Yesterday night I had watched this advertise by Aircel...again...(May be for 100th time)
But,there was a small difference
this time.
Manish (My room-partner) and
Prashant (My hostel room-partner) were there...watching it .. i don't know
their count ..
Manish and me have already
donated by visiting
Even though Manish uses Airtel and Me with Vodafone since last 2 years,we are appreciating
the effort by Aircel :)
But, yesterday, Prashant said
"This is all ****...nothing will help..this is all their money making
policy !!"
Obviously,our ego's were hurt and
so were we. :(
Then began the furious
discussion,... ,............, ......-----.......-------,
many things were said and many
were understood and many were rejected .. but..
we (Me and Manish) concluded to a
single point..
"I don't mind giving
1000/- to a noble cause,as it makes me feel good !..if that single moment gives
me some pleasure
and feel of satisfaction.. and
somewhere deep in my heart i feel i am right.. i am happy.!!"
As it is for sure..either while
taking Clothes,accessories,we would not have given a second thought for 1000/-
so why now ??.. and especially
when it is for some good reason. ??..Man..go for it !!..
The discussion ended soon as some
news channel started to show some stats about GOD (Sachin Tendulkar)!
But then ...after few minutes.. i
really stared to think upon it.. once more..
given a deep thought.. !.. Tried
to think more deeper..
And then found some lines that i
could share with you all..
See...Saving the
"Tiger" means saving Our self !!..
Yes!!..Not only because Tiger is
a great animal but it is also the indicator of the forest's health.
Saving the tiger means we save
the forest since tiger cannot live in places where trees have vanished and in
turn secure food and water for all.
If we make sure tigers live, we
will have to make sure that deer,rabbit and all other animals that the tiger
eats also lives.
To make sure that these
herbivores live,we must make sure that all the trees,grass and other plants
that these prey animals need for food are protected.
In this way, the whole forest
gets saved!
Saving the tiger means saving its
entire forest kingdom with all the other animals in it.
As we know forests catch and help
store rainwater and protect soils.
In this way we protect our rivers
and recharge groundwater sources.
Areas with less trees lead to
floods, killing people and destroying homes.It takes away the precious soil,
leaving behind a wasteland.
The soil jams up our lakes and
dams, reducing their ability to store water. By destroying the tiger's home, we
not only harm tigers, but also ourselves.
The tiger thus becomes the symbol
for the protection of all species on our earth since it is at the top of the
food chain.
So.. at the end of the day..if
it's your birthday ..if you are throwing a party @ Mac-D,CCD,KFC or
..where-ever..
Give a second thought if you
can.. I agree your friends might not be more delighted if you will tell them,
"I will give 1000/- from our
treat to Tigers and we will have only Samosa today !!" :P
But,i guess you can tell them
this way,
"Lets not drink 1 cold-drink
this time and save those 500/- which will be given for Save Tigers from all of
us"
and they might feel good..
After-all,these are all independent
decisions...
Meanwhile i came across this

All i can do is to give you the
link for the second time :) (As i have donated my part earlier :P )
Go on... !!.. Spread the word !..
Roar and Roar loudly !! :)
