Tip of the day: Re-use your plastic bags.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is OK to obey the law of the land and its sanctity
is never under doubt.However we should not use it as a
pretext to curb a peacful(and perhaps right)
agitation.
The call of the heart is bigger then the law of the
land.Nothing written in any book or codified is
sacrosanct.But what you feel is right.Those who think
that you are wrong will try to prevent you.
It is not about being who is right or wrong.Its about
being on right side and being peaceful about it in
your heart.Let me be the lone person for a cause and
let the whole world be against me, but as long as I am
not betraying myself,not being hypocritical, I will be
happy.
