how does it feel when you loose...
how about this... when you are much closer to success ( may be a step away from it.. )
is it annoying ?? nopes !! for me its devastating, i don't feel bad i feel worst...
frankly speaking i am almost all the time always up to something or the other until i know its going to help me in some way or another... one such thing is that i spend most of my free time ( apart from my hobbies which many people find wierd !! ) in front tv... lol but the only difference is that i watch only discovery or natgeo - love them... ( i feel rest all on tv are bull.... )
yesterday i got up at 8 pretty early for me :) and started working... worked till 1 pm. ultimately the pcb sketch for my new project was ready :)... i was happy that i saved few days of soldering :) then i realized the board was not proper i had to delete the .brd file and make again from the base .sch file. i deleted it... but to my horror i deleted he .sch file... all my work was gone :(
DEVASTATED...
oh... ya back to tv... so yesterday after this happened to me i was thinking about all such things happened to me... lots of them in my life... so was kind of habitual of this... then i went to see tv
there is this new series started at nat geo - 'jailed abroad', i dint know somehow i just love the show... one of the best i have ever seen... any way so this episode was about the girl lia mccord and according to nat geo -
"Eighteen year old Lia McCord wanted to go to college but her parents couldn't afford the Fees. The A grade students solution to the problem was simple, if a little naïve…become a heroin smuggler. But her naïve plans went horribly wrong and she faced the death penalty in a squalid prison in Bangladesh."
now apart from the fact that they had a really very cute and sexy actor ( Marya Leal )
try this......
or
for the girl here this story really had some power...
lets see... this girl was in need, had financial problems and all sorts of depressing issues with her, she was 18 and seriously speaking at this age all sorts of mental problems arise to most of us ( some for good an some for no reason ) and under such circumstances she decides to take a step for her future. believe me i can feel how bad it feels when you are capable of something but cannot do it just because of some fuckin financial problem ( she was straight A's ) or stuff...
so there she was,did what she felt was appropriate at that time
so lia went to this place to get heroin in the states... but later she realized that this was not good for her and tried to escape twice or thrice but she couldn't and was ultimately forced to do the smuggling... there was this instant when she bypassed the security check and was almost out of it and was straight going to the aircraft at the airport just when a lady officer came out and asked her to come back for security check. if the lady officer was few seconds late lia might have escaped, so from a few seconds difference and a step away from success she ended up into the cops hands... and after my incident i can very well feel how she felt! ... well a must watch series (episode) for all... practically u really get the feel of situation by watching it... :)
well... whatever be the reason she had done something wrong and she deserved punishment...
but here comes the nightmare, the worst possible, a 'death penalty' !!! yes there in bangladesh u get this for smuggling drugs... well she was lucky she narrowly escaped it and got an imprisonment for 40 years... and more lucky she was that she was out of prison in 4 years 6 months... ok some congressman rescued her... :)
but after watching this another question was raised in my mind... if somebody does this in bangladesh - 'capital punishment' and in US it is something like 5 years of prison and some fine...
does this mean that if somebody does some act like this in bangladesh than (s)he has committed a bigger crime than does the same thing in the states ( and how about the places where capital punishment is abolished ) ?????
does it mean ( crime committed IN bangladesh/iran..etc ) >>> ( crime committed IN norway/south africa/ italy ) for the same act of crime ????
i really didn't get much of it... but frankly speaking i feel something wrong,
either she was punished more than she deserved or the other people in the world are being punished less than they deserve. if its justice then why is it not same on whole earth ???
is justice bound by the boundaries of countries ???
sad i am still not at a conclusion to this question of my mind... hope to get it soon till then it will always remain in my mind !!
