THE MONSTER IN YOUR HEAD IS YOU

SO what did you think? They weren't really monsters, huh?

Ever since news did the rounds on the FIVE, coming out, people have talked about them. Easily the Thimphu hot topic was them. Most trending on Twitter, and other networking sites, ice-breaker at gatherings (social and otherwise).

Contents of conversation - all powered by hearsay, some with very accurate Intel, but some are,.. shockingly unbelievable!

Wine and women bring out some of the most deepest revelations from a drinking soul. And true it was in a bar (first-hand account), where a group of 'decent' working professionals were letting-loose the grind and toil of the week days. OR ahemmm.. they say its frustrations with a big F.

Inputs from many hinted that the said FIVE would probably look like actual projections from the Egyptian plague, some said they must be quite the withered husks by now.

What they probably meant was, they will look like heinous freaks of nature, zombified living-dead.

Sad, but true, it's just about seven or eight fairly knowledgeable country men and women talking out their ignorance here. Perhaps there are more such like-mindedness in town, in the country. SOS.. but the end is nigh..

A father and a mother were infected but their children tested negative to the bug because of early treatment. It's new knowledge for many and, more than a ray of hope for all of us gut-spewing maggots (reference is conditional:-).

For those who love the idiot box, so much, hopefully you have gathered some life saving wisdom from what you saw with your own eyes, in real time. Never mind what Sabita did to Kabita.. it's good to check on reality sometimes. Stamp your feet hard.. pinch yourself. WAKE UP!!


Let's take over from Guru Rinpoche... take our matters into our own hands.


Let's not use the moment as hard evidence to stigmatize, dramatize the lives of those who opened-up, to good intentions, and those who might follow suit. Let's not whisper behind their backs, Let's not stab them in their backs.

I didn't really get it, back then, when I was ten..ish when I saw those pamphlets with the UNDP & Health ministry logos. Message on all of them - EDUCATION IS THE ONLY WEAPON AGAINST..

Well, we all do now. More-than-do!

Personally speaking: Intuition is good, knowledge is better. Let's Go for knowledge..

to the FIVE - SALUTE!!!
