I know its not the time to write about Valentine's day. Would have been appropriate, if i had chosen this topic around 14th of Feb. But who cares, i can write anything coz its my world. Yeah back to the topic, am not a supporter of this culture. I feel, this day is celebrated to boost the business of flourist, greeting card sellers etc. Well, you should listen to weird stories of having different meanings for different colors worn on tat particular day. Seriously speaking its all crap.
The due importance given to our culture like celebrating Diwali, pongal is becomin a history. Well, i could find ppl who could just watch TV with all special programs on queue
Why is this day celebrated? I have absolutely no clue. Loving your loved ones everyday is not your duty?Why is that you need a day to show how much you love them. Neverthless, useless satellite channels potray this day as one of the biggest day in a year. Chappani calls up myl to express his love over a phone call in a music channel. Ofcourse there is a slide running below showing love compatability between two ppl. Oh my god, doesnt that sound crazy ? You should see the rush in restaurants and hotels. Special dining, special cuisine blah blah advertising in all forms to lure the customers and enjoy great business.
Next, those road side romeos waiting in public places with a red rose and a greeting card in hand, waiting to give to a girl who they hardly know. They would have seen the girl in tat particular bus stop for quite sometime. Ya, it happened to me personally. I was being followed by a guy till college for sometime and this was never known to me untill he dropped a gift package in my auto while i was goin to college on feb 14th morning. I initialy thought it was misidentity.. Later i realised, my name was written on it. I read the contents of the greeting card and found the name of the guy was not at all associated with ppl i meet day to day. He doesnt belong to my college, not associated with friends outside college, yet wanna express his feelings without knowing who i am. I knew he was out of his brains and had nothing worthy to do in life. I passed on the gift pack to one of my frnds who inturn unwrapped, put a new wrap and gifted the same to one of his friends for his birthday. I know its seriously stupid on my part to misuse the gift, neverthless, the guy deserves it for doing a foolish act like this.
Similarly the next year, same day me and my friends had been to a restaurant after a tiring day out in college for having lunch. I could see a guy with a guitar in his hand and a blushing girl, sitting infront of him. I really have no clue, why he was trying to act like Santana or may be any big shot from famous music band. He was holding the guitar, singing a song for the girl. The worst part of it was, he was singing one particular line from a song for abt 25 times. Imagine the plight of us. We already had a tiring day at college after struggling with the symposium works. We had come there for Aircon effect and we got stuck in a mess like this. We were fuming, i finally decided to call upon the manager to ask these guys to shut their mouth for sometime. Infact, i developed hatred for that song and till date i dont hear it, change the channel that plays this song.
As far as i am concerned, there are better things in life and wasting money,time and energy for crap like is not worth it. Infact, i hate not only days like this, but also mother's day, father's day blah blah. We are born in a country, where parents are to be treated supreme to GOD. Arent we supposed to realise that everyday is mother's day and everyday is father's day? After all, they sweat, toil and struggle to bring us up. There is no need to remember them or highlight them on a particular day. Praising them and keep them happy everyday is our routine. I wish, we realise this soon and give importance to what is needed in life.
