In an article in the Times of India called "Make us part of the growth story, demand rural kids", 5000 children from over 8 staates participated in a rally "9-is-mine" campaign requesting 9% of the GDP to public expenditure on health and education.In the pullitzer prize winning book "The world is flat", the author says"India can have the smartest high-tech vanguard in the world, but if it does not find a way to bring along more of those who are unable, disabled, undereducated and underserved, it will be like a rocket that takes off but quickly falls back to earth for lack of sustained effort. “This is true because civilizations have perished in the past when there has been extreme disparitities of income and wealth. Rajiv Gandhi as one of India's strongest prime ministers said that only 15% percent of funds for poor actually reached them. What if this continues? Even urban Indians are fed up of poor governance but cannot do much about it most of the times. How will rural India cope?

i think about this when i hear a girl calling another girl "hey *****!". And when instead of letting your son serve himself, or wash dishes you do it for him, and how sometimes women (specially those women in the hollywood scene) show no respect for their bodies---

Please...no sarcastic remarks. I'm very serious here. Often when I look in the mirror, my perception of the reflection flickers back and forth between seeing myself and seeing someone else and it both scares me and puts me in a state of awe and I start crying...does this happen to anyone else?

she and this other girl (whom i kinda know) (i know of but haven't spoken to the girl i'm talking about) they were walking past me in the parking lot at school so i made eye contact with the one i know, and smiled and waved, she smiled back. At this point, they are 6 feet away kinda still in front of me but to the side. I looked at the other girl (to be nice) smiled, and gave a nod. she raised her shoulders, squinted a little and gave this big, but kind of funny looking smile...
any thoughts? i don't have any feelings for her or anything, and i don't think she likes me (or even knows my name). What's up?

I dreamt of my ex-girlfriend a couple of times, but we have no communication for 10 long years. But the dream i have with her feels like its really happening. As in you're in it. And my dreams are sequential. Like a narrating a story.

And sometimes my dreams are too detailed that frequently it happens to me. What I see in my dream happen in me. I just want to make sure if my dreams do have connections in me.

Do such unbelievably weird things? I read about geniuses like Goethe who wouldn't write unless he had a rotting apple in his desk, or Dickinson who shut herself up in her house for what, ten years? Or the hysterical fits and screaming and crying of Mozart when he'd compose....why?

Ladies, can you answer this for me ?
I'm a guy who is very easy to get along with, I value honesty & respect, loyal to all my friends, I don't engage in irresponsible behavior and mind my manners, I help others without being asked, I care about other people and what they think. What I need to know is, how come being this way makes me unattractive in the eyes of women, no matter what their racial background are, or walk of life ? What kind of woman wouldn't hate me for having such flaws, by today's social standards ? Should I just give up on love and prepare to die ? Can the women reading this answer me honestly ? The best one gets 10 points, now go !
