freedom: just getting a little confused


Freedom, much has been said about it. So, I will just go into the important part, the freedom to express oneself. Today in the afternoon while travelling by bus a scene provoked me to write this. A mad person was showing his acrobatics over the divider of an arterial road. Yes I agree that the person has lost his senses, but the way he was prancing around made me feel envious. Why can’t I be that free? Meet me any day and chances are too high that you will find my earphones on me or in my kit. Well the reason to have it? To have a comfortable surrounding in my ears to make me feel home or in other words, to cut myself off from the world. We have become so …I cant think of the correct expression, that we will not even see the person beside us but even a pin in a large board will not escape our notice. You may say that the ways of the world have changed and dangers lurk all around. I will not disagree, but think for yourself when was the last time you had a random conversation with a random stranger anywhere on the face of this world or off it? Well signing off for today with a hope that you my dear reader will be a little more expressive, just that much where everyone is satisfied and there aren’t any discomforts. Goodbye.

The business of thinking…


Have you ever wondered how much a thought might cost? Seldom I believe. But look around and the result is , well, it can be priceless. Right from your being born to your upbringing, your living, the sustenance you will perform, the advancement of the species all have a thought point.
A small example, the fire. Had that ingenious person not had conceived that idea of producing fire and preserving it what would have we done. May have been eating raw and uncooked. Well we can say that is the long gone past, what now? Take up anything, lets assume here the screen or device in which you are right now reading this piece of literature, someone had to think to make it, isn’t it? How much did you pay for it? That is the cost of one product, for the thought it’s the price multiplied by the number of sold products…a small calculation for you to evaluate the price.
So, my dear reader, it looks in this world the thinking has gone down a bit, so I will just suggest think a little, maybe it will payoff. As for the cost of my thinking to conjure this piece, I haven’t evaluated it but I guess it is your patience to read it out the whole length. Live long and prosper.
