Random Thoughts

Today is May 17. More than half the month is gone. Feel like time nowadays moves very fast. May be in the speed of light. Though it is little exaggerated.But its true. Once Monday comes within no time Friday also comes and two days which you call as weekend. On those two days you just wonder what shall I do or how can I spend this weekend. Before you reach on some conclusion its sunday night and you are opening your eyes on another Monday morning. And my weekend was also not so different from this. I too wasted my weekend with plans and thoughts but not putting anything in practice. Let me talk about something seems to be useful than just blabbering about how futile my weekend was.

May is the month in which lots of results are announced, the ones which may change your future upside down. Tenth and plus two results are out. I think CBSE results are yet to come.I am not much aware of CBSE happenings since I did all my schooling under state board. Now when I look back those were the days when you eagerly waited for the rank holders who scored the highest and stars among their friends.I used to read all the interviews given by the toppers though everytime they used to tell the same winning strategies, motivations and their goals in different voices with different faces.But now the authority has scrapped ranking system saying the ranking system contributes a lot of pressure to the student community and leads even to suicides. I really don't know how by just removing the ranking system we can reduce the pressure on students especially in the current scenario where the parents want their wards to secure first place among everywhere not only in studies but in extra curricular activities also. Today summer holidays are no more holidays but an opportuinity to train the kids for next standard or in some other activities with skilled trainers in all the fields. It has a schedule just like your school. So what's the use of having vaccation if you can't play and have fun or just chill and relax in the "hot sun"?But you can't turn your back from the reality then you will be behind this rat race. The motto of today's world is survival of the fittest and if you want to survive there is no other choice left out. Cool.. When I started writing I didn't have any idea what am I going to write, just started. But now feel good.And one question to you? Do you support ranking system? If you ask me I ll say I like ranking because it exists in all ways of our life whether you like it or not in some or other form. Then why can't you prepare for it from childhood.Ofcourse I oppose the blind competition without any concern for the fellow beings. But a healthy competition is always good for all.
