the rant on the race..

..and then we ended up being too full of ourselves. And so full did we become that somehow, we could not see beyond ourselves anymore.

..so strongly did we start asserting our individuality and so limited did our vision become that we just did not look inside people anymore..we became way too literal, way too wise, read too much between the lines, and read too little of what our hearts meant.

..and evolve we did

so god made mankind, and probably the way he had it planned, we were expected to evolve-and evolve we did..or, may be we weren’t exactly created humans but primates who would learn and evolve into humans-but evolve, nonetheless.

as kevin kelly tells us, our primate forefathers learnt if they lived long enough to learn..and then, if they lived long enough to pass their wisdom on, they did pass it on to their daughters and sons, who apparently lived long enough to develop sensibilities to receive wisdom that their mothers and fathers had..this would also, usually, save generations after generations the time spent in discovering wisdom already discovered..thus would evolve a species, and so would, very expectedly, the nature of incremental wisdom being discovered-with better and more advanced learnings usually replacing the basic learnings, generations after generations.

humans, however, amaze me, for they defy all logic. and they just refuse to learn. and everyday, instead of becoming better, become worse..and i wish we learnt to live life, to love each other, to let us love each other, to believe in each other, to trust them, to understand them..and i wish it was this wisdom, and not the walls, not the divisions, not the castes, not the religion, not the borders, not the conflicts, and not the hatred that we passed on to the generations..

..alas, we don't!

half way out of the sheets

it's amazing how people see things about you that you yourself don't, and at times, can't. this is one of those few reasons that are now starting to make me listen to people, for they may be right. and then i wonder, what is that thing that so quietly changes people, that thing that changes people's hearts without they even knowing it is happening to them, that thing that very silently changes the way we think and that thing that leaves you a changed human being without you even realizing that it happened until that wonderful morning when you are just half way out of the sheets starting to wake up and wonder, hey i've changed!
