The Easier Route- Being Corrupt or Being Blue

Do we live to eat or do we eat to live!! I am quite confused many times may be all the times. The reason why I get confused is the priority given to all the other things in life, rather than giving the life the priority itself.

When a drop in an ocean refuses to be blue, does it make any difference!! May be not to the ocean, but definitely to the drop.In similar way, everyone's objective in the world is to live & if the the method to choose the way to lead the life is based on truth & ethical values by everyone, the might of an ocean will make a cleaner & safer world to live.

Now the big question is how to live? Being rich,being ethical,being successful,being popular,being austere. Everything you think can be achieved but at what cost is the next question. At the cost of ones conscience, ones moral rights, ones ethical values! One thing is certain for everyone, thats death.Only thing uncertain is its timing.If death is so certain, do we take along whatever we achieved,whatever we desired? Is it so important to achieve whatever we desire at any cost? Do I have to corrupt myself to achieve/or get things done? Is bribe the easier route or simply changing the focus an easier route.Now if every drop in an ocean decides to be blue,noway that ocean can look green. It has to be blue only. This holds true as someone rightly said " Denied Cooperation, even the most corrupt will collapse".

In my own capacity, I can deny cooperation as a first step.Next in case of compulsion, where I dont have any option, then I take help of other drops to make this ocean. I create waves knocking the right door. Staying in Bangalore, we have a good option in this case, as the news9 channel supports people who dare enough to call the channel, when someone asks for a bribe. Just you to dial "9980788999" and they will help you shoot the culprit red handedly.Don't turn green, if you have a chance and support to be blue.I am not scared of enemies outside my country , but my own corrupt countrymen threaten me about its unity. It is the same in case of any country for that matter. Lets join in fighting the common terror and lets be blue united like a mighty ocean made of tiny blue drops. Prefer the easier route, keep your conscience clean and objectives clean, the life will be easier and so will be death!!
