Expectations from Reservations...

Entire nation is wondering over the cabinet's offer(or a decision?) to reserve seats in prestigious insitutions like IIT and IIMs and other medical colleges. What seems to be the most astonishing fact is that the government itself has so many intellectuals yet they are so adamant about this proposal and that too on the basis of caste. Who says that lower caste people are deprived of any luxuries in our country. Our Government is ready to give admission to a rich lower caste candidate against the poor upper class one. Why this discrimination and unjustice to the quality of education that we get in these world-class institutions. This callousness towards deserving candidates, towards the quality of education is totally inadmissible. Almost 50% seats are reserved for the privileged lower caste people keeping aside their economic status and other factors. In future, how can we trust an undeserving(or may be deserving for that matter) privileged lower class medical doctor who might have completed his/her study on the basis of these reservations. And why just this field.... engineering, business, masters...all have the same story. And posterity will blame us for not producing an integrated, unpolluted society.Education reservations should NOT be made at higher levels where it is just mandatory to cross the threshold only by the deserving candidates. Just lifting the candidates on caste basis will ruin the objectives and standards of these institutions. There are so many options open with our government. Mr.Arjun Singh has sidelined the basis of these reservations which is Primary Education. Why dont they make more reservations for the children and bear all the cost. This will serve our purpose in a more fruitful way and preserve our identity as an Indian. And most importantly, such reservations should not be caste-based but Economic. We should uplift those sections of society who are deprived of quality education due to one reason or the other and help them overcome it starting from below and maintaining the standard upto the hilt.Our government has left we indians with no other option but to protest. And the efforts put forth by doctors all over india is just commendable.No Idea what exactly the government is EXPECTING from this act....(Politics....hmmm.)!!

Expectations...

People say that although I do my best every time, I face disappointments quite often. Disappointment comes from expectations – expectations from your work, family, colleagues and from your precious friends. The chances are most likely when your anticipations are much more than what life can offer. But does that mean we should stop dreaming or limit our thinking? Of course not, we must have that constant urge to do things, that faith in ourselves, that unconquerable will to win. As long as we trust ourselves, nothing can be denied to us. So what exactly required is the power to do things and to accept the defeats. The other way is to stop expecting anything from what you do. So what you don’t get satisfaction at your workplace! So what your friends betrayed you! So what somebody misunderstood you! so what you lost a close friend….so what? Yeah so what…..I never expected life to be fair always. Apparently it’s not that easy to digest these facts. But after pondering for a while I realized that it’s of no use either to keep cursing yourself for everything, for blaming yourself for every damned result. Everything happens by His will and I have experienced it to be good always. You know what you did; you know you gave what was required, so leave aside those unexpected results. A person ought to convince himself/herself to be correct; there is no need for any other confirmation. We admit or not but everything lies in our hands only, we choose how to react. If we want to be happy we just have to prove it. One always makes mistakes, that is life but then we have to learn as well. And one simple funda of a peaceful life is to stop yelling and just make your mindset to laugh our mistakes off!!
