Heath Ledger(RIP) played among the better individual performances as The Joker in The Dark Knight than any I have seen. I still remember every instant he appeared in the movie..
There is this time he says(not exactly quoted) – ‘You see, these civilized people, their faith,principles etc.. vanish at the first sign of trouble’..
This is a part of a wonderful exchange with the Batman and this sentence struck me. A very strong statement but a bitter truth of sorts..
I was just relating it to faith. I have always felt that every time I am unwell, I always wonder what my throat/stomach would be like when its all ok. And at that point, I used to look up to the one above and wonder.. The funny part is that I realized that I used to do this only when things were not working – when they were, I didnt quite care..
until recently..
