedestrian safety.
The media and authorities are
devoting more attention to streamline things to make our roads much safer.
However, there are a few who
ignore the basics and cause destruction to themselves and others.
New Year eve was one such occasion
where I witnessed road rage by many, for no reason whatsoever.
Some cars were moving at
unimaginable speed and coming too close to the bumper.
I was imagining a driver who was
new on the road to get in between these mad minds.
More needs to be done to alert
authorities and control this tendency and try and curb it as much as possible.
There is no rest for me till then.
I will continue to write, using all possible platforms. That’s the resolution for
2014.
