Reflections

My mother placed me in an educational institution when I was five, and I remained in one ever since! However, much learning is available away from organised set-ups. Sharing experiences is a wonderful human activity.

Macy Diplo Jr - Politician.

Macy Diplo Jr, my favourite politician.

(Act 1 , scene 1 – the background.)

Macy Diplo Jr was a very popular politician in Terminova, a sizeable country tucked up in the mountains to the east of the rising sun. Though his career was in its initial stages, it was generally accepted that what Macy Diplo Jr thought, said and done were always the very best solutions available in the prevalent situations. Macy Diplo Jr talked best, Macy Diplo Jr planned best, Macy Diplo Jr was everywhere all the time. His advisers sang in the same choir whose only main concern was to please him whatever the circumstances.

But judging by results obtained was an entirely different matter.

The broad smile stretching from under the left ear crossing to the right, that Macy Diplo Jr portrayed, no matter how grave a situation was, was reassuring and readily deceptive if not also captious. To make matters worse Diplo’s gift of the gab helped to expose elaborate theatrical elements, enabling the actor to conceal the uncertain reality of the country. Sometimes critics described him as a next to perfect actor off stage.

Macy Diplo Jr never really took decisions on the spur of the moment. There was a delight in backing the decision making process by lengthy reports drawn by the most trusted collaborators. So much so, that instead of researching a theme gathering evidence that led to a sensible and logical conclusion, the process was frequently reversed. Some referred to the process as a fabrication of evidence.

As part of the frequent festivities that marked the Terminova calendar of events, towards the sixth full moon of the year, a jester was hired to put an original show to entertain the citizenry.
