Happy Mother’s Day to all the gorgeous mothers out there.
Today I am just going express what I feel about a mother’s love. A mother is a walking miracle , her love is magical which I think no poet or artist could ever portray it or describe it through paintings and poems. Her love is so pure and selfless, that sometimes I wonder that how can someone be so benevolent and self-sacrifising, its just beyond my imagination. In these 19 years of my life, I have learnt one thing for sure that no one will have your back forever except your mother. She will be standing right beside you in every phase of your life and without expecting anything in return. A mother and a child are connected through a umbilical cord at first but then, connected through hearts for life. A mother is the only person who will love you deeply and unconditionally till her last breath.
So, on this Mother’s Day I watched a wonderful movie wth my mother and its name is “ROOM” it is old movie which was released in 2015 but is recently available on online streaming platforms. It is directed by Tommy Wiseau. The movie is based on a girl who gets kidnapped, confined to a tiny room and raped and after 2 years she gives birth to baby boy, who becomes her light of hope to get out of this hellhole. The movie is so beautiful that it just wrenched my heart. Me and my mother both cried atleast twice/thrice while watching it.
The movie also conveys this message that a mother will not even think twice for putting her life in danger, in order to save her child’s life. In the movie the child’s name is Jack, who is unaware of the fact that there is a big world outside the tiny room in which they live. The kidnapper never used to take them out and has locked the door using password protection so that there is no chance they could escape out. The movie is a absolute masterpeice and one of the most underappreciated films of modern era. The character writing is outstanding and every line feels genuine and carries a emotional weight. The story is so suspenseful that it will give you rapid heart beats. The movie has got 4.6 ratings out of 5 and even I feel that this movie is worth watching on this special day.

Tragedy with a history: Gas leak incidents in India

Tragedy…

There is a saying in Tibetan, “Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.” No matter what sort of difficulties, how painful experience is, if we lose our hope, that’s our real disaster.” The 14th Dalia Lama

When we shouldn’t lose hope means that we should make sure the same tragic things does not happens again.

Didn’t we learned a lesson 35 years ago? And yet, here we are with a repeated history. The same incident took place 35 years ago in the state Madhya Pradesh, Bhopal. Though Bhopal was much worse than Vizag. The death and the aftermath was so horrific that for weeks people had suffered diseases related to the gas. Both the tragedies were same in a way, both happened due to the negligence of the company’s authorities. Slack management and deferred maintenance which in result created a situation where routine pipe maintenance caused a backflow of water into a MIC tank, triggering the disaster.

If such tragedies keeps on happening we don’t know how many toxicity one country can take, so this happening is another lesson for the whole old and promising nature of the Government.

Bhopal and Vizag were not so different from each other, the whole situation was covered up with an excuse of being mistaken or being blamed on a worker being irresponsible and never even once mentioning their own fault of being irresponsible, siting in a comfortable chair of an AC room they decide the problems and solutions of the poor people who becomes the victim of such hazardous incidents. The atleast 50 days untouched machines were being used suddenly without any inspection resulting the death of 11 people including elderly, women and infants.

Even with the compensation the grief and the bigger loss of a person’s life cannot be replace or compensate with anything but a justice can bring relief to the families who have lossed their loved ones. Seeking for justice and looking forward to a better tomorrow without any tragic incidents and without a history being repeated incidents would be a better India to live in. The hope of seeing a better India.
