A different day!!

What would one feel when a seemingly normal day would be brought to a abrupt halt mainly due to the likelihood of disturbance in the city. That is what happened yesterday. The only piece of positive news was that the roads were all empty and avoided the agony of traffic. There is hardly any progressive work going on in office due to the current market conditions, still one finds people sticking around in office doing something or the other. Hopefully they actually are!!

While surfing the TV, I happened to watch a debate on the very issue. There was no clear realization that what is happening should never be allowed howsoever justified may be the cause.

Separately, Today morning the maiden Indian mission to the moon took off and was excited to start the TV when I woke up. This was a different and a happy start to the day than any other in the recent memory. While there was a sense of accomplishment, the scientists were cautiously optimistic about the future and the success of the mission. I understood it took ten years to realize this and I felt proud of them as well as congratulated them on the marvelous achievement.

Some people are asking questions though whether India should prioritize such projects when the funds should be utilized towards economic upliftment of its people. If is a tough questions which begs to be thought through. Probably myself think about it in days to come- what do you think?
