BMMA - Begging

This organization is leaches sucking blood from already depleted govt and beggers with begging bowl asking fore more and more, at the same time absolving their community leaders of responsibilities for the development of the community.

Do they ever start an organization that brain storms why they are lagging in community, what their leaders are doing and why the education level is so low and drop out high, why the girls are like breeding machines, and sold to saudi sheikhs.

If they cannot look inside and find out the real cause their state of deprivation, they will for ever be in that miserable state, no matter how many organisations they open.

pl limit yr depravity

dear mr. giri,
it is sad to know that you are my fellow citizen and so depraved!! it would be good to evolve into a better human being...believ me it is a very nice feeling...to begin with start reading your religious texts that will give you some spiritual sense and who knows you may start loving your fellow brethren and not indulge in such language.
may God give you the strength to face hard realities of life.
warmly.
javed

Thank You

Dear Javed,
Thanks for your nice words. I realised it is not good on my part to be so angry for no reason. I could have said samething in a much simpler way. I will take back all my rhetoric, but i still believe what i said and that is nothing can be achieved by asking and begging other than low self-esteem. Yes, some things have to be demanded if not provided, but definelty not asking favours.

Thank You once again.
Giri

BMAA

The topic, unfortunately, is misnamed. It assumes an inferiority complex, a denial, a helplessness.

It should have been - How do we develop our God-given strengths to excel in the modern world" or something like that.
