18th May, 2009.
Sri Lankan Government declared its victory over the rebel Tamil Tigers.
Amidst celebrations, it was our house-maid, Kamala, who came out with real words of wisdom.
She said "it is not nice to celebrate so much when so many people have died and been displaced in the road towards victory. People should also maintain five minutes of silence for all the lives lost in the process”
I couldn’t help but agree. But I liked this one better.
