Have you ever experienced this ?

Your destiny took you to some unique & remote place on earth. You learn to live with new language, new fabric of society and new set of people. What is the first thing that you miss ?

I missed my mother tongue. Its sweetness, its lovable diction, stories, songs etc. When I lived far away in Cambodia for some time I read book in my language. I spent all along listening to songs in my language in remote England. I was so yearning to speak to some one in my language in Vegas. The moment I see some one who resembles from my place, I moved close by to know if he speaks my language. There's nothing like feeling that delight, when you discover some one who speaks the same mother-tongue as you in unknown geography.

I felt the power of language when I met an elderly couple speaking my language in remote Cambodian temple town, a Tibetan lady speaking my language on unknown Tsoka hill ranges of Sikkim.

Language defines a culture, through the people who speak it and what it allows speakers to say. Words that describe a particular cultural practice or idea may not translate precisely into another language. Many endangered languages have rich oral cultures with stories, songs, and histories passed on to younger generations, but no written forms. With the extinction of a language, an entire culture is lost.

What if one, day you wake up and realize no one understands your language ? there's no one who could converse in your mother tongue ? isn't it a drastic as losing own mother ? This is very relevant to India, where every 50 kilometers new language is spoken. Irony is that, language were born when population was small. Now, languages are dying as population is exploding.

Every 14 days a language dies. By 2100, more than half of the more than 7,000 languages spoken on Earth—many of them not yet recorded—may disappear, taking with them a wealth of knowledge about history, culture, the natural environment, and the human brain.

See how many languages are in the way-out of extinction !

Daredevil from old era !

Imagine this, you are walking by a busy street and spot few robbers trying to break open a jewelery store's glass door. What would you do, if they are at six in numbers ? will you run away ? will you take a video to showcase it to your gal and display your heroism that you shot a live robbery video ?

You saw 'Dare-devil' other day. And you always wanted to wear a black mask and fight crime, the moment you saw 'Dark-knight'. Now you have the chance, to prove your worth and your gym training.

Your heart says ; 'go do something, fight the crime'. Naa, you don't want even to remove iPhone mp3 ear buds. As usual, modern-societies ignorance, selfish living, self-centered ego, an urgent-work reason comes to help you escape from the scene. You weigh options, as you weigh on salary negotiation table.

I don't know for sure, what I would have done in that scene but I may not be different than you since I am a passive receiver of your thoughts !

I got to watch this amazing video, an Old granny fends Off Jewelery Robbers with amazing grit. It could have endangered her life. She is safe and secure now. Police have confirmed that one man was arrested at the scene and three more were arrested later. I whole heatedly admire her gut !

This might be just another robbery video in modern society which paves way for disproportional assets amassing and raising societal divide.

This has tickled somewhat strange thoughts inside my mind; when she knew that she is too old to handle came to fight young evils of society ? was her behavior in teen days, ever thought of making quick bucks ? was she idealistic all through ? if yes, how in such a modern 'got-to-go' society she has maintained moral all through ? have values changed ?
