Fighting for Our Rights

I encounter been dish to many movements and many campaigns that involve rights of those concerned. Human rights, zoology rights, womens rights, child rights, minority rights, prisoners rights, right to freedom, right to education, right to potable water, right to fight, right to eat, right to sleep, rights of the immemorial, rights of the marginalised, rights of refugees and war victims, rights of these and rights of those, rights of the left and rights of the right, etc,etc.The refer is endless. It is not my intention to mock those who are suffering and those whose rights have beendeprived further I at multiplication wonderwhy the activists and concerned souls who are serving the deprived dont want to delve into their testify duties and the duties & responsibilities of those whoserights they reckon to support, uphold and protect.For after all, rights and duties are the two sides of the same coin, just as remembering and forgetting are The conundrum has assumed such(prenomina l) epic proportions in the West that parents are even scared to punish their own children for fear of invoking the wrath of the child rights activists who seem to forget that in the long run a indisputable amount of discipline is good forthe children whose rights they appear to support and vouch for. I therefore presume they have never heard of the saying spare the rod and spoil the child.The lack of discipline, respect and determine whitethorn all be attributed to this forgetfulness of duties. I am all told in favour of animal rights and defend the natural environment of animals but let me tell you about a champion of the environment and animal rights whom I had the misfortune of meeting during my sojourn in Chennai. The person in question is an illustrious character with undisputable credentials but if you were ever to walk into the office of the aforementioned you will find that the bureau the staff there are treated is worse than the way animal haters would treat an animal. This person has completely forgotten that it is not only our certificate of indebtedness to protect animals but it is besides our duty not to treat humans equivalent animals. Not only do we have to take care of theenvironment at large but we should in addition realize that we should provide an ideal environment for our subordinates to work, grow and flourish. Im not talking besides of the physical environment but also of the environment wherein the individual employee is treated humanely so that he or she realizes that it is their duty to work harder and serve better.I am also a firm worshiper in the right of children to good and quality education but I do conceive that it is also the duty of these children who are provided this quality educationto treat their teachers, parents and the general publicwith respect and love. I believe in the rights of the aged but I cannot simply acceptor forgive those aged who during their better and younger days failed to fulfill their duties as a parent and therefore do not obtain the love or respect of their children who accordingly disown them and abandon them to their ownends.I believe in the rights of war victims and refugees but I alsobelieve that it is the duty of such victims and refugees to ensure that they respect their aggressors and also respect the laws of the host country that provided refuge rather than turning into a fifth column within the host country. I believe in the right of all to continuous supply of potable water but I also believe that it is the duty of allto ensure that they do not pollute the water source and damage the water table. I believe in the rights of minorities but I also believe that it is the duty of the said minorities to treat their majority brethren with love and respect.I believe in my right to believe in a lot of things but also believe that it is my duty to fulfill a lot of responsibilities. Therefore my dear friends may I beseech each and everyone of you who may chance upon this post to obtain and enjoy your rights with a soulof duty and responsibility for as I mentioned primarily rights and duties are two sides of the same coin. If only each one of us were to enjoy our rights with a sense of responsibility and duty, the world would certainly be a better place to live in.
