This is high time to write something special. Very special.
It is particualrly related to this generation and this India. This is the generation, this is the India which has grown up having some beautiful moments which ultimately make a beautiful life.
It all started in 1989. No, it was neither Globalisation- Liberalisation- Privatisation nor terrorism. It was something different and it is something different. It can be said in two words, just two words, but it requires more than two decades to understand those two words. Sachin Tendulkar.
Cricket is a religion in India and Sachin is the only God of this religion. This God has been a great icon. He is such a great cosmos that words cannot describe Him. He is the matter to feel and to fill energy from within.
Yes, Sachin Tendulkar. Just two words. This generation has been living on this fabulous fuel.
This is so extreme, that as long as Sachin Tendulkar plays cricket, this generation will enjoy its childhood, the same pleasure without any stress of life. Yes, if one want its proof, one can just experience it.
And if ever there is any stress in life, if ever there are any blockages, then there is another inspiration. This is a role model of how positive attitude should be possessed, how uncluttered mind can be obtained, how unaurthodox i.e. out of the box and yet greatly efficient can be become, how this whole mess of universe can be simplified to straight forward attitude.... This is the inspiration called as Virender Sehwag.
This generation has been fed on Sachin Tendurlakr and it has received timely updates from Virender Sehwag. As long as Sachin plays cricket, this generation would keep enjoying its childhood and at the same time as long as Viru plays, this generation would enjoy its early college days. This is for sure. Because life is not counted in terms of years, months or days or success or achievements, it is counted in terms of moments. And these moments are really beautiful moments...

good blog but it's t-20 format.try next time one day format.
ReplyDeleteFew quotes from TIME magazine:
When Sachin Tendulkar travelled to Pakistan to face one of the finest bowling attacks ever assembled in cricket, Michael Schumacher was yet to race a F1 car, Lance Armstrong had never been to the Tour de France, Diego Maradona was still the captain of a world champion Argentina team, Pete Sampras had never won a Grand Slam.
When Tendulkar embarked on a glorious career taming Imran and company, Roger Federer was a name unheard of; Lionel Messi was in his nappies, Usain Bolt was an unknown kid in the Jamaican backwaters. The Berlin Wall was still intact, USSR was one big, big country, Dr Manmohan Singh was yet to "open" the Nehruvian economy.
Great post brother.
ReplyDeleteI just can't imagine a day, when Sachin will hang up his boots. I have not known a day when he is not playing for India.
You made a great point regarding our childhood being associated with him.However, he is associated with the Boyhood much more.
I read some beautiful lines somewhere. It said that Indians just cannot accept that Sachin is getting older. For them, he is still a boy of 16 years. They want time to spare Sachin and gift him eternal youth. This is so true :)
I could see your obsession associated with the "GOD OF CRICKET",which I by the way loved.All I was eager to see was a bit more of elaboration.Other than that everything was awesome :)
