The first week of October will be remembered largely for two persons. I just ran into a tweet about them:
Dear
Religion, This week I
safely dropped a man from space while you shot a child in the head for wanting
to go to school.
Its about Felix Baumgartner’s stratos jump and the cowardly attack
on Malala Yousafzai. Felix ‘s jump showed us how high humanity can reach and
Malala’s attackers proved to what extent humanity can stoop down to reach abyss.
Felix,
the real daredevil, deserves
accolades. He exemplifies the human
efforts to overcome fear, challenges and perform something extraordinary. His
supersonic jump also signifies the quantum leap in science and technology. I’m
impressed…
But I’m
far more impressed by this girl Malala. I really want to salute her. That girl
at the tender age of 14 had the courage to stand up for a cause knowing that
her life had threat. She has put forward a strong message: Of ‘Fem’-powerment,
of courage, of the desperation and suffocations in backward societies, of the
value of education. Don’t you think she deserves Nobel Peace Prize more than
Mr. Obama or European Union???

ReplyDeleteI like the way (especially)how the two non coinciding things which you have correlated with each other. Its really mean a lot and shows the qualities of a matured power of thinking which lies within you, Although you have expressed it very nicely and very impressively the mentioned NOBLE award I am not much agree (It dose not mean that I am completely disagree)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your opinion Harshal. :-) And in the last part I have just put forth the thought that Malala's contribution to the global community is no less than these Nobel Prize winners.
ReplyDeleteLong ago Marx said " Religion is the opium of masses.". The Taliban-Malala incident is an better practical example of this.
ReplyDeleteSalute to the young girl for such a strong step and fight against the conservative hooligans who dream of crushing the human rights voices and equal representation of women in modern era.
