Yay!! Made it through till here with all the rambling I could have possibly done! Let me not get carried away by this number. Rather, let me share some thoughts that's been making noise in my head for quite a while.
You must be well versed with the notion of "world peace" and its harbingers. I think it is just a dead end to whoever thinks it can be achieved. The notion of world peace is just a facade to keep some people busy with their work. Once in a while we can all say that it is a milestone that will be achieved someday. I feel that day will be the end of the world; that is the best way for world peace.
Why?
For centuries, human beings have not been able to co-exist with each other. They always fight for anything and everything. They are never satisfied of what they have and they can never be sure of what they want. Their ideologies will always clash and every day a new one will come up with an imminent threat to those who thinks otherwise.
Animals co-exist in a much better way. They keep to their share of food and water. Once their stomach is full they walk on. If they were like human beings, one of them will brainwash a few and make a group. Then they will take over all the natural resources. When that gets over, they will invade the next region and destroy everything there. When everything is over, they will fight among themselves so that one who survives can die the miserable death in its lone existence.
We crucify those who want to change the world and later worship them for centuries. Are we dumb? or Are we so ignorant in our deeds?
Thousands of years have gone by. We have destroyed many parts of the world in our search for balance and harmony. We have eradicated species that can never be re-created. We have dug our graves in our own backyards while we still sit in the front porch with a placard that says, "Welcome World Peace".
I dedicate this post to all those who are still putting their efforts to achieve this impossible task. Hope someday I can look back and say to myself, "You fool, you have been so wrong!"
Have a great week!!!
