Sad demise of an Innocent!
Born on Wed 9/5/2007 4:38 PM on the floor of ‘the POND’, he could only survive a single edition. He was aptly called ‘Endeavor’, a young and handsome, first ever newsletter born into the process. His birth brought cheer in every face with promises for more every month. And there was so much pride and satisfaction due. He remained the talk of the day. Then, just when the time for his second edition was ripe, no one knew what the heavens had in store for poor Endeavor. Endeavor, at a snail's pace, waded away!
How could such a young, meaningful, promising and so charming endeavor just die without anyone’s notice..? Who could have killed him..? Where did he vanish..? Did he become a recluse and slipped missing into mountains..? Martial arts king Bruce Lee’s death remains a mystery until today, but at least one knows that Bruce Lee’s dead. Heath Ledger, the winner of Oscars for motion pictures’ mysterious death is yet to be answered. But news channels say he committed suicide. However, endeavor never died. Yet no one knows his whereabouts. Endeavor never retired. No, Endeavor never even named his successor…
Endeavor, endeavor! Where art thou? Whither goest thou? Have thy own people banished you? What follies lie to defile your very own name? Wherever thou art, endeavor, come hither. We love thee. Thou art worthy of adoration. You beguile us. Your people who gave you form may not be around, nor are people who inaugurated your birth with pride here. Yet, verily I say unto you, you are present even in your absence. If not in flesh and blood, you have been revived into our souls.
There may be others of indigenous pride, who may have replaced you, but you had your own identity. You set an example. The rest can only follow you, but not be you. There are thousands of ‘bruce lees’ around the world, but he was only one, and will remain the one and only one.
We dedicate our works to you because we feel right with you, we belong to you. You were short-lived but you awoke many from sleep. And so, whatever it is please do not lose sleep; nothing is permanent in this world except change. I could say, may be they wanted a change. However, none can snatch away your people from you. Now and forever, we’ll be your men.
