[India had a stunning victory against Pakistan. And it was 
toooooooooo Good. I'am in London now, and i really missed 
being in India to see the jubiliation going on all over India.]

grown men stood all day hitting a leather ball all over open 
ground.

some ran from one point on this land to the other, 
marked by 3 wooden stakes with steel points, at each end
and never anywhere else.

a stranger from Inglistan stood in a straw hat and off and on
raised his arm, now unflexing one finger, now another, and
this decided natinal committment and fervor. he did not 
belong to any of the countries engaged in battle.

when a final tally showed one count greater than another,
people in one group became dejected, while the other
went wild with joy.

all over the world this repeated, till everyone was duly
ceelbrated of the fact of victory, or sent into the pits
of despair.

in some mad sense, national pride was salvaged and
vindicated in one part, and caused to be in question in
the other.

long ago the people from both camps used to live on 
the same land with one name.

national pride riding on a wooden ball.

arya.
