It is well into the second half of the night and I am yet to feel droopy, let alone fall asleep. In my sleep deprived state I am surfing through the various news channel websites, catching up on all quake related snapshots. The Home Minister was in Sikkim today and he took rounds of the casualties in STNM Hospital plus north Sikkim. While his opponents (and a few co-party members) are eagerly awaiting his return and response to the developments building up on the 2G spectrum scam front, here he is performing a duty expected of a central authority.
I find the whole parliamentary process so complex and know for a fact that I will never be able to shoulder such huge a burden. With great power comes great responsibility and sometimes I feel I'd rather remain powerless; for it only means I won't have scrutinising eyes measuring my every move. As I read more and more about the constitution, I am in awe of the framers of the document. There is so much detailing that has gone into it. Ofcourse amendments are made every now and then, but no one or rather nothing is perfect really. The path that I have chosen for myself has a lot of lessons waiting for me. I only wish I could have a decent discussion with my family about this. The group on BBM is more of a comedy channel. Fun, frolic and laughter aplenty but if I try to be a little serious then I am called a snob.
This journey, I feel, will prove to be a life changing one. I just want to have a meaningful existence, and I hope it doesn't prove futile in the end.
