Don't Disgrace the Gods

Some believe it, some don't.some say they have seen it some even go to an extent to call it as a gimmick. No body has seen god but everybody has a different opinion to the almighty, if he is.
In my opinion most of us(especially Indians) wont deny from the fact that we have seen god incarnated in flesh and bone , walking the grounds and entertaining the millions that galore.
I am talking about none other than our little master, the golden boy who walked out in his first test match against Pakistan and from then onwards it has been a journey transforming him from a mumbaikar to a player feared by all his opponents. no body thought this little genius will bring a revolution in India more revolutionary than the green revolution itself, changing the face of Indian and for that matter world cricket.
He has transformed cricket to a religion which binds all of the Indians and for one moment we forget we have been brought up which father, under which roof. What matters is the desire to win and all of the nation for once consider itself as Indians and not as Muslims ,Hindus,Gujjars or Meenas,the feeling of unity is unpreceedent.Unity which even Mahatma Gandhi couldn't impart can be seen in a 7 hr game.
well i'm not writing this as another souvenir or another article on the little genius praising his accolades and achievements. My heart bleeds and its been a matter of disgrace that these sports persons(let it be ganguly or dravid) who have taken the sport to an unprecedented glory are now the victims of the acrimonious views of the much educated people to decide what should be the fate of these gods. Those who have unified each and every Indian under one roof are now on the mercy of the ones who once worshiped the same people for years and would die to get a glimpse of them.A paradox yet true.
In the process of proclaiming these people as gods we forget one fact that they themselves are made of bones and flesh, no one is immortal and hence aging is an inevitable process. I do agree that their form is not as good as it used to be when they ruled the world but lets not make a mockery of our believes and their contribution. These people at least deserve a better adieu then a forced expulsion or more like an IT firing.
Lets pay respect for these people who sacrificed their lives ,their families just that we can see Indian flag up above among the other nations soaring to glory. Lets leave to them when do they want to call quit ,let them cherish whatever cricket is left in them ,so that they are proud of serving us and don't end regretting .We just cant make castles on the grave of others that too of people who have contributed their body and soul for the better cause. Lets make it a point that we don't disgrace the gods , so the gods are smiling always upon us and maybe contributing after their retirement in the form of being Indian coach or as mentors of the future generation.
