Are promises meant to be kept?

By: thakurman | Posted May 01, 2008 | General | 877 Views

Just remembered one of Juggie aka Rustic aka DB's lines... If you don't know Jugs, let me introduce him. Juggernaut aka Rustic aka DismantleBrigade is a terrible writer (as all of us fortunately are). Unfortunately, the dunce overdoes it sometimes with the English part which makes him an outstanding(ly arrogant) writer. Rohitthebest will vouch for that. Even a Prof in English would stress on other aspects too, but not our DB.So here I am on a point raised on one of his earlier reviews.


Remember the first oath (or rather prayer) you ever took at school? - 'All Indians are my brothers and sisters...'


Now that is probably the first oath, prayer we take in our lives. Damn. To top it, we said it quite proudly with a tinge of satisfaction. And I broke it by marrying another Indian. And so did 99 % of us (I don't know the statistics, but believe there are less than 1 % who married foreigners) . When we break promises as children, how can the government expect the Police, Lawyers, Engineers, Doctors and politicians to stick to their promises?!?


Should the school motto be changed and stop this from recurring?  Go figger... ;)
