The day of national mourning becomes a day of recreation. Young ones enjoy their day at home when the elders of the nation grieve. The very day of peace and silence becomes a day of hyperactivity.
What a PARADOX!!!
Here's an account on how the death of an exminister proved to be utter nuisance to a citizen.
It was a Monday when we came to know the death of an ex minister.Such days used to be declared holidays for all the schools in the land.Since the death happened on a Sunday the schools weren't sure about giving a holiday.
That day a mother was making her 6 year old ready for school.She dressed her up,packed her lunch and bag and went to drop her in the bus.Only on her way to the bus stop did she come to know it was a holiday.The girl so happy getting a holiday after her miserable days in school started doing all the mischief she could the moment she got home.First she pulled the washed clothes off the strand.Then she emptied the dustbin onto the floor, she spilt milk on the dining table, she scribbled on the walls, she screamed in the balcony, she turned the house upsidedown. She did the house in. Finally she got tired and fell asleep watching Tv.She had her time, her day of freedom...
Its fun to have little kids running and jumping all around the house.Its just that you get irritated at times.Anyways if she hadn't got the holiday she would have had to spend her time in school,and the fact that she got a holiday had called for trouble.
