I sincerely feel very sad today because even after many many years of being evolved, men behave like animals.
Yesterday (JUNE 29, 2012), Dr Rumi Nath, MLA from Karimganj Borkhola constituency was brutally assaulted by a mob who was angry because of her illegal second marriage to a facebook friend with whom she eloped leaving her first husband and their daughter.
The first emotion that I got after watching the news was anger. Just plain anger. How can people act so brutally? Wasnt there any humane way to express their anger about her personal life?
She is a public figure and I understand if people were angry because of her sudden change in her personal life but it is "personal". I do not think people have that right to beat her and her second husband to show their anger.
If, by law, she has done something wrong then only the law should punish her.
Secondly I felt extremely sad. Nobody has the right to beat a pregnant woman. Doesnt matter how she fell pregnant!
Third and the most important thing is the way men and women are treated in this country. About 8-10years back, a similar story had surfaced and it was a former CM of Assam who managed to get married to his girlfriend (who was also married to someone else and had a child) but nobody even raised a finger at what he had done let alone some angry mob trying to assault him.
Why is there a difference? Both the Former CM and Dr Rumi Nath has committed similar acts. Then why was Dr Nath being beaten up for her actions? Is it because she is a women and in our society women are considered powerless and also women are not supposed to do any act that destroys the integrity of a hindu marriage?
What happened to her can only explain that our society is far behimd in terms of accepting men and women as equals.
Furthermore, how about questioning those men who came to assault her. How many of them can claim that there is any integrity in their marrieges with their partner. I am sure more than 50% of them wont be able to answer it.
When men do something in our society, they are let go because they are men. But when women make the same mistake, they are treated inhumanely as possible.

all gud things !
Honestly what will become of me I don't like reality It's way too clear to me But really life is dandy We are what we don't see We missed everything daydreaming .
Flames to dust Lovers to friends Why do all good things come to an end.
Travelling I only stop at exits Wondering if I'll stay.Young and restless Living this way I stress less I want to pull away when the dream dies The pain sets it and I don't cry I only feel gravity and I wonder why.

LoVE !!
i guess i needed 2 understnd da meanin of love more clearly. so jus went thru an article that xplains abt luv.
Love has many different meanings in English, from something that gives a little pleasure to something one would die for. Interpersonal love refers to love between human beings. It is a more potent sentiment than a simple liking for another. Unrequited love refers to those feelings of love which are not reciprocated. Interpersonal love is most closely associated with interpersonal relationships. Such love might exist between family members, friends, and couples. There are also a number of psychological disorders related to love, such as erotomania.
Liking includes only one of the love components - intimacy. In this case, liking is not used in a trivial sense. Sternberg says that this intimate liking characterizes true friendships, in which a person feels a bondedness, a warmth, and a closeness with another but not intense passion or long-term commitment.
Infatuated love consists solely of passion and is often what is felt as "love at first sight." But without the intimacy and the commitment components of love, infatuated love may disappear suddenly.
Empty love consists of the commitment component without intimacy or passion. Sometimes, a stronger love deteriorates into empty love, in which the commitment remains, but the intimacy and passion have died. In cultures in which arranged marriages are common, relationships often begin as empty love.
Romantic love is a combination of intimacy and passion. Romantic lovers are bonded emotionally (as in liking) and physically through passionate arousal.
Companionate love consists of intimacy and commitment. This type of love is often found in marriages in which the passion has gone out of the relationship, but a deep affection and commitment remain.
Fatuous love has the passion and the commitment components but not the intimacy component. This type of love can be exemplified by a whirlwind courtship and marriage in which a commitment is motivated largely by passion, without the stabilizing influence of intimacy.
Consummate love is the only type of love that includes all three components--intimacy, passion and commitment. Consummate love is the most complete form of love, and it represents the ideal love relationship for which many people strive but which apparently few achieve. Sternberg cautions that maintaining a consummate love may be even harder than achieving it. He stresses the importance of translating the components of love into action. "Without expression," he warns, "even the greatest of loves can die"
Love vs. Insanity?
Studies have shown that mental scans of those in love show a striking resemblance to those with a mental illness. Love creates activity in the same area of the brain that hunger, thirst, and drug cravings create activity in. New love, therefore, could possibly be more physical than emotional (though drawing a clear line between physical and emotional is difficult when discussing the brain).
Over time, this reaction to love mellows, and different areas of the brain are activated, primarily ones involving long-term commitments.
Love sickness
Love sickness has historically been viewed as a mental illness brought on by the intense changes associated with falling in love. Ibn Sena, the 10th century physician considered to be "the father of modern medicine," viewed obsession as the principal symptom and cause of love sickness. This diagnosis has been out of favor since the collapse of the humoral model and advent of modern scientific psychiatry.However the concept of being "madly" in love is not simply a poetic notion. For some, the ups and downs of love sickness may actually have diagnostic similarities with mental illness. People who find the feeling of love too intense may experience "love sickness," with feelings of anxiety and can have symptoms of mania, obsessive complusive disorder inflated self esteem and depression.
A study in The Psychologist, the official publication for the British psychological society, concluded that love sickness should be taken more seriously by professionals. According to the author of the study, Frank Tallis, "Many people are referred for help who cannot cope with the intensity of love, have been destabilised by falling in love, or suffer on account of their love being unrequited.

ComPLicaTed
i guess its a lil complicated to xplain da word me or me. i dont knw wats goin wrong wid me since da time i got bak frm australia. evrything was fine til i got here n sudenly evrything changed. i m stil tryin 2 adapt 2 dat change.
its been realy long since i hav spoken 2 my best frnd. i lost one of my best frndz in da month of march n i stil havnt evn tried 2 make up for da misunderstnding n evrything.
life z so unpredictable. til ystrdy i was livin wid a misconception but now i can see da reality. i guess sum1 was rite - Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of withering, of tarnishing.
