The good life!

We all dream of the good life
The big cars, the big houses, the fast life 
and grand parties
Fuelled by the trash society throws at us
In the name of civilization.

And we start running.
Faster, harder like fools
Chasing dreams that are irrelevant
But most of us realise that too late
When we are totally spent, emotionally and spiritually

Then we get the wake-up call
From the hidden corners of our subconscious
Questioning the usefulness of the chase we wasted half our life pursuing 

And, the mind wakes up to see through the clutter and trash we have been seeing since born

We start looking for ways to be happy as that is not a skill we learnt at school.
But we learn fast. Because we are programmed to be happy. It's in our genes.

And then the life changes for the better
We start living for the greater good
For things that make us truly happy

Little things that we thought totally useless
Becomes the centre of our life. And we start living, in happiness with joy in our hearts and smiles on our faces....just as we did as children.

Remember the childhood days? The innocent laughter, the meaningless dreams and the crazy ambitions? 

When we thought everything is possible?

Those days are not gone. We just stopped us from living that way. Let's begin again.
Let's be children again. Let's relearn, unlearn and recreate the dreams we dreamt as children.

Because that will make us truly happy.
And we can all live and die with a smile on our faces.

Humanity is lost!

We lost ourselves when our quest was overtaken by greed. First, we wanted to learn - the earth, the oceans, the skies and then we wanted to own them. We invented toys of mass pleasure and mass pain. We got religion and creed. And we got lost in all these. We stopped being the wanderers who wanted to cherish nature. Enjoy it's gifts.  We started challenging the almighty the creator. We lost. We are dying as a race. Dying with the burden of civilization that offers only stress and agony of loans. Sitting in one position we are destroying our body the greatest gift of nature. We don't deserve to be called the smartest of all species. We are the most idiotic of all. We are dumb. AI is taking over. We will be lost in machines soon. They are our future. We cease to be us soon. God bless us!

Oblivious to oblivion

We humans are getting more and more engrossed in things that don't matter and replacing it with things that do matter. We keep track of every new I phone model but we have lost track of the losing greenbelt and nature. We are killing everything that is keeping us alive. But we are happy to live now selling our tomorrow's.  It's a sad state of affairs. We are looking externally for things which are within us. And things which are external and unnecessary we are taking it internally - like peer pressure and loud lifestyles. Where is the sense? Where is the moral compass that controls our actions? Wake up humanity...before we are erased from this planet. We need the planet the planet doesn't need us. Let's not forget that, ever.

2020: adios amigo!

The year 2020 was cruel to most of us, but it taught us many positive lessons. It made us appreciate and be grateful for all that we have, and realise what we really need in life to be happy. It was a lesson needed for the world to reboot and rethink of its priorities. It reminded us that we have been making the mistake of using people and loving things when it needs to be the other way round. It made us realise the importance of the people in our lives - even if they are the people who do mundane jobs in our households and whom we tend to take for granted. It also made us realise that our wealth can't protect us from the virus or a calamity, but our fellow humans can; the great work done by the medical fraternity, the workers who helped us stay alive during the lockdown, was truly commendable. No words can really describe how grateful the rest of us are for these courageous selfless servants of humanity. I hope we have learnt the lessons and learnt them well as a race, as life ten...
