Why the world is headed to the World's End


Hey, it's simple... Don't tell me you never thought about all this......

The world is headed to the dogs
The world has gone crass and is full of crap stuff
The world is headed to its end.....

And the other half....

Everything is brighter
The world is shining (:P)
We are going to head to many more such Earth's.... and grow more superior (!)

Sick.....

I would kindly request everyone to leave the world as it is... and bother about more down to earth (pun intended) stuff and live as much as they can in this little little span of life.....

Any of you there who is disgusted by what you are facing each day.... please join the club....

I really can't understand how certain things have become accepted facts in here....
> Education is sold.... the higher the bidder... the better the course....... the better the score.... the better the future!
> More the willingness to pay.... better the treatments in hospitals and health centers .....
> If you can spare money.... maybe you can have better vacation packages and better access to hotels and resorts.....
> If you can deposit(!!) money in the institution you are guaranteed a job... irrespective of whether you graduate or you don't
> If you have a higher bank balance and a plum job then you are eligible to get a better life partner.... whether you will like them or not.... ofcourse you are free to have any illicit affair later.... as long as you have money.....
> Maybe if you donate more to temple trusts... you can have a special close and earlier interaction with God... who will supposedly shower you with "prasadams" and blessings that the idiot masses can't easily deserve....
> Maybe if you can specify your social standing in society, you can claim certain advantages and pleasures that not everyone is eligible to.....

Bah!...... can it all get dirtier?

And you commit a crime..... no problemo! ... you can wriggle through it all.... Money speaks after all..... Else, even if you can't get out without a prison stint.... you still get sentences reduced and "A"class prison cells.....


World's End...... Money will speak as long as you can't shout over it..... someday when someone does.....

A Lazy Sunday..... And Rush Hour

(Mail supposed to have hit the blogs on Sunday.... but happening only today......)

Yet another Sunday.... Woke up too early and then shot back into bed... then woke up too late for classes....
Stayed back home, much to the disapproval of my parents.... Come on, cutting on a C# class isn't a sin.... so long as I catch up later.... I smile.... And then frown..... Nothing worthwhile to do.....
Checked mails... nothing interesting in there....
Read the newspaper.... too much trivia and too less real news.... World's changing....
Been more than 2 decades that I have been around here and now, out of a jolt, I realize that things are changing??!?
Too much concentration on fashion and frolic....
I remember... just a week back.... I had this India Today edition in my hand and was sitting shocked.... on finding that the cosmetic market is now targeting the age groups between 12 and 18.... teens.... adolescents.... kids???
A wee little fear arose.... did that mean that really kids were into all that stuff that was said to be in there already?
Why would any sensible parent allow a kid as young as 12 to go in for laser hair removal? liposuction? facials? manicure? (man this had me baffled!) and plastic surgery?
What are we raising here?.... kids or miniature models?

Then it hit me.... yes, they were all models.... young ones.... actors.... at this age.... and it gave them a high to undergo these and get money and go more tech savvy and fashionable out into the streets.... headed to.....

Headed to nowhere?

And what happened to the kind of childhood that a decade back we had??

I can imagine what is going to happen next..... Everything is going to change.....

But what I can't predict is what the change is going to be.......

A start and an unseen end



Me becoming blog-o-maniac by my standards...... Wonder why I get these huge urges to blog... to sound off.... to pen down...... to type out long and short, crazy and creative (ugh!) and sick and sensitive stuff......


It started this way..... I was messaging people crazy stuff.... like why God needn't exist... rather proof as to why He (She) didn't exist.... and all the while... somewhere in the back of my crazy brain I was doodling with the idea that maybe if I got to rant off on this I could get clearer stuff into my brain and maybe at the end of it go satisfied and calm?? (chances in such cases with me are that I will get some other crazy moby-dick idea and rave on that)


Anyway, am taking the chance....

Infinite mystery..... Eternal Power...... Infinite Calm..... Eternal Kindness.....
God.....

Gods....

Him and Her......

Them.....


In case you think am mad.... I know it... so lets get to thinking something new....


I was messaging my two great friends.... Girl and Guy (names withheld due to ..... my want to with hold it :P)

"I wanted to ask God why He is so cruel..... Before I remembered that He doesn't exist..."

I waited for them to reply...

Sometime passed.....
Then he replied..... "Umm... you are right..... God is actually only the positiveness inside a person .... that whenever we want to reach Him.... we call on the positiveness....."

(Actually these weren't the same words.... yet the meaning remains........)

After that what we messaged didn't strike me...... I was completely engulfed in a long lost memory.........


Almost the same words.... but exactly the same meaning......

Years ago..... Someone I knew.... But didn't...


"There is no one called God..... When we work hard and believe in our dreams, goals, aspirations..... then we will get what we want......"

Snob! I thought then.... but a cute one....


Now, I cant agree more.......
