Comparisons in times of crisis is bad attitude






































​​It would be hypocritical to say that money or material well being need not be or cannot be the common denominator for all aspects of life.


However, the trade off in terms of various parameters decide the rewards and remuneration. 

Parameters may vary depending on overall impact  of happiness that millions feel at an instant forgetting all their personal problems like when a sport star or an artist performs,  utility at a macro level like mobile phone technology or at various levels the following people perform doctor who treats patients, the unsung heros and heroines the teachers, policemen, military foot soldiers, nurses, sanitary workers, drivers, delivery persons, the billions of home makers ( who do more work for no pay at all) and so on.


To compare and curse at a time of crisis is bad attitude.


Having said all these, there are certain professionals who earn atrociously disproportionately and they must develop an attitude to come forward voluntarily to contribute atleast through their financial might to the less advantaged.


All these are not to be caged in the over verbalized stereotyped concepts of Left or Right but more of a free flying attitude of humanitarian concern.


I am surprised why hasn't she spoke about billions of dollars the religious places and people manning them earn in many countries across many religions.

These types of speeches are in bad taste and manifestation of pent of negative emotional anger  of an individual who may be right or wrong but at such crucial times it may trigger lot of unwanted politicization and sensationalism  instead of delivering practical remedy.



Every context and performer has certain unique roles and intense responsibility. If we are cutting vegetables, we can afford not to be perfect at first attempt but a neurosurgeon cannot afford that luxury.


A big football star may not even indulge in food he likes or afford  relax without physical exercise and training or have family time when he wants. Who knows how long he has been training and what are the things he had to sacrifice on the way up.
