Ever looked out of the train you travel in? What do you notice? Do you notice the empty wafer, juice, chocolate wrappers thrown by seemingly educated people like us..?
What gives us the right to simply throw our rubbish on the tracks that can be kept clean? Some people have the best excuse! This is paper baba..it will degrade...I'm not throwing plastic atleast.. Like hell! Thats like saying I'm not shi**ing on the road, just p**ing...
To some people this might sound like a school lesson of cleanliness..but what we forget is the simplicity with which cleanliness could come to us.
What makes us refrain from keeping the empty wrappers, fruit peels, ciggerette cartons, with our selves until we find some dust bin? Are we so frickin illiterate that we don't understand simplicity of it? Or are we just plain and simple indifferent to our surroundings, like its nobody's business? And then cry about how the city is going down and nothing can be done about it@!
One type of people are who decorate the city with their hands and rubbish (their own, mind u) and the others who are brilliant at this art with their mouths! They paint the town red..literally! Urgh! Its just disgusting how ppl can spit just about anywhere! Wel i being so offended simply do with giving the concerned culprit a nasty look...! A friend of mine doesnt refrain from using her tongue though. I really admire people who have such guts!
Its not about doing something that others are asking you to do, its about cleaning up your act!
Find a bin, throw the garbage, don't find any? demand for one...wouldn't you do that in your own home?
I couldnt help laughing at 'One type of people are who decorate the city with their hands and rubbish (their own, mind u) and the others who are brilliant at this art with their mouths!'
