Power.... Corrupts people???? or the other Way Round!!!!

Power

When I started writing this blog the first few words that comes to my mind are- “Give me the power”.. the famous punch line from the serial ‘Shaktiman’...

Everyone desires power, everyone on this earth wants to have unlimited power so as to have easy control on others.

Power can be in three forms-

ü Power of information

ü Power of money

ü Power of position

Don’t know which of the above mentioned form of power is the best, more rewarding or is more desirable. But ya, one thing is true that Power corrupts People.

Once the people have the power in their hands they think of others as their minion and start exploiting them. Also given access to powers wastage of resources is also immense.

Once should always save himself/herself from the ill effects of power, because if in future there arises some instances when you really don’t have power and that would be a very hard time of your life. When you enjoy power you also enjoy unnecessary flattery, support from everyone and everything you demand. But when power is not there people try to take return of all the good things they have done to you.

But there is the corollary also which says ‘People corrupts Power’. Well can be true. Ultimately it’s in the hands of human how to use a particular gift.

Hence, perhaps Power is not bad, it is it’s use by people which makes it bad.

To put it wisely, - “Not all people wish power, sane people stay away from it”.
