Unity of Women

Opening                                            "Munnaar" a small, placid, foggy place in Kerala state in INDIAN subcontinent, famous as tourist destination for its scenic beauty. Through out the year the place is hit with loads of tourists, foreign and native. One of the famous tourist spots in South India, Munnar had been a tiara on Kerala's Tourism Development Board's achievement.                                               If you think this is going to be another travel blog or something of that sort, you guys are thoroughly mistaken. B'coz i would like to call your attention to this place for a special reason. This is a glance to the story of downtrodden, how they arise fighting the odds. Its about the story of women warriors who stood their ground to attain the goal, who brought  "Munnaar" to a stand still for nine days. "Penbillai Orumai"(Unity of women) is what they called themselves. Courtesy: Indian Express  The Cause

EXODUS - revealing our true selves

We are in the brink of losing our humaneness or did we already lose it? The world is in jeopardy and we see it right before our naked eyes, still we need to set up a committee before taking actions. That means we don't even have same opinion on humanitarian part. Now how pathetic is that? We often forget the reason why people chose to refuge in a particular country, as they consider that country as accepting and tolerant towards others. The reasons for exodus are many, civil war, terrorist groups, ethnic and religious atrocities etc. But there is only one common underlying reason for all of this, that we lost our humanness. Coutesy:  www.un.org This is sad and heart wrenching. People are dying like fireflies. We cant even allow them a bit of space. We have this whole earth yet we are refugees. I fear, this whole event had made me a misanthrope. Mothers holding their children close to their heart and pleading for entry to a strange land which they think is something better
