The Dearth of a HOME

Friday, April 09, 2010 Posted by Vishnu No comments
Every living being including birds and mammals need a shelter to make their 'living' existing. Even the cuckoo which does not build a nest lays its eggs in the nests of other birds and the snake seizes the ant hills for its dwelling. All these natural occurrences signify the universal fact that you are the KING of your own home when you actually have a home for yourself. Imagine yourself living as a tenant and I bet you would definitely feel the difference when you are living in your owned property.

Doesn't it give the confidence that it is YOURS? Could your family or relatives come and support you personally when you are living far away across the seas?

Somehow I feel that most of the losses that the Deccan Chargers have faced this season could be accounted for the above mentioned reason. The Dearth of a HOME!

I was watching the game between RCB and DC which was held in Bangalore the other day. Every single ball, I heard the cheers 'RCB', 'RCB'! Even the batsman on the pitch couldn't hear what the non-striker was saying. Somehow, I felt that having a home ground would have helped the Chargers to win a couple of matches. It is not just the field conditions that contribute to the team victory but the fan factor is the main thing that boosts the morale of a player on the field. Well, the case is completely different if Sachin is batting, he would get applauds from every corner of the world ;)

All this started with the Telangana Agitation; it is high time that the government takes some decision on this. I congratulate all the activists in this significant accomplishment. 1st you drive all the corporate investors out, next is the turn for tourists. Doing all this, we might still be able to secure a separate state and ensure that the younger generation do not face the current problems but choosing violent options, we are also responsible for halting the progress of the state each day.

I then came across this wonderful campaign by the Hyderabadis, I loved the way they portrayed their love for the game; imagine someone calling off a Bandh for snatching IPL from Hyderabad! There was this article which supported my view :).

Those who are under the impression that T-state agitation is not the reason for IPL snub. On alighter note, I found this amusing video :P
