Sissy is an angry woman and i bet you didn't know. She'll be mad at something or someone every single day..
She will be angry because the other day she saw a poor family with lots of kids(and they are a happy lot,she mentioned) in the streets waiting for the bus.She is mad (and all the while i was wondering why she was angry if they looked happy) because they are still so ignorant, hardly aware of their rights and are being exploited. She is angry because the lecturers are so biased in her so called "Social work" department, they still give higher grades to high caste students and to think they are doing a social service!! Sissy is angry that Brahmanism is still a live issue, still so strong among "modern" people. Sissy notices every details wherever she is...She walks by the streets and she is angry again!!! care to know why? The poor woman sells ropes at the Malviya market sitting right near the road and honestly, she says, who needs a rope these days? No one is going to buy it and how much will she even earn, and all these millionaires and billionaires are walking pass her...JUST ONE STREET, she says, BUT SUCH A BIG GAP AND CONTRAST!!!
Sometimes when i'm fed up of her anger, i would just encourage her or rather tell her straight in my "all-knowing,all-wise" attitude, "Get Used To It!!!"....but lately i have realised that i haven't got used to her anger yet. And i am still mad at her anger. Its easy for me to tell her to get used to all these realities yet too difficult for me to get used to her anger and honestly i am never going to get used to it!!!
Sissy has been depressed again lately and i hate it!! She came home from work some days back and told me that a boy in her class does not even know how to write the English alphabets and seems he is in the 9th standard at his Kendriya Vidyalaya school!!! it took an hour for him to write it and all his alphabets were jumbled up. She suspects the boy must be suffering from Dyslexia. Isn't it frustrating?
Sissy is so angry that many educated people are still so narrow-minded, she is mad about the emerging Classism in the society which is slowly creeping even inside the Church. There's got to be an end someday!! There's got to be an end to all the inequalities and injustices in the world just as there's got to be and end for Sissy's anger!! Maybe her anger will stop the day the world treats each humans as Equals.
