Proud To Be In Minority Poem by Akhtar Jawad

Majority is not always right...in fact it is often wrong. I'm reminded of a quote that says...when you see people going in a particular direction, take the other way. A thoughtful n thought-provoking write.10

A man with an independent mind and intellectual prowess does not always tow the line shown by so called great men who have been idolised by history in the past, their words and actions could be relevant in a particular situation or a period but may not be justified in a changed scenario. Therefore, a man or a group of men, at times, rise above the crowd and raise their voice against the imposition of the old rotten order by a so-called majority which lacks a clear vision or a foresight needed today. Such challengers are no less great than pseudo-greats. ....for me, I am a great man, though for others I am an ordinary man, there are so many great men like me in the world.

A thought provoking poem indeed... We segregate people based on our own sets of criterias and we try to convince them to form a majority opinion. I join you to condemn all such false idols who for their own benefits ruined and divided this world. They might be Great in the books of history or books read and appreciated by so called majority but I an exception like you and not many like you.....100+++ for this fantastic poem.
