#twitter I love you!

One night I was reading The Hungry Tide by Amitav Ghosh. I was enjoying the book so much that I tweeted about it. And I was elated to find a reply from the author. I just loved the sponteinity and the reach of Twitter. No other social media in my view helps in connecting with opinions and brainwaves of your favourite icons better than Twitter. It really pains me to see Twitter struggling. Because I really love Twitter.

Why is Twitter struggling? I guess it needs to explore different revenue streams and not just depend on advertising. Also I'm aghast that it is finding it difficult to find a suitable buyer!

Twitter, according to me, has taken the concept of 'breaking news' to a different level. If there is an earthquake I look at Twitter for updates as withing few seconds there are details available. The large media and publications have a huge opportunity in Twitter. It's the most instant way to reach the whole world.

Most celebrities are active on twitter. Any gossip magazine or big entertainment labels should jump at the opportunity of owning twitter. There are so many billionaires in this world who should be interested.

Bodies like UN, WHO should be running their campaigns on Twitter. Governments and political parties and launch services and promote their ideologies n twitter.

Companies like Amazon could integrate twitter in their marketing and e-commerce in a big way. I would love to order goods and services over a tweet in the future.

The opportunities are endless. I feel twitter is one of the greatest inventions that has taught mankind to speak their hearts and communicate their ideas in 140 characters. Twitter has a great tool they just need to find a niche and market themselves right. And not just try to blend in with the herd like any other social media platform...

Come-on Twitter you can do it....

The power of travel

We don't meet people like Columbus anymore. Someone who risked everything to travel and find Newlands. Virgin territories for humanity. Today we are so obsessed with our gadgets, that we are moving away from the real world. We are not travelling enough. We are not aware of our surroundings.  We are not one with nature anymore. I'm worried. Are you?

Plastic world!

We stopped being nomads ten thousand years back... And like stagnant water, our decay started. We formed boundaries that never existed before But we became the prisoners within them We let greed take over and we started finding joy outside us God was within us but we looked outside We became obsessed with winning We started killing for fun We chose to be cruel when we should have chosen to be kind We chose to kill when we should have chosen to collaborate We became a society full of plastic A society that glorified materialism A society that was dying from within A plastic world Will we ever come out of this plastic world? No one knows for sure Let's enjoy the nature what's still left Before we might start paying for the air we breathe We are dying as a race We are killing our own selves by eating junk and filling out minds with junk It's got to stop now We must turn back to nature and become free We must return to innocence For happiness and liberty

Warring for peace?

May seem like an oxymoron but that's exactly what we smart human race is doing. We need to look within ourselves to find light. We are all sinking the planet to depression with our fears, negativity, stress and greed. We were so much happier with little. We lived in the moment. Now we live in insta reels. We are going in the wrong direction as a race in the speed of light with no return  Only God can help us. We are so keen to destroy ourselves. May there be sanity to end suffering and may there be peace and happiness for all humans. Help us God. Bless us with your grace. We need you more than ever. Only you can save us God
