well..individuality can be the sole reason for creativity..but dat can even lead to despicable acts..creativity not necessarily, is used to give fructuous results....It is the Thought that changes the world..WE r wot our thots hav made us...wordz r secondary...thots live,teh travel far...coming to the freedom of thot...wot is freedom of thot??can i cal it freedom of conscience?..i ain't opposing the freedom of an individual to hold a viewpoint regardless of anyone else's...u have every rite..buh how well r u using yer freedom of thot...u say something offensive....write something provocative...which may directly or indirectly offend many groups in the society...y do u think freedom of thot is limited by means of censorship...bookburning..nd more subtly by propaganda?...lemme further condense it nd ask u a simple question ..wot is right? nd wot is wrong?...perceptions differ rite?...wot is wrong to u may seem right to others..views differ...so does the thought...it is then the freedom of thot is stifled when the views of the majority become so widely accepted that other ways of thinking are repressed...u cal it a hurdle to progress...i don't totally agree on tis..u come up with insidious ideas nd wen ppl try to judge them nd supress such harmful thots..u still think limiting freedom of thot in tis context is an act of supression?

silent tears...

Always wanted to talk about this..but never did.. Always wanted to complain 'bout this..but never did.. Always wanted to give a voice to these thoughts..But neva did... Then why now? After seeing this post by TEAL The fairer Sex , cudn't help breaking the silence.. It left me with burning rage,left me infuriated.. Such topics always Bring back al' those bad memories which wer pushed into the dungeon of darkness.. Bring back those memories of silent tears and burning helplessness... Bring back the memories of dat night when al of us girls cuddled up in a room to share the worst times of their lives. We were stunned to know dat all of us shared similar experiences..not even a single girl is spared.. jus becoz we don't talk 'bout it doesn't mean we've never been subjected to it. Truth is, we've simply chosen to shut up and grit our teeth. You expect to confront harrassment everywhere...in crowded buses,in theatres,at office ,on roads,in public places and

Whats the right time?

This is for all the women out there. and few of the men too. Why the hell do people get married (or rather "married off" is a word most often used in case of women.) by the age of 21 or some even when they are younger. The legal age limit may be 18 for women and 21 for men. But that doesnt mean you should go and marry the next person you see after the legal limit. THINK A LITTLE. I am not saying that every person gets married immediatley after his/her education. But seeing two of my classmates(a guy and a girl. but not to each other :p ) getting married in the last six months, I am beginning to have my doubts. Most parents want to 'marry off' thier children as soon as they can. They think it is a burden that they can no longer hold, any longer after thier child graduates. But why, the hell, cant they realise that raising a child for 21years is a good job in itself. and let them make thier own decisions from then on!! Ok i do agree that parents are ready to feed thier

True Love??!!

By -
This is what urban dictionary has to say about true love This is what i liked best, True Love : love without need of sex, beauty,anything physical or material, expecting nothing in return. ok, so if that is true love, what actually is love ?. well i am not talking about a mothers love for a child, nor am i talking about a brothers love for a sister. I am talking about THE LOVE between two individuals who are apperant strangers, i.e. not have any relation between them!. Is not love meant to mean the same ? is it not wanting to be there for another person, despite anything?? then how come the word true love was coined in the first place, if just the word 'love' could suffice it all?? I gather this. Humanity's greed and stupidity have known no limits through out its history, and they are not showing any signs of being tamed. And, in this case, stupidity i guess was the sole reason that a whole new term had to be coined just to indicate how superficial the world has become. Ca
