pingi and the may-day train

kya re... u cud've easily got a berth on that 1st may train... saath chalte mazaa aata... doh the journey wasnt too uneventful... outraged at the typical UP civic sense (shamelessly i can pin point it as that) i got one old man to go sit somewhere else than putting his ass in my face... but the ones sitting a bit below... cudnt get them to move... one thot he was too right and i was too wrong... well yes i apologised to him for shouting out loud aftr my joining hands to plead them to move had no effect, apologised cuz he was pretty old... and the third was too old. i didnt mind him sitting out there (there comes another biased mind).
but yeah... i'd thot kgp jaake achha khaaasa blogpost ho sakta hai iske upar. now i decide against it. wont write anything depressing... hmm dunno aftr reading chatty's blog yesterday i feel such things do move ppl...
the thing is it makes me very sad being an Indian when there r older ppl like those who wont move their butt off my berth to teach their children the rules and all... when there r those who r wrong but they think they r too right becuz wrong has been done too often and is so prevelant they hav adapted it as right. for what i feel is right might b righter than what the majority i face in such a situation feel... for it is difficult to make them understand cuz even aftr ur apologising to them if u tell them politely what u think is right is righter than wht they think is right, they wont lend n ear... cuz sucha a thing is very unheard of... cuz there hav been sparks but none ever led to a fire... cuz the wood was too alive, though it was old enough to burn... that is the point he made was strongly made enough to make him right and make him shut his understanding for the need to change, however dated or flawd it was... India has abt a sixth of the world's humans. but that doesnt make general bogies sleepers or sleepers generals... that doesnt mean a TTE takes money and gives u a berth to share wid someone who was already guaranteed a full berth... that means theres a need to change... not to amend... but to transform our systems... to make rules and make ppl follow them... even to stop ppl frm defecating in the open... the govt has really done a few good things to the country... even if a reservation thing was a bit pointless nd all.
