Moral issues

Earlier people used to follow the morality and the ethics as those were followed by their mentors. Those were followed accordingly for the sake of good and prosperity. So it was a kind of circle like the cyclic quarter formula. Things were supposed to be good at least. There was less violence in their beliefs. People used to live freely in their mind about ten to twenty years back. And now the whole situation has changed.

What has happened to those minds? Well nobody has the answer I believe, or nobody has the courage to speak up. We are in a situation from where we can't come out. It seems our minds are stuck and our souls are sold to those evils that we fear most. We feel proud to be one of them. We like to be driven by them as we consider them our lords and moreover our real mentors have been kicked out by these new mentors.

Now let's get closer to the point. You want to know about these new mentors? Well, you know them. They are our own people. Well, folks, I am talking about our so-called sons of gods. Not clear yet, of course, I am talking about our self proclaimed politicians who love to spare any person for fulfilling their desires. We observe so many days in one calendar year. There should at least be one day in a calendar so that we can express our hatred towards those politicians who don't mind committing crimes against humanity.
