The Next Simon Cow.

The Opera show and “Sex and City” are two shows that keep me glued to television. It was during breaks that I happened to see a few add of American idol and Simon Cow. I could not believe if this guy was real. “Atrocious” was only word that came in to my mind. But he had something so lovely that I wanted to steal it away from him. He had power to speak his mind and heart out, right into television screen. Next I happened to watch his interview on Frakinson. Boy, this guy was for real! As a kid people called me rude, my fault, I used to speak my mind out. In life we normally have two roads ahead of us, as Robert Frost beautifully portrays in “The Road Not Taken”. The answer to any question is mainly “Yes” or “No” but in today’s modern (Diplomatic) world we tend to find or create a path that is somewhere in between. A path that neither says “yes” nor says “no” and somewhere down this path we loose our own wishes. We become a part of exciting circus. In modern corporate world that we live in it’s always good to be a “good listener”. How many times haven’t you wanted to scream and say “No I don’t like this”, “This is crap” but have ended saying nothing? Some have also spent their life thinking “My turn will come someday”.
