We love to judge others. Prepare our special dyes and cast people in their respective and appropriate moulds. Any individual that does not subscribe to our dyes are perpetual offenders. And the sculptures that waver a bit from its original mould are branded warped.
An appropriate widow has to shun bright colours. Dance and music are for the young. Sex is a taboo. Displays of conjugal behaviours are disapproved. The old have past their age to have fun and the young have to be reigned in.
There is this immense scrambling to snuff out anything that spells fulfillment. We thrive in seeing people struggle.
Is being intelligent and having the power to think being suitably used? Isn’t the fungus that’s growing on our mind-set becoming deadlier?
When will we unlearn to cast the first stone? When will we accept people who are different with contrary ideas from ours? When will we acknowledge that someone else might be right? When will we stop calling people “freaks”?
Most importantly…when will non-english speakers intelligence not be judged? The snobbery that I see around me sometimes stifles!

Hiya Wiskyd,

Thanks for your response buds.
Was in your beloved city yesterday but it was a touch and go thing. What struck me was the hoards of insects that errupted last evening everywhere since it had rained 2 days ago....was crazy trying to dodge them getting entangled in my hair...lol!
Better luck next time around in meeting you...
Bunty.

Hello Palahali,
Thanks for dropping by. Regarding judging people's intelligence with their proficiency in English...I must share this story with you why I notice such mediocre behaviours in educated people.
Most recently I was at a doctors clinic and an old punjabi lady walked in who spoke in cast punjabi to the compounder that she needed some expectorant that the doctor had prescribed earlier. Everyone in the clinic exchanged snobbish smiles from their comfortable english corners. Geez!
And sadly most of us are guilty of such behaviours at some point in our life.
Bunty.

Live and let live....is just a phrase for most of us. We thrive on other people's misery.. It somehow makes us feel better than them....I don't know how such a convoluted thought process is so rampant. Yeah....judging others and creating moulds is a way of life here....
You are right...it's stifling. We have got to get out of this kind of attitude..and about that english speaker being intelligent....that's a load of bullshit but you are right...i have seen that exact line of thought and heard ridiculous talk...just goes to show how shallow people can be...
Nice bindaas blog, Bunty. Great to see you back here..
