Things change and so do people. Anna Hazare is currently rocking the country and even expatriates across the world are coming forward to show support. Anna Hazare is indeed a man of substance, a very promising leader with austere lifestyle. He has happened to have united the whole of India (which only cricket did till now). People have discovered the power in them, which was suppressed till now out of fear of being alone. We tend to look for someone to guide us through difficult times and here we have Anna who has paved the path for Indians to know that they can join hands and bring down the injustice and wrong doing against them. Power and money has come down to knees.
What disappointed me today was when media was showing Baba Ramdev as a fugitive & coward and started comparing Anna with Baba Ramdev. Baba Ramdev, at one point, w
as praised all across the country and was regarded very high due to his contribution to Yoga. He brought yoga to each house and made people realise the importance of Yoga. He went against govt for people just like Anna but his only mistake was that he got scared of the police and started running when police tried to arrest him for protesting. He became the laughing matter overnight. A man, who once was praised by everyone, became a joke. His struggle is allegedly been considered politically motivated now. This all might be true but what makes me wonder is how things change so quickly.
It's strange right how we start loving someone so much and then suddenly if something goes wrong we insult him and move on. Our memory is so volatile. I just wish things don't change for Anna, and he shines forever like a star, i wonder thou!!!!
