Once again, I heaved a customary
long sigh. My breaths have deepened over the years, for I have been running....running
away…from a trap. It is too bad to be caged. I have shed countless transparent
drops from my eyes, drops that merged with my skin so amicably that no one could
see. Even though my efforts had minimized my hope didn’t. So, I struggled over and over again so
I could break free through the cage. I dug my way out of the cage protecting
myself on my own. And ever since, I have been running. My feet need no rest. Once again right now, the
magnificent view ahead of me put me to a halt. I'm seeing a flowery meadow....
Its luminosity had been blinding my eyes until this point. But now I'm so
close to it that it is soothing. I’m picking up my pace once again….faster,
faster, faster. As the distance is shortening, my breath is deepening. Once I’ll
be there I won’t have to run anymore. And here I am. The scenery of this
meadow is straight out of my dreams….purple tulips complimenting the night sky.
The twinkling stars adding shimmer to the lake that side. Its luminescence is
enigmatic. This meadow… as if had been waiting to embrace me in its bounty. How is it that its orchids are more tempting than they have ever been
anywhere else? It was too good to be true. And then I knew...the key to the gate on the other end of the meadow is with the gardener
who has nurtured the tulips, orchids and lilies of this meadow. I am in fact an intruder into his
domain. With how much love he had nurtured the meadow, its magnificence conveyed. It is so peaceful here, warm and serene. I can here, again dare to dream. In my dream I opened my eyes to a trap,
but I am hallucinated. The meadow is fenced with
barbed wires. I knew already it’s a trap. If there is a chance to escape, it
is now. The gardener will come anytime
soon. If I want to live, I’ll have to wake up now. Trying later will prove
fatal. But I don’t want to beg to the gardener, I do not want to beg from anyone again.
I need no help this time. And I have no more energy left
to run again. I've shed countless drops and now I want to sit back
and relax. I just want to close my eyes and dream again. I am too tired to try to survive again. For me, death here will
be beautiful. And more importantly, the meadow is calling me back...
In a move that shook the ethos and established traditions of one of the crucial three pillars of the democratic apparatus, the Indian Judiciary, four most senior judges of the Supreme Court took to the public to address grievances that faced the institution.
