…Mumbai, I still prefer Bombay. Yes, it is I who prefers it as a Bombay. However, ‘I’ is just an alphabet: a vowel to be precise which like any other alphabet is lost in a torrent of twenty five other inscriptions. ‘I’ is a special epistle, a fact most of us are aware of, but ‘I’ like any other alphabet is not the most important glue that binds the written sensibilities of the written language.
‘I’ as a sovereign word speaks for itself; it speaks for you not to mention the ME and MYSELF. It doesn’t really help, other than giving others the inkling that YOU are an arrogant brat.
Politically speaking and socially rationalizing; Democracy nurses the infant individuality and that individual sucks at the sovereignties teat. When my idealism pushes me away and leads to me the temptations of a socialistic or communistic identity then that would be the result of a sovereign limitation. Hence, “I” am greater than the very knowledge of your peripheral existence.

In democratic country like India sovereignty is held by the people. This is known as popular sovereignty so how can you say that “You” as an arogant brat. This is a general perspective, be rational.Your view is contradictory .Either “I” has a will and is in fact created in God's Image, or “You” does not created in God's Image. ”I” cannot have a view that man has a will at one time, then, “You” does not. Not even that “I” do and “
You” don't. The genuine sovereign will give respect to all other sovereigns, even those who may not be currently aware that they are sovereign. There is no asking permission to be sovereign. That does not however guarantee that the sovereignty potential has been actualized.
Amit!! kaisa hai be....
ok..
The Individual precedes any form of collective forum..even democracy..and u who believes in minority rights..have forgotten the biggest, weakest and strongest minority in the world..the Individual..
also what we need the most in a democracy is the arrogant 'I'.. who together form the assertive 'WE'..which we lack in our country...
