When the indian media went ballistic screaming on top of their voices that India is shining, the young boys continued to work at the tea stall or beg on the streets to feed themselves and family.
A lot of children are draining their childhood and becoming adults very early or rather before time.
Just as a premature baby is dangerous, a premature man is dangerous too. A man has to travel through each and every stage of life and a man without childhood is a very dangerous man.
So when I see the children begging or working in the sun instead of playing or attending school, I wonder the future of the country and our future generations and the frustration that these children would be bottling up within them.
The frustration that will grow with them exponentially making them lethal. As the society kills their childhood with hatred and oblivion, someday they will kill the society's fabric. Bit by bit.
The more you hate them the more it will come back to you with more potence. We are not helping them to learn to be a part of the society and tomorrow when they turn against the society we will suffer. Suffer the bombs they will make and the murders they will commit. and the 9/11s they will create. It will be our fault all the while for not guiding them from the beginning.
The seeds of hatred would have bloomed in their fertile imagination and turn devilish, which will be sowed by our very hands now.
They say prevention is better than cure. We are not even thinking cure when we should begin with prevention. Let us start somewhere. with someone.
I hope that there are some people who are selflessly trying to do something good for these cursed little creatures else our cumulative hatred towards them may pollute our lives and society forever
