Insights,a few


The feeling of sitting in a railway station watching the trains pass by, the deserted platforms, long after trains arrive and depart, the same when busy ; can bring in a lot of realizations; At least for me it happened. Realizations?? Rather, I would say, it brought me to think what life means to different people(Pardon me if you feel most of my writings are centered around this; But life has so much to tell you, so much you can learn from; an unending process I would say ).

Why would someone who can speak understandable English and HEALTHY too beg for a time's meal? Is it not true that he is not able to feed himself or just a gimmick to earn money? You would get no answer unless you go behind him till the evening to find it out. Why do you guys (you doesn't mean you, most of you) walk away making a disgusting face when a eunuch comes n stands or sits beside you? Are they not human beings like you? Why are they treated differently for no fault of theirs?

 As the world develops or say advances with technology, people have lost their senses totally. How early would you get into a compartment by pushing an eighty year old man back? And how mean are you when you pull your luggage in a crowd such that it hurts people walking around and behave as though nothing has happened? Come on, if you are a rich spoilt brat, keep all that with you, at your home or travel by a private jet that your parents can afford to buy or I would suggest earn money and buy it for yourself!!

 I agree time and money serve as the most important factors of life these days, leaving behind love, care, honesty that were once prime factors. Reminds me of one of the Billy Joel numbers, ”Honesty …”.You rarely see people greeting others with a smile even when they know each other well. What is the use of a smiley on your Id tag when you are often seen with a frowning face? When you do not have your loved ones with you, what is the use of money that you earned, missing every little happiness in life? What at the age of seventy will you do with it, when you do not even have enough energy to eat? How will you find happiness in big things when you cannot even find it in small things, small as in your kid’s drawing; or relishing your mother’s cooking (Do you really have time for these?, you are really busy, are not you? Running behind something that is there in front of you and running late everyday!!). Live life this moment; In other words, Life is very simple, WE have made it complex by adding many a things that are really not needed. I would prefer looking 1 as 1 instead of (10/100)*101.Take it as it comes; Make it a point that 60 or 70 years into your life, you do not look back and say “I wish I did this/that” or “I wish I was little more kind and courteous to people around me” (Because now you realize that people around you are not, towards you). Certain realizations at certain point in time are really necessary.

 Cheers!
