aajkal

the title sounds prety boring naa, well it is bas yun hi:)this one is about the life and times of today and well maybe tomorrow....they say, the world is shrinking- a global village is in the making....well duh, the world seems pretty big from where i am standing...this is abt the BPL coexisting with the globetrotting rich, abt a ragpicker coexisting with an ambani, abt a dalai lama coexisting with george w.bush....and cats coexisting with dogs..lol
but then isnt this world abt coexistence....why then do we have a war on iraq?? why then do we have an arms race?? why then do we have sooooo many disparities that ur head actually starts to reel once u start thinking abt it??
is this going to be true abt the future also?? i dont knw, and if u dont believe in astrology or even time-travel for tht matter, then nobody does....
tis true the world seems unlivable at present, but u knw wht, i luv it!! it may be crooked, it may not be a perfect sphere- its still abt me, my age, my times....we crib and crib and crib and lust after wht we dont have- my only prayer is tht let not the future be soo perfect tht there is nothing to change- let it not be soo good tht man maynot deserve it...let there be flaws, the correction of which makes one want to go on...and more still; let there be one....
i dont knw hw we will get there- will it be peaceful or will it be violent?? will it be in equality tht we march or in much worse inequalities than exist today?? will it be as an enlightened race tht we march or as a species (in)famed for its destructive capabilities??
morover will it be here on earth or in a land far, far away??
maybe tomorrow we may yearn for today, thinking this to be perfect....think abt it..
