It's a Religion

Cricket. Yes that’s what.
People (Crickettes) are crazy (I don’t know about any other country but here in India, Yes).
I remember since my childhood, whenever there was any match (specially between India and Pakistan), EVERYONE were in their house watching it !!!! Shops use to shut down at just 4 PM !! And if we win that, Oh my GOD !!! people use to celebrate as if we have won a war. With India –Pakistan I can understand but I can’t understand how someone can see a cricket-match where none of the teams is of his /her country.

I however, could never understand whats so big deal about this cricket…
There is a batsman and a bowler, bowler throws a ball and batsman plays, few guys are there to get the ball and give it to the bowler and rest other (millions) sees this happen again and again…
Once I had to see this (ya that was a punishment my friends gave me for loosing a bet..) and I realized one more new thing… this guy, the “batman”, he was dogging the ball in different styles and these cricket freaks have given all those crazy postures an unique name !! same for throwing ball... (full toss is the only one I can still remember).

Boy !!! How can someone bear that game !!!

I saw soccer, which I liked. Atleast everyone is involved and it’s a fast game not like cricket where it take days to wind up that game (I mean come on !!!! )

PS : I remember in one of the prelim rounds of a quiz, the quiz master said some number and asked in which match India scored this, can you believe that the score was of Indian team in a movie (Lagaan) and there were PEOPLE WHO KNEW THIS !!!!

Random Thought

Everyone must have thought about “life after death”. Even I am not sure if it exists. Just a thought.

As a life begins, it is in a secure world of its mother’s womb where it develops all the necessary requirements which enable it to survive in this world. As the time approaches for its birth, it might feel like a “death” to that little soul where it has to come to a totally new and unknown environment, leaving all the comforts it had.

Who knows, as we live here, we too like a small child develop all the skills required in the new world where we go after death.

What say ?
