Mind your language
All of us must have heard many radio shows and pranks where in the RJ calls strangers to play a prank on a person, be it a request through the persons known or an unknown number picked up randomly. While most of them are a good source of entertainment but I wonder did we ever take a learning from them. Many pranks come across as direct learning’s as there is one or the other social challenge hidden behind while others become a learning by the way people react during such conversations. One common observation has been that off people’s language and words used by them. While the censor board is kind enough to get it replaced by a beep but for most of the times all of us know what’s running behind. It’s something that these channels still choose to publicize rather than being sensitive about and we choose to listen it and let the younger generation be impacted by it. Well this can actually lead into long argument which I am not really interested in at this moment for my motive to write this blog is different.
I am not sure if there are any human rights involved here and what’s the right way to look into it but just from a human prospective I don’t give right to any unknown person to make fun of me and put it on air.
Having been said that lets come back to the learning’s as of now. First learning is simple and similar to that mentioned in one of my blog’s month back which was named “caution”, mind your language at all points of time, remember you are being watched and analyzed. You are not only setting example of yourself as a an individual but also as a part or community. Second and most important learning is about having control over ourselves and test ourselves as to how strong a person we are, do we get easily provoked or influenced by others or have our own thought process and control over our reactions. When we become a source of laughter who is it whom we are holding responsible for it, a second person who has come with a potential to intrude in your peace of mind, or you who let that person be so important that he could actually snatch a piece of your peace of mind.
