Exaggerations, extended
explanations in their enthusiastic exuberance, detailed descriptions spiced
with humor, anecdotes, quotes, catchy slogans, appealing short stories,
innuendos, and many other fine tuned rhetorical devices are important
ingredients of speakers and writers.
As long as they are able to bring
or connect them even remotely to the topic it is fine, even when they are done
with some hidden agenda or ulterior motive.
So, dissecting such works be it
music or speeches into pieces and analyse excessively and criticize too much
à la Subbudu may deprive the momentary pleasure of the performers as well as the
fans.
We must criticize, no doubt, but not
for things that they are not expected to perform or not responsible for.
Besides all these, exigencies
of shift in praxis of debate too fails to fit into theoretical or traditional
norms.
I remember a wonderful quote
“Get out of your own way… stop the
paralysis by analysis… decide what you want, create a simple plan, and get
moving!” – Steve Maraboli.
