All Lives Matter ...

In 1944 a 16-year-old black student in Columbus, Ohio won an essay contest on the theme ‘what to do with Hitler after the war’ by submitting a single sentence. “Put him in black skin and let him live the rest of his life in America.”

― Scott Matthews

Well that one damn line badly baffled me and made me lose myself in my thoughts for some time , if a 16 year old could express his injustice in a single line. I cannot fathom how much discrimination he must have seen by then.

Right now there is so much unrest in the world and while the United States is collapsing with the pandemic and the riots, the world is looking at it like, it was a great nation, once upon a time. 

But what happened cannot be forgiven, and like they say 

if not now then when?

If not me ,then who.

I too want to speak against the discrimination that is making rounds in the world right now

But my fight is not only for the Black lives that are being sacrificed at the mercy of the white.

My Fight is for all of those who are being tormented from years, dragged from their comfort zones and are made to suffer only to satisfy the ego of some very wicked brutal humans who deserve a punishment more painful than death. Period.

Over the years I have seen how,  discriminating and abusing people has become a normal practice with no justice being served . I am not just talking about the Black lives here, I am talking about the entire human fraternity, Whether by color or race or age or gender , each one of us have gone through some kind of injustice yet remained silent because we were weak.

and sometimes when everything was normal, we were abused and discriminated by the people who shared the same values as us just to fill the missing fun in their lives, By the way we call them Psycho and sociopaths.But it is no longer the same world like yesterday where people lived in harmony and kindness.  The world we are living in right now is about how the strong feeds on the weak, or the egoist picks on his prey.

Each day hundreds of people are being tortured in every way possible that eating and sleeping has become more difficult than we think.

To be precise

This world is now filled with three kinds of men

those who silently go through the abuse for years and die unknowingly, 

those who are traumatized by the injustice and become sick.

and those who fight and fight and give up ,unable to seek justice.

Since when did doing the right thing became the wrong thing.

Whom should we blame 

Those who kill or Those who watch silently and let it happen without taking a stand.

Some blame men, Some blame women, Some blame the leader , Some blame their party. Why is it so complicated to punish the person who actually is guilty.

Are we all sick somewhere or are we just used to the shit that goes around in the world.

and if it is that way then, 

we my friends are in great danger, 

because tomorrow we are all gonna die and it becomes so normal that our very body may be left out, right where we died with nobody attending to it so it can produce some BLACK coal and other minerals, which can be dug out in the future.

PS: I AM NOT KIDDING.

and please stop with that stubborn wants and desires , Just because you do not have it , doesn't mean you can snatch it from others. Learn to accept that we are gifted with certain traits , certain happiness and certain resources which are spread beautifully over the entire human race.

some who are dark could be beautiful singers, some can be fat yet can paint a paradise and some can be white yet never happy . We all go through things, good or bad , just because you had a bad phase doesn't means others should. 

Be kind instead of being jealous, 

Spread hope instead of uncertainty 

and above all kindly learn to accept your flaws. 

Because it is when we accept that we are wrong that we become right.( Read that again!)

Take refugee in the nature, in the books and in the music and heal yourself instead of snatching it from the people who earned it with their hard work.Art is everywhere if you seek it.Even the dark night sky has bright little stars.

“it doesn't matter what religion or caste you are from, we arrive by birth and leave by death, rest all are bunch of rules and regulations this biased society imprinted”

and by discrimination and abuse I want to speak for children too. 

They think children cannot understand so they fight and argue .

In country side the problem is more brutal that they assault their own children to vent out their anger 

and to them I want to remind , 

That children are not weak , they are listening, They are seeing and They will remember if they ever Lived, Sorry if YOU LET THEM LIVE.

Before taking your anger on them teach them life . Before showing them the world is rude , show them the world filled with love too

An excerpt of a letter from a kid to the world:

.

"No matter how much love and warmth they offered 

they equally did hurt me 

I wanted to stay close and hug them and make them happy 

but since childhood I had to take the burden of being an elder 

I wanted to be a kid and enjoy the perks of that age 

I wanted to swing, sing, dance and chase the stars

but they never let me do that.

waiting each night for father to show up sober 

and praying that nothing should happen to him

waiting for mother to stop arguing and 

hoping that she would never fight again

waiting for that night to quickly dawn into the day 

and wishing that it would never be dark again

nights passed 

days passed 

months passed and 

years passed 

The scars of that childhood still keep haunting me 

Now their fights and arguments started to taunt me

Lost in their fights I am trying to find my life 

far in the words of books and tales

 and away from the world of Truth and lies.

An Anonymous Kid.

While there are children who are deprived, there are them who are overly spoilt, 

They take the world for granted and cant empathize with those who have nothing.

So they try to bully the underprivileged just to satisfy their strength, But the truth is they just don't know how pathetic they look  by doing that and to them , Please get treated soon. YOU SERIOUSLY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH YOUR MIND.

and lastly a note from my heart, 

whether I am elder than you or younger ,

whether I am able or disabled

whether I am your family or your friend, 

whether I am your boss or your colleague 

whether I am Hindu, Christian or Muslim,Sikh,

whether I am White , black or brown, red, 

AND whether I am a Man or a Woman

I deserve the same respect as I give you.

and we all came from the same Adam and Eve.

So before you Judge 

before you abuse

before you exploit

before you assault 

before you suppress 

and before you KILL

Stop for a second,and remember that you will be served with what you have given.

Dhariyaa

Dear Critics,

Speaking up for rights and equality doesn't require any specific sexuality or gender, all it requires is that you are human.”
