In this universe seemingly
populated by people, all you can find is noise, pollution, haphazard movements,
aimless motivations, unknown intentions, speeches that make no sense, tasks
that can never be fulfilled because most of us are just not happy doing it. Being
an Indian comes with a burden, a burden of expectations. This many times
distracts the actual intention of someone, what he could do with his life? Many
times it so feels that dreams, where one is successful are the reality and the
reality where one is a failure is a nightmare. All that someone could hope is
like any other nightmare this one too, would end soon. Perhaps, sooner if one
could be strong enough to take decisions.
Discussion with one of my
roommates made me realize how much damage Englishmen have done to us. They have
fed us and our minds to be a slave, earlier we were to them now we are to the
expectations of anyone who is above us. We no longer take decisions for
ourselves, and we are plain coward to be one who does. Nobody takes decisions
now, at-least not as soon as protection layers are beyond the question. After a
period of time, we simply accept this simple life, where all we can do is
complain. Our minds become nothing more than a trash box where we can’t think
beyond, we can’t think out of the box.
And because we can’t think we do
without a thought, we talk without a thought, we do not tend to improve and we
become rigid according to the reality. Reality with an adverse effect on us
makes us someone not ready to accept, not ready to discard and we all collide
with each other, we fight unnecessarily and all that remains is chaos, being a part
of which we reach nowhere, whole lifetimes are spent in that chaos and there
are moments of happiness amongst spans of sadness, while life was meant to be
other way round.
Truth would never become reality,
we will accept, wear, show whatever we fancy and in the end amongst a bunch of
fools we try to be the one who is coolest. How lonely we are, we can’t sit and
talk to ourselves, we need someone, always who would remind us of our
greatness, who would tell us that we are the ones who could bring about a
change. And I ask why? Have we nothing better to do? Can’t we even feel that we
are breathing, we are being alive? In this frenzy we will possibly never ever
realize that. All our efforts, lifetimes are spent, not in improving anything
sensible but profit, financial status and anything showy, and all we can do is
complain, we just don’t improve neither do we intend to, being an Indian, such
a lazy race we are, and I blame none, because this chaos, we inherit and it
will take a lot of time for us to bring order to it.
