Sometimes, I feel helpless about the mentality of my people. They study, they go abroad, they work hard, they sacrifice, they complain, they make money, they spend it, they marry, but they don't get time to spend with their spouse, they raise children and educate them and then, they send them abroad. During the old age, they wait for their children to come on leave, and struggle alone with all the problems that old age brings.
I am writing this because today I heard problems faced by women in Gulf countries. I am anguished because I don't understand or may be I fully understand why people need to leave their loved ones and go abroad. I wonder why people of Kerala and India need to serve the Americans, Europeans and Arabs to get money. Why can't they serve Keralites and get money for that? Are keralites any less deserving or any less humans than Americans or Europeans? For sure, malayalis are far better than the Arabs. Then,why can't the young people be with their loving parents and grand parents when they are lying paralysed? Why can't lakhs of Malayalis be with their children to see them learn to walk and speak and to hold their hands when the children need that support? Why do malayali women need to sell their flesh to the anilmals abroad?
Why do people think that to live we need to adjust with these kinds of injustice?
I teach English. Therefore, I get many adults who work, or have worked abroad. One of my students lost his business worth millions of Rupees in gulf because his sponsor cheated him. My students tell me their sufferings.
There is a term called wage slavery. It refers to those people who work for others for a wage /salary.
We all think that the days of slavery are over. However, the fact is that slavery is alive and more widespread than ever in the form of wage slavery. There isn't much difference in the effects of the old slavery and the wage slavery on the life of slaves. The only difference is that in the old period, people easily recognised a slave and everyone was well aware of slavery, whereas today a slave is not easily recognised. Fossil fuels, Electricity, development of machines, brain washing in the form of modern Education and modern means of entertainment like TV have successfully made us clueless and confused about reality.
The tragedy is that we don't even know the existance of slavery among us and that we are wage slaves.
Money, international finance, words, psychology, sociology and even religion along with all human knowledge are being used to make us work for the elite, be they in India or in Europe or anywhere in the world.
We are being educated to work for somebody else. We are made helpless to face the world alone. We lack the courage, desire and the ability to live as free people. We are divided and sent to many parts of the world in the name of labour mobility. We fight for small things and our minds get trapped in those small things and we never think about the larger picture or big things. As children, we all have the ability to survive on our own, but in schools and in society, we are taught that we can't survive independently. Our natural abilities are taken away and we are forced to work as wage slaves. The worst thing is that no body is giving attention to the fact that we all are turning into slaves. We don't even know that we are wage slaves.
I shudder when I see our leaders competing to make more malayalis wage slaves.
Dear Friends if you really love yourself, or your loved ones or your country or your God, then stand up and refuse to work for others for salary. You lose out in every way when you become a wage slave. Be your own boss. Start your own work. To start your own work, find out the things that the people around you need and train yourself to give that. Then, serve your people in Kerala. You will have to face many problems but mate, this is our place and what is life without struggles and we are fighting for our people's freedom, life and dignity. You will be able to help your loved ones whenever they need. More important is that you will be able to stay with your wife, children and your parents. What life is better than this? Come on, there is a great life waiting for you if only you would show the courage and the wisdom to tear away the lies put on your eyes.
People of Kerala are the Best. We need to wake up and realise that we can become rich by serving our people. It is a propaganda that we need to serve others to become rich. Friends, we are not born for wage slavery. Don't waste your life. Open your eyes.
IF WE WORK TOGETHER THEN WE CAN FIND SOLUTION FOR ANYTING.
