Mentally Challenged!!

"If I were" is one of the most greatest excuses used by most. But this always goes only in positive sense. What is this goes with a negative sense? At a wildest of dreams, if you were not to utter a word from this moment to the end of your life!!! Considering languages spoken by more than thousands of people, there are nearly 6500 languages in this world. A normal human speaks nearly 2500 words per day (Obviously women more than men, any debates??) Mandrian, English, Hindi, Spanish, Arabic and Russian are the most used languages, Mandrian being used by the most. Each of these languages being used by a certain community/region of people. But there is a language which go beyond regions, beyond communities, beyond borders, beyond galaxies, the SIGN Langauge. WHAT IF we were to use only the SIGN language?? This language is not taught to us by anyone. This language comes with the so called "Human" package. Everyone understands this language and no-one needs coaching on this langauge.

I had a chance to watch a movie named "Mozhi" (In tamil means Language), may be inspired from he movie "BLACK". Keeping the story aside, all I was thinking about is how would a person live in this world having no power to speak nor hear. We call them "Physically Challenged", I call them "Mentally Challenged". It is all about how they accept their physical inability and how they grow in such a mocking world. They need to be mentally very strong. The most difficult part of their life is how do they express their feeling. Woman, well-known for their emotions. Can you expect a person who does not miss anyone, infact do not want to miss anyone? All she could depend on is her calm world around which never hears anything nor demands uttering a word. It is like a meditation. A real "Mental Challenge".

If we had to understand what it is, live a day without anyone without speaking or hearing. It is real tough one!! You would never be able to express how you miss the innumberable number of things in this world!!

If not watched, please watch the movie at least once. I bet the movie is beyond language barriers.

Seventh sense required?

One of the unique identifiers which makes us call it the sixth SENSE is our ability to speak. But there are moments in our life where our minds speak and JUST only our minds speak and NO words uttered.

How would a person feel when the girl he loves is being loved by his best friend? Would the person be able to share his love or thoughts to either his friend or the girl? I would call this as one of the toughest moment in ones life. Here is when one would be forced to weigh his love and friendship. Obviously both cannot be compromised for each other!! Can they ever be? What could the guy do? To whom should he walk to? His friend or his love? Can he exercise his identifiers of sixth SENSE? What should he compromise?

The interesting part of love is that it is tough to express ones love to the person he loves. There are hardly any words which could express the love one has. I still wonder why creator though created such an interesting SIXTH SENSE, but has allowed us to go through such tough moments where the SIXTH SENSE goes un-noticed!! May be a SEVENTH SENSE makes sense?
