...From Monks to Monkeys

Man descends from primates and this fact is being denied by a few "good" men who obviously think they are seated above the rest..taking it as a racial slur. By now you know what i am referring to, and its a thing of great discontent among us Indians especially coz no one has been on the receiving side more than us. Branding a mere remark in a package of racism questions not only the integrity of morals but that individual as well.

Have times led us to become so superficial in our thoughts and actions that all we have left of us is class biases and all what defines our being is race. I hope not but unfortunately it can only be said for a handful. We celebrate the World "this" day,world "that" day but actually the word "world" is more disintegrated than ever before be it caste,communism or for that matter a petty issue.It seems to be a part of cricket when it goes on the field but its happening everywhere..most of it goes unnoticed or is turned a blind eye to coz cant be done about much.

I go about contradicting my point of discontent from external allegations of racism just to see the other side of the coin which is that racism has been a part of india since long so much so that the political parties use it as an agenda to gain majority.Not to mention the states, the point wanting to be stated is is of hypocrisy.

Some deep soul searching has to be done to understand where we stand ,to question whether things have led our thoughts go so awry that we have actually become those from whom we evolved even after evolving.
We'd rather not turn from monks to monkeys...

The Art of Failure

Some of us are more dearly loved is what i feel compared to those who slog each and every minute of life just to hang onto its very end.Yet success is biased in its own small self-righteous way making the successful even more successful and the failure even more dug into a miserly existence.These are the biases of life itself,one day you are the master of it all,the very next day no one knows you.

Although the taste of success is sweet,i vouch that failure too comes with a sweeter fragrance,but only for those who would like to smell it...The rest of us are so afraid that we hide away into our shells...never actually seeing the brighter side of it at all.

Failure teaches success and success denies failure,but the complex paradigm is actually a paradox..a truth..which I hardly seemed to recognise at first though now it seems a reality.

Once failure is recognised,success itself shall not be far away coz then one would strive for it..and the one who wont wouldn't mind failure either.Too much success leads to denying the whole basis of its existence....relating to my junior class,a 100 in maths section was a part of the report card,but its value was recognised once the 100 jumbled its numbers to form the beautiful 1.(not exactly that way)

The art of failure makes it worth the slog and those pitfalls are then accepted with much sweeter smell.Its then 'we' feel that yes some of us are dearly loved as for those who are successful...love shall wait its time.
