I Am- John Claire<br />
By: Tingneilam Lamsi Khongsai<br />
I am yet what i am none cares or knows.<br />
My friends forsake me like a memory lost.<br />
I am the self-consumer of my woes.<br />
They rise and vanish in oblivious host.<br />
Like shadows in love's frenzied,stifled throes.<br />
And yet i am and live like vapours lost.<br />
Into the nothingness of scorn and noise.<br />
Into the living sea of making dreams.<br />
Where there is neither sense of life or joys.<br />
But the vast shipwreck of my life's esteems.<br />
Even the dearest that i love the best.<br />
Are strange,nay,rather stranger than the rest.<br />
I long for scenes where man hath never trod.<br />
A place where woman never smiled or wept.<br />
There to abide with my creator God.<br />
And sleep as i in childhood sweetly slept.<br />
Untroubling and untroubled where i live.<br />
The grass below above the vaulted sky<br />

LAMHIL SEPTEMBER <strong>2012</strong> OPINION<br />
22<br />
how to work together, to become not only<br />
good winners, but also good losers.<br />
Thirdly, the statement that the<br />
battle of Waterloo was won on the<br />
playfields of Eton , implying that playing<br />
games and the spirit of sportsmanship help<br />
to inculcate lasting values, which make for<br />
good soldiers, good fighters and good<br />
discipline, apart from promoting 100 per<br />
cent physical fitness. In British schools and<br />
colleges, the fullest importance is given to<br />
sports, especially cricket and football.<br />
The result has been the creation<br />
of a healthy, well-developed, disciplined<br />
and efficient society in which people know<br />
the right proportions in life, put everything<br />
in the right perspective, and seldom<br />
conduct themselves in an unsporting,<br />
ungentlemanly and unbecoming manner.<br />
Playing the game on the playground<br />
naturally instructs people to play the game<br />
of life in the right spirit, which is what<br />
matters most, not victory or defeat.<br />
According to sociologists,<br />
society gains in many ways when the<br />
government encourages sports and games<br />
everywhere, provides playgrounds, the<br />
necessary equipment and other facilities,<br />
and rewards outstanding sportsmen, so as<br />
to encourage others also to play games.<br />
The crime graph dips, which means that<br />
the incidence of general crimes decreases<br />
because the right spirit and the right<br />
approach to things is developed on the<br />
playground.<br />
Sport, it has been said, is not only<br />
a manifestation of animal energy of<br />
surplus strength to develop more strength;<br />
it is, in addition, a safe and wholesome<br />
outlet for the aggressive spirit in human<br />
beings.<br />
Those who violate the rules, play foul<br />
or exceed the permissible limits, or indulge<br />
in tactics that are unfair, are promptly pulled<br />
up by the referee or the umpire. Anyone who<br />
refuses to mend his ways or to repeatedly<br />
violate the rules is ordered to quit the field<br />
and is replaced by another player. This helps<br />
to inculcate the habit of respecting the judge<br />
and of observing the rules.<br />
Some observers have contended<br />
that there is a close link between sports and<br />
a country!s industrial development and the<br />
general progress of society. That is why it is<br />
contended, most of the gold medals at the<br />
Olympics are bagged by advanced countries<br />
such as the U.S.A., Russia and Germany, and<br />
Britain too manages to bag a few of them.<br />
Of the eastern countries, China and Japan<br />
plunder most of the gold and silver medals.<br />
Is there a link also between<br />
performance in sport and a country!s military<br />
might? Militarily, China is the most powerful<br />
country in the East, but Japan, which matches<br />
the U.S.A. in industrial, especially electronic<br />
ad-vancement, does well in sports despite<br />
its small size. India is a large country of<br />
continental size, and given the proper<br />
incentives and the necessary facili-ties, this<br />
country!s sportsmen should do well on the<br />
sports field, but whether it is the climatic<br />
factor, the lack of adequate nutrition and of<br />
incentives, our sportsmen do not compare<br />
favourably with those of the USA, Russia,<br />
Ger-many and Australia.<br />
In any case, the relatively poor show<br />
of our athletes in international competitions<br />
does not weaken the case for encouraging<br />
sports which help to lay the foundations of<br />
a healthy, sound society. The cost is returned<br />
several- fold.<br />

both the educational and social points of<br />
view. More and more funds are being<br />
allocated for encouraging sports in schools,<br />
colleges and universities; in fact, sports have<br />
become an essential part of the curricula.<br />
Time was when only a few students,<br />
who were fond of games like hockey,<br />
football, cricket or tennis, were allowed<br />
special facilities. But now regular<br />
programmes are drawn up in all educational<br />
institutions to persuade as many students as<br />
possible, regardless of special aptitudes, to<br />
participate in games, and not merely watch<br />
matches occasionally to cheer up their<br />
favourite teams or attend the prize<br />
distribution functions at the end of a sports<br />
season.<br />
Educationists and others have come<br />
to the conclusion that it is in the interest of<br />
society as a whole that adequate facilities<br />
should be provided, depending, of course,<br />
upon the availability of funds, for games<br />
and sports for the country s youth, both boys<br />
and girls.<br />
Sports foster friendship and amity.<br />
Nor does the belief hold well any more that<br />
those who take part in sports or games<br />
would be no good at studies, and that each<br />
year their absence from the class or shortage<br />
of lectures would be condoned because<br />
they can either attend to their studies or be<br />
on the playing field for some game or the<br />
other.<br />
It is felt that apart from some<br />
exceptional cases of students showing<br />
extraordinary talent and skill in certain games,<br />
or students who are expected to be high<br />
on the merit list in university examinations,<br />
most other students should play one game<br />
or other, not necessarily for achieving<br />
distinctions, but for the sake of sport.<br />
Several factors need to be taken<br />
into account in this connection. First,<br />
physical fitness is of the utmost importance<br />
for everyone, young and old. Participation<br />
in games and sports invariably ensures<br />
good health, fitness and, generally, freedom<br />
from ailments of various types.<br />
Also, unless the human body is<br />
kept in smooth trim and in an overall fit<br />
condition, even the brain will refuse to cooperate<br />
after some time. Actually, physical<br />
fitness is essential for proficiency in studies<br />
and for winning distinctions in<br />
examinations. Ailing bodies do not make<br />
for sharp brains. Exercise in some form<br />
or another is necessary, and sports provide<br />
an easy method to ensure such fitness.<br />
Secondly, regular participation in<br />
sports provides a healthy channel for<br />
diversion of energies. Wherever students<br />
and other youth participate in sports<br />
regularly, misdirection of youthful vigour<br />
is much less and the tendency to indulge in<br />
indiscipline and mischief is curbed.<br />
Young people have surplus<br />
energy, and if this is fruitfully utilised, the<br />
foundations are laic for a healthy society,<br />
where people are fully aware of the need<br />
for discipline, co-operative effort, team<br />
spirit, the cult of sportsmanship, of joint<br />
devotion to the achievement of a common<br />
goal in collaboration with others. They also<br />
learn to cultivate the vital quality of learning

EXAMINATION FEVER By C. Lalboy Doungel, Shivajian<br />
Many people think that exam is the<br />
only time to get to know with books, and I<br />
am no different from this category of<br />
people who love last minute study-last<br />
minute hero! The adverse effect is<br />
stress,tension,frustration and panic when we<br />
constantly work(study) without a break<br />
during the exam; that brings us nothing but<br />
failure at the end. All of us inclusive of who<br />
we are wants to do well in life, and show<br />
to the world that we can do.But most of<br />
us don t achieve what we wish to because<br />
of so many reasons; and laziness could be<br />
one of them.sometimes I would daydream<br />
asking myself,how beautiful life would be<br />
without this word called laziness . We know<br />
what should have been done and what is<br />
best for us; but why still stay idle? lets boot<br />
out laziness from us so that we are not<br />
defeated or else we will be called Mr.defeat/<br />
failure even if we don t like it. The most<br />
exciting gala events(the KSO sports and<br />
Silver Jubilee celebration) is approaching<br />
and everyone young and old is exited! but<br />
when I think of the exam that is ahead I<br />
am filled with tension.WHY? may be, not<br />
beng prepared is one reason! There is an<br />
old popular maxim that says, slow and<br />
steady wins the race . However, it is not<br />
always applicable in today s rat-race of cutthroat<br />
competition. Rather a new maxim,<br />
fast and furious could be a better option<br />
(as I call it). Ask yourself, Am I using my<br />
mental ability to make history or am I using<br />
it merely to record history made by<br />
others?Lets remind ourselves regularly that<br />
that we are better than we think we are,think<br />
success and Believe Big.It is better for us to<br />
study in advance to avoid problems during<br />
the Exams. From the start of the academic<br />
year/session devoting some time to study<br />
would also help in solving all these<br />
problems as there will be no undue panic<br />
when exams have to be taken. Most people<br />
from Northeast and the Kukis in particular<br />
no doubt, loves to play Football than study,<br />
and I am no different. Regular exercise,<br />
playing games and a healthy diet are indeed<br />
important for us to maintain good health<br />
to do well in our studies.But our mentality<br />
in trying to maintain balance between our<br />
study and playing lies the problem because<br />
most of us in dept don t know the reason<br />
why we are here, if I m not wrong! Most<br />
of us are fussy about things that will lead<br />
us nowhere and the worst thing is we love<br />
doing them; and also love stories that can<br />
kill our time.And we are often the victim<br />
of the entice of the glamour world and<br />
find no time for studies which should be<br />
our main concern.The upcoming<br />
JUBILEE SPORTS of the KSO should<br />
not hinder us in achieving what we are<br />
suppose to achieve or else we become a<br />
ding-bat.If we want to be successful, let s<br />
stop thinking I should have started a<br />
month/year ago .Instead think, I am going<br />
to start now,my best weeks,months and<br />
years are ahead of me .Proving oneself as<br />
Mr.failure at the end can really hurt that will<br />
not even have a cure.lets take the chance<br />
now or else we will miss the bus. Better<br />
late than never remember this! lets once<br />
again reason together what our priority is<br />
before we run out of time. lets not panic.<br />
Time and Tide waits for none so let s be<br />
on our guard so that we don t cry in the<br />
End.

they still consider themselves a hero? Are<br />
they ready to apologies and accept what<br />
they did was uncalled for, or is there any<br />
guarantee that such an incident will not<br />
happen again in future?<br />
While the act is deplorable in the<br />
highest degree, cultivating the same seed<br />
of hatred in the minds of the innocents<br />
should be the last thing we should wish.<br />
Three Kuki Organisations came out open<br />
in the press appealing the people to<br />
forgive and forget the past and stop<br />
observing the Black September. The<br />
initiative is highly appreciated, while it is<br />
flabbergasting that they missed the very<br />
fact that incidents in history are lessons<br />
for our present and future, they are the<br />
milestones to build and mould our future,<br />
they are the strong and formidable<br />
foundations on our path to foster peace<br />
and brother hood in this context.<br />
The Zoupi incident is not<br />
something which should be buried away<br />
under the sand of time. On the contrary,<br />
it should be remembered as a symbol<br />
of inhumanity and that such an inhuman<br />
act does not have a place in a civilized<br />
human world. I believe there is every<br />
reason for the people of Manipur in<br />
particular and the people of India in<br />
general irrespective of caste, creed, and<br />
religion to mourn for the victims of<br />
Zoupi Massacre for we do not know<br />
who will be the Zoupis of the next<br />
Genocide of such intensity.<br />
It may well descend upon any<br />
one individual or community. The 13th<br />
September should be declared a state day<br />
so that Zoupi Massacre will not be a<br />
precedent but served as the Omega of<br />
such inhuman act and pray that such an<br />
atrocities should not come upon mankind<br />
again in future.<br />
Black September should not be<br />
remembered as a day of Hatred or<br />
Vengeance but as a day of Peace and<br />
Brotherhood. It is rather embarrassing to see<br />
that it is considered a Black day for the Kuki<br />
Community only, while it is a black mark in<br />
the history of Manipur and India. The civil<br />
Society irrespective of Manipuris, Nagas and<br />
Kukis should come forward and pray for<br />
the victims so that their soul rest in peace.<br />
The day should be taken out as an<br />
opportunity to ask the Almighty to forgive<br />
those daring humans who butchered His<br />
most valued creation (human being), way<br />
beyond the limit, another human would have<br />
the courage to even look at, for it is a tragedy<br />
which none would ever wish even for his<br />
most bitter enemy. We should realize the<br />
enemies of the Kukis are not Manipuris or<br />
Nagas or vice versa but our common enemy<br />
is poverty, illiteracy, and underdevelopment.<br />
The Day should be used as a Launch pad to<br />
send out a strong message that the common<br />
Mans need of Bread, cloths and shelters can<br />
be fulfilled only through Peace, and<br />
Brotherhood.<br />
And for now, Black September or<br />
not , the wailings of the Zoupi Victims will<br />
continue to linger in the hearts of many for<br />
years to come and it is our only hope and<br />
prayer that Such an incident doesn t descend<br />
upon Mankind again.<br />

WHY BLACK SEPTEMBER SHOULD NOT BE OPPOSED<br />
Kuki Black Day - September 13<br />
Mankind has different ways of<br />
remembering dates. The Americans<br />
remembers 9/11 in a different way, the<br />
Japanese remembers 6/08 differently, and<br />
the Jews remember the Yom Hashoah<br />
dates in yet another way. These are some<br />
of the few among thousands of such<br />
incidents which will never be forgotten in<br />
the history of mankind. These incidents<br />
took place under varied political,<br />
economical and sociological conditions yet<br />
they have one thing in common which is<br />
mass massacre of Human beings.<br />
Of all tragedy I remember, the Jews<br />
Holocaust stands out unique, never in the<br />
history of Mankind Genocide was carried<br />
out on a particular community with such<br />
intensity and frequency. Jews were killed<br />
just because they were Jews, neither<br />
because they did something wrong nor<br />
because their properties were envied.<br />
One can sense a huge degree of<br />
parallelism between the Holocaust and the<br />
Zoupi Genocide, which even after 19 long<br />
years still haunts the People of Manipur in<br />
General and the Kuki community in<br />
particular. One such Parallelism is both the<br />
tragedy trace back its genesis to the heart<br />
of a Dictator, who probably to quench<br />
an ego or enjoy the sufferings and servitude<br />
of a fellow human or for some mere<br />
political or economical objectives had<br />
carried out such a massive atrocity.<br />
Whatever be the reason genocide<br />
is genocide and there cannot be any better<br />
- Samuel Singsit<br />
or worse victim, a victim is a victim. The<br />
other aspect is the specificity to a particular<br />
community, in Zoupi!s case, the Kuki<br />
community.<br />
Today the Kukis mourned and<br />
remember the black September in yet a<br />
different way, while the perpetrators roams<br />
with impunity. It is even hard to swallow<br />
because the incident took place right under<br />
the nose of the Largest Democracy in the<br />
world boasting of its determinations to<br />
promote justice and fraternity. Flashing<br />
back to 19 years before present, on this<br />
very un fateful day Armed insurgents<br />
intercept a group of Kuki Civilians of<br />
Zoupi Village and butchered 90 people,<br />
with their hands tied behind, in one single<br />
day, women and babies included. The cold<br />
reminiscence of the ugly tragedy still visits<br />
the people of Manipur on this day every<br />
year.<br />
One is compelled to wonder what<br />
possibly could be the reason the<br />
perpetrators assorted to such an inhuman<br />
act. Could it be a vengeance of an untold<br />
Past incident? Could it be just one of those<br />
ugly tactics to draw attentions for some<br />
demands? Or could it be a show of<br />
supremacy or Muscle power? There could<br />
not be a better person than the very person<br />
who masterminds the act to answer these<br />
Questions which still floods the minds of<br />
every one.<br />
Having said that, the afterthought<br />
of the perpetrators is still a mystery. Do

Who Will Remember You When You Die<br />
Some people fear death too<br />
much to even think about it. They say its<br />
too morbid. But death is the one certain<br />
thing in life, and it s everywhere around<br />
us. A wise man prepares for death as<br />
ardently as he prepares for life. This way,<br />
when he dies, he would have lived a life<br />
worth remembering long after his demise,<br />
and not only by the people who knew<br />
him personally. Long after his body rots<br />
in the grave he would still touch the hearts<br />
and lives of people who never knew him<br />
or met him personally. Such would be his<br />
legacy. But not all are fortunate enough<br />
to live the life they would have wanted<br />
because death came too soon and too<br />
sudden. On the 13 th of September a<br />
nation remembered as the lives of a<br />
thousand of its own blood was cut<br />
painfully short by the hands of the<br />
adversary, unprovoked and unimagined.<br />
Their lives were snuffed out, their dreams<br />
brought to an abrupt end and their future<br />
rendered non-existent just because they<br />
happened to be a Kuki. And to this day,<br />
those of us who live and bear that name<br />
remember their deaths. We remember<br />
why they are here with us no more and<br />
we mourn their deaths. They have a legacy<br />
we mourn and cherish at the same time.<br />
In this way they occupy a hallowed place<br />
in the hearts and minds of the people they<br />
died for.<br />
We cannot exchange places with<br />
the dead and claim their place of honor.<br />
But unlike them we have the chance, while<br />
-Samuel Lamkholen Haokip<br />
we still breathe, to affect our society in the<br />
way we choose to. Whatever grand or petty<br />
plans the dead have are now reposed in the<br />
grave with their mortal earthly bodies. But<br />
whatever plans we the living have are still<br />
possible. Whichever way you intend to affect<br />
the society can still come true. Will you leave<br />
the society a better place than when you found<br />
it, or will you make it worse? Or, like I had<br />
said in an earlier issue of Lamhil, sometimes<br />
it s not just the things we do that may<br />
constitute wrongdoing, that there are times<br />
when doing nothing itself is a wrongdoing.<br />
Will you be guilty of non-participation?<br />
On the 13 of last month we paid<br />
our tribute to our martyrs who laid down<br />
their lives on that awful day. I m sure all who<br />
came felt the spirit of patriotism anew. Society<br />
remembers and honors them because they<br />
died. But now the society needs to remember<br />
you because you lived. Because you did<br />
something that made our society/nation a<br />
better place than it was yesterday. Because<br />
your children can dream bigger dreams than<br />
the ones you inherited from your parents.<br />
Because you contributed positively to the<br />
brand image of our society. Because<br />
everytime people remember you, you instill<br />
the spirit of patriotism anew. So what legacy<br />
will you leave behind when you die, or when<br />
you leave this city? The dead have their place<br />
in history and so do the living. And the living<br />
will one day join the dead. What will people<br />
tell others about you when you re gone? Who<br />
will remember you when you die?
LAMHIL SEPTEMBER <strong>2012</strong> 15<br />
and what it means to forgive. I think that<br />
the hardest people to forgive are the ones<br />
who are the closest to you. If someone else<br />
wrongs you, it is easier to forgive, because<br />
you most probably don t expect much from<br />
that person anyway. However, if someone<br />
who is close to you, a friend or partner for<br />
example, does something, which requires<br />
forgiveness, then it means that they have<br />
betrayed your trust to some extent. I think<br />
that the level of trust breached determines<br />
how easy it is to then forgive someone. I<br />
think if someone made a genuine mistake<br />
and this hurt you, then there is nothing to<br />
forgive, but if someone intentionally betrays<br />
your trust or does something even though<br />
they know it will hurt you, then this makes<br />
it much more difficult to forgive. Keep in<br />
mind, hurting people often hurt other<br />
people as a result of their own pain. If<br />
somebody is rude and inconsiderate, you<br />
can almost be certain that they have some<br />
unresolved issues inside. They have some<br />
major problems, anger, resentment, or<br />
some heartache they are trying to cope with<br />
or overcome. The last thing they need is<br />
for you to make matters worse by<br />
responding angrily.<br />
Biblical Perspective of forgiveness .<br />
I think, by remembering<br />
where we stand, by meaning our words<br />
when we say in our prayers each night<br />
Forgive our trespasses* as we forgive those<br />
that trespass against us. We are offered<br />
forgiveness on no other terms. To refuse it<br />
is to refuse God s mercy for ourselves. I<br />
think that if God forgives us we must<br />
forgive ourselves. Otherwise, it is almost<br />
like setting up ourselves as a higher tribunal<br />
than Him.<br />
The willingness to forgive is a sign of<br />
spiritual and emotional maturity. It is one<br />
of the great virtues to which we all should<br />
aspire. Imagine a world filled with<br />
individuals willing both to apologize and<br />
to accept an apology. Is there any problem<br />
that could not be solved among people<br />
who possessed the humility and largeness<br />
of spirit and soul to do either or both<br />
when needed? Darkness cannot drive<br />
out darkness; only light can do that. Hate<br />
cannot drive out hate; only love can do<br />
that.<br />
Some of the Bible verses, which<br />
talk about the forgiveness, are placed<br />
below.<br />
Matthew 6:14-15 NIV<br />
For if you forgive men when they sin<br />
against you, your heavenly Father will also<br />
forgive you. But if you do not forgive men<br />
their sins, your Father will not forgive your<br />
sins.<br />
Matthew 18: 21-22 NIV<br />
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, Lord,<br />
how many times shall I forgive my brother<br />
when he sins against me? Up to seven<br />
times? Jesus answered, I tell you, not<br />
seven times, but seventy-seven times.<br />
Matthew 5:23-24 NIV<br />
Therefore, if you are offering your gift<br />
at the altar and there remember that your<br />
brother has something against you, leave<br />
your gift there in front of the altar. First<br />
go and be reconciled to your brother; then<br />
come and offer your gift.<br />
Let !FORGIVENESS be a<br />
guiding principle of one s life and let us<br />
enjoy peaceful , physical and Spiritual,<br />
environment.

LAMHIL SEPTEMBER <strong>2012</strong> 14<br />
LET FORGIVNESS OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLE<br />
Forgiveness, I think is the need of<br />
the hour for strong and healthy society,<br />
family, friendship and association involving<br />
human relationship. If we accept the saying<br />
that !No one is perfect then we also ought<br />
to accept the fact that committing mistake<br />
is a part of one s life and thus forgiveness<br />
becomes essential principle of life. If there<br />
were no forgiveness and God has to punish<br />
for our each and every misdeeds, I hope,<br />
today, no one would be here on this Earth.<br />
Forgiveness is the<br />
renunciation or cessation of resentment,<br />
indignation or anger as a result of a<br />
perceived offense, disagreement, or<br />
mistake, or ceasing to demand punishment<br />
or restitution.The Oxford English<br />
Dictionary defines forgiveness as !to grant<br />
free pardon and to give up all claim on<br />
account of an offense or debt .<br />
Forgiveness can be defined as the<br />
foregoing of resentment or revenge when<br />
the wrongdoer s actions deserve it.<br />
Forgiveness is a very subjective theme and<br />
everyone has there own idea on who should<br />
and who should not be forgiven.<br />
Forgiveness can encompass many different<br />
things, from merely accepting someone s<br />
apology to helping them to find there way<br />
out of the situation they put themselves<br />
in.When you forgive, you in no way change<br />
the past - but you sure do change the future.<br />
Forgiveness is a virtue of the brave. I can<br />
forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another<br />
way of saying, I will not forgive.<br />
Forgiveness ought to be like a cancelled note<br />
- torn in two, and burned up, so that it never<br />
can be shown against one.<br />
- James Doujapao Haokip<br />
You will know that forgiveness has begun<br />
when you recall those who hurt you and<br />
feel the power to wish them well.<br />
Forgiveness is a funny thing. It warms the<br />
heart and cools the sting. To be a<br />
Christian means to forgive the inexcusable<br />
because God has forgiven the inexcusable<br />
in The truth is, unless you let go, unless<br />
you forgive yourself, unless you forgive<br />
the situation, unless you realize that the<br />
situation is over, you cannot move<br />
forward.<br />
I think, that to be able to<br />
forgive others, you have to first be able<br />
to forgive yourself. By this I mean that if<br />
you feel guilty about something, you have<br />
to be able to accept that you made a<br />
mistake, but you also have to then carry<br />
on and move forward. If you cannot<br />
forgive yourself, you will constantly be<br />
berate yourself and you won t be able to<br />
leave the past behind. Of course, you have<br />
to learn from the mistakes you made and<br />
endeavor never to repeat them, but it s not<br />
necessary to constantly berate yourself<br />
over something that has already happened<br />
and cannot be changed. Often, we are the<br />
last people to forgive ourselves. In my<br />
opinion, once you realize that you have<br />
spent enough time making yourself feel<br />
bad about something you have done, it<br />
becomes clear that quite often, others have<br />
long since forgiven you.<br />
Forgiving others is a very<br />
subjective and complicated process.<br />
Everyone has their own set of morals and<br />
ethics, which means that everyone has a<br />
different view of what can be forgiven

LAMHIL SEPTEMBER <strong>2012</strong> OPINION<br />
10<br />
THE WORST THING TO HAVE IN COMMON<br />
I had so much in common with a<br />
girl. She can relate to almost every experience<br />
and situation that I told her about. We had<br />
the same taste in almost everything. We grew<br />
up in the same locality and went to the same<br />
high school. Of course, this alone makes us<br />
just two among the thousands that passed<br />
out from St. Mary s High in Churachandpur.<br />
However, not many had a year break after<br />
+2, which we did. We both went to Delhi<br />
to prepare for an entrance exam. However,<br />
we lasted only three months there and<br />
returned home subsequently. Almost a year<br />
later, we both failed our respective entrance<br />
tests. We both hate DTC buses and had<br />
avoided it completely at the cost of many<br />
other luxuries. For you see, we emptied our<br />
pockets almost entirely on auto fares. We<br />
both were even hospitalized once; also due<br />
to the same complain - gastritis.<br />
We both preferred sugar-low tea<br />
to special tea. Everybody loves black for a<br />
shirt. So do we. But, we never had red and<br />
yellow before. Again, everyone loves music.<br />
So do we. However, there are few who like<br />
AC/DC and GnR. We both have been their<br />
fans, !Shoot To Thrill" being our latest<br />
favourite then. I was surprised, and upset as<br />
well because I love things, which I thought<br />
girls hate. We both enjoyed Chetan Bhagat s<br />
novel (5 point someone, the others suck) and<br />
The Big Bang Theory (though I ve started<br />
to dislike it lately). However, despite all our<br />
common experiences and similar tastes, we<br />
do not like each other enough to be more<br />
than friends.<br />
On the contrary, I had so little in<br />
common with another girl. We grew up in<br />
- Thet Thet Haokip<br />
an entirely different world. She had never<br />
been in my locality as I had never been in<br />
hers. Environment had a crucial role in<br />
shaping our psyche, personality and shape<br />
esp. during our childhood. After all the<br />
works of the environment, when we met<br />
at college in Shillong, we were already very<br />
different from each other. She was slim<br />
and tall like all her siblings, while I was<br />
bulky and short. God had given us free<br />
will but not free choice of genes.<br />
She is good in singing. So, she<br />
often sang in churches and always during<br />
our college outings. She even plays the<br />
guitar herself# I have never sung solo in<br />
church or anywhere. Simply because I can t<br />
sing# My career as a singer had ended even<br />
before it started. I was still young when<br />
this incident happened. I was at home<br />
playing a guitar, practicing the three chords<br />
I knew. I sang a song matching the chords,<br />
or so I thought. Then, an elder from the<br />
church came home and found me<br />
engrossed in that state. He remarked, !laa<br />
ahi tah leh!" Since then, there was no<br />
looking forward.<br />
It was astonishing to discover how<br />
two people can have so much differences<br />
and so little in common. Change is said to<br />
be the only thing that does not change.<br />
Likewise, I find differences to be the only<br />
thing common in all human beings.<br />
However, despite all our differences, I<br />
know one thing we have in common: we<br />
don t like each other enough to be more<br />
than friends, either!
LAMHIL SEPTEMBER <strong>2012</strong> KSOD ACTIVITIES<br />

WHAT ARE WE FOR?<br />
It was Sunday, 16 th September,<br />
and in the dead of the night. A phone call<br />
informing the Kuki Students Organisation<br />
(Delhi) executives that Pa Soson, KWS<br />
Gurgaon Secretary was received. He was<br />
in a critical situation at AIIMS Hospital and<br />
urgently needed blood donors. But those<br />
who were with him at the hospital couldn t<br />
give the exact time the donors should reach<br />
nor were they sure if it can be done before<br />
daybreak. But what was sure was that he<br />
needed help. Immediately! So the KSO<br />
Executives were in a dilemma as to what<br />
to do. Should they take those willing<br />
donors to the Hospital at four in the night<br />
and make them wait till everything was<br />
ready?<br />
That would be a punishment for<br />
those with the big hearts if the Patient<br />
couldn t land a bed in the Emergency ward<br />
because it would only be then possible to<br />
donate blood for the patient. We waited<br />
keenly for that to happen hoping the<br />
influence of our dear supporting nurses at<br />
AIIMS or that Pa <strong>Pao</strong>lienlal Haokip letter<br />
would be the life saver for the KWS<br />
Gurgaon Secretary. So while we waited for<br />
a concrete direction about the timing, we<br />
dozed off as did those who were ready<br />
to donate life.<br />
Nine in the morning, a call from<br />
the attendants at AIIMS was left<br />
- Thangminlun Hangshing, Jt. Secy. North<br />
unattended since there was no one awake.<br />
Again at ten, repeated calls finally awoke<br />
an executive. The executive searched<br />
frantically for the list of those life savers.<br />
A sleepy DU Prayer Cell leader handed<br />
over the list much to the relief of those at<br />
the hospital (He too apparently waited for<br />
instruction from the hospital through the<br />
night!).<br />
Finally, those on the list started<br />
receiving calls. It was possible that they<br />
hadn t slept through the night and dozed<br />
off with the dawn waiting for the direction<br />
to go to the hospital. In such a situation, it<br />
would be difficult waking them up and a<br />
search would have to begin all over again.<br />
Thankfully, nothing unfortunate as such<br />
happened.<br />
17 th September, close to 16 hours after<br />
the first phone call, five young men walked<br />
out of AIIMS Blood Bank with<br />
satisfac tion in the pleasure of helping<br />
someone they had never known before.<br />
They were David Kipgen, Letkhogin<br />
Kipgen, Ngamminthang Mate,<br />
Seiminthang Touthang and Thangboilen<br />
Haokip.<br />
Kuki Students Organisation,<br />
Delhi takes pride in those five gallant<br />
young students. May their selfless act be<br />
an inspiration for others!<br />

WARRIORS IN A DISTANT DREAM<br />
What has western civilization brought upon us? Obviously, we can say<br />
wisdom and development. But we cannot forget that it has been the causative factors<br />
for the attenuation of the old folklores, when we do was grasped the magnitude of<br />
the inevitability in following the doctrines of western civilizations and cultures, keeping<br />
aside the value of Christianity. Those who were born during the late 20 th century are<br />
fortunate for they might have been the last immediate descendants who can rekindle<br />
the folklore and happen to see the relics of our ancestors with their own eyes. Because,<br />
those were the years our grandparents who are in their late octogenarians or more<br />
happen to be the relics of our ancestors who could recount the legends of their<br />
fathers and forefathers.<br />
We all might have been told about the myth of our forefathers who had<br />
chosen the red shawls and rifles instead of a home land. In the present scenario, we<br />
might think that they were thoughtless of not choosing the home land. But the fact<br />
was that, they were supreme warriors and hunters who only needs red shawls to<br />
survived the cold winters and rifles to protect their hunting grounds which obviously<br />
was their home land. Alexander the Great once said, I am not afraid of a pack of<br />
lions lead by a sheep but I am afraid of a pack of sheep lead by a lion . We can say<br />
that our forefathers were all lions-liked with a scattering lions-liked leaders (chieftains)<br />
united with one purpose guarding their villages and hunting grounds. How did the<br />
Anglo-Kuki war of 1917-1919 instigate the rebellion? Exhuming deeper for the clue,<br />
we will only conclude that the British has a fear and already knew the efficiency of our<br />
forefathers as a warriors and so on persuade them to fight in their fronts against<br />
France during the First World War. They might act like savages as warriors and hunters<br />
do, but the strongest strength of their might was only the reasons of unity and fraternity<br />
among them.<br />
The way of life our forefathers had live the way they hunt, the way they<br />
dance, the way they sing, the way they recite poems, the way they grieved and mourned<br />
for the death. We are all yearning to see them, but by now the folklores of our<br />
ancestors only belong to stories at these times of our years. The western civilization<br />
that the British had brought upon us only became the necessary evil for very much of<br />
our younger generations. The generations of nowadays are only the specs in a shadow<br />
of our ancestors with no more unity and fraternity, with a bunch of lions lead by a<br />
sheep as it was in the context of Alexander the great. Yearnings for life that our<br />
folklores had shimmers, I might want to do the same again and live the life of warriors<br />
and hunters or live the life of savages or whatever the case it was during the past, these<br />
wisdoms only belongs to legends and only in the forms of stories today. No matter<br />
how much I want to take my part again among them, it only became a distant dream.<br />
