April fool

The origin of April fool day is unknown, as the origin of the universe seems unknown. There are theories but theories are mostly based on ideas of people. Mainly our eastern culture is influenced by western culture for the celebration of April fool day. April fool day is dedicated to play pranks and make joke among friends and families.

When I logged into my Facebook and twitter pages, I was getting lots of “amazing updates”. For example, Osama bin laden is dead; Nepal became only Hindu State in the entire world; The Beatles are alive; climate change is unreal; earthquake may hit all parts of globe; Jesus Christ son is alive and so on and so forth.

After hearing such amazing updates, I started to think seriously. What is going on? My quest for mysterious search of “holy grail” of an unanswered question was at dismay.

So, I went back again to my facebook page for a heart comforting answers. After few seconds, a friend in my Facebook commented, “You look like Johnny Depp”. Since, I have a tendency to take everything seriously. I wonder if I do or am I being fool to be called, ‘the great, Johnny Depp’.

This is very personal statement and it asks many questions not only on personal level but also about human faces or “look-alikes”.

We are around six billion human living on this planet and it may be obvious that one can look alike another. But do I and Johnny look-like one another? Does it make any difference if I look like Johnny or if Johnny looks like me? I think it will.

It won’t make any difference if I look alike Johnny since he is a great Hollywood actor and everybody him from his famous pirate movies. However, if he looks like me then it might create problem for him because I am an unknown poet, writer and researcher. I wonder if someone like him would like to be like me.

I might be visually similar to Depp but do I really want to call as his “look-alike”. It is quite nice to hear that you look like someone who is famous and great but how about one’s self esteem and value? I get easily angry when somebody compares one individual to another. We all are unique in one ways or another, Aren’t we?

As the Easter is coming, I was walking lonely, slowly and peacefully near my residential Church, I met another friend of mine and he said, “Hey, Buddy, how you doing man, you look so cool in your black jacket, you look like Johnny depp”. Holy Cow! Which day is today, I asked.
He said, “Today is first of April, Man! I am sorry, I was just kidding…making you fool”.
Finally, I realized both of these friends were making fool of me. I was getting angry for nothing. It’s an April fool day!

New Nepal

Every where there is fight, every corner of the city, every streets and every parts of the country. We are very good at doing this. We are fools are we will be fools always in our entire life. We are fools because we are ruled by our great ministers. They always take the benefit of us, we do not know what we are doing. We do because we think our leaders are right. We are walking our own land in vain.We do not know what is right and what is wrong. We do some task because some times we even feel we are doing correct. Welcome to Nepal, the land of its own. The land owned by our kings and minsters. Who says we have a democracy in our country. Saying does not mean that we really have the privilege of democracy. The word is very vast and deep in itself but we do not know what we are talking about here. The word is so vast that we do not know the real meaning of this. Let me give you one example. In Europe, I saw one accident in the middle of highway road. There were two person driving a car suddenly they happened to get an accident. It was not the mistake of either of them. Or they assume that it was not their mistakes. What happened was nothing. There were no men around them taking interest in what has happened with them. There were no fights in between themselves either and there were no such arguments only thing one of them did was he called the cops and the cop came They were just couple of them in their van. The whole situation was handled with due care. Nothing happened ! Now Let me compare this example with the example in our country. What is that we do when some body hits our van, or car or may be bike or something. We shout at him. We are into great arguments we think we are superior and we always assume that we are superior then our opponent. Why do we do such thing ? Is it because of our nature ? Yes to some extent. We are fools are we will remain fools forever. We will only understand that we are grown and mature person only when we stop burning tires, and stop doing these silly bandha, strikes and following them who do not deserve to be called as minsters in our country. Let us be matured human being and let us show some self respect in any situation. As i have already written about this- Prime minister Girija is dead and he is really dead because he shows to his country men that he is sick and wants to get some emotional sympathy that is totally false. Let us not believe in our leaders but let us believe in ourselves. We do not need any government, we do not need any political system but we need our mental attitude to make our country proud. Let us make it proud by "doing" rather than "speaking" nonsense.
