Why can’t I write….

Ive been wondering why I havent been able to write a single blog entry in its entirety…I always start one but never manage to finish it….and I kind of know whats stopping me…I’m afraid because I hide secrets….things that take me away from the path people call “being normal”….. It has bogged me down for ages…… but this is one of my efforts to fight back….

The only museum I have visited so far in the US has been the museum of tolerance….it was quite intriguing that a whole museum could be built on this theme….but it was….and I dont know whether I should call it intriguing or sad….that there has been so much intolerance in the world to date that there is a museum which is full of artifacts reminding us of the world we live in…..Numerous people are killed and discriminated against for no fault of their own….the second world war was an attempt by Hitler to  eliminate the Jewish population across Europe….In the museum there was a section which was built like a concentration camp…and a room which was exactly like a gas chamber where people were killed by exposing them to poison gas…3 million jews were killed in this way…..and the reason? jews were an inferior race and had to be eliminated from the face of this earth…including gypsies, the disabled, homosexuals and other political prisoners…….

such mass murder is hard to believe….but it was a reality not long back..it happened .and it didnt stop there….wars, violation of human rights continue in this world…..darfur, iraq…are just few of the places….while we just sit and watch…we dont question ourselves…what can we do…we just exclaim…nothing can be done….what we dont realize is by saying that we are forgetting those people…who went through the torture subjected onto them…..children being punished…not knowing why….and in the worst way possible….

when i learnt about the holocaust in class 10 history…I just looked at it as a 6 point/mark question….but looking at the destruction  that was actually caused…..it is our duty to be educated…about what happened….and to educate others….so that such hateful crimes against humanity dont ever happen again..human beings are the most intelligent creatures on this earth…….we know that diversity is what makes the world worth living in…it is who we are……it is what makes us special….

so inspite of my lack of an ability to write any post coherently…atleast i would try to write one which would reflect what i think….unaltered…unfiltered……and i hope i can show people who i truly am…not someone who’s hiding himself just because the world would view him as different….because at the end of the day…we are all different…and we should be proud of that….
