Choices

We all might agree that whatever and wherever we are today is the end result of our very own choices 'to do' or 'not to do'
Even if the choices were forced, we still 'own them' as we had the choice either to 'submit to others wishes' or to be a 'rebel'

Im not sure of the proverb which says "Prayers can move mountains"
But surely our "Choices" have the power to move mountains
It is our choices which has made Apple the "Apple" and other companies like Google, Facebook, Pepsi, Coke among  many others to stand tall as a mountain
And it is also our choices which is responsible for global warming, farmers suicide, corruption, nepotism, casteism

Many of our choices have a very selfish, mean, self-centered, egomaniacal, unintelligent and unthoughtful tone to it
Each time we make a choice "to do" or "not to do", every such time we are writing our own fate including that of others

Our choice to prefer or boycott drinks like Pepsi, Coke and even packed water has the power to seal the fate of farmers
It is our choice to give right or wrong information over web, but it's sad that we end up showing our utmost integrity at the wrong place

Our combined individual choices is more powerful than the government ruling us
The government might end up making policies in favour of giant companies in response to an agreed reciprocal arrangement
But these giant companies in turn depend on our choices for their own survival

At the very naive level, our choices can be bifurcated into essential, comfort and luxury
The rising problem is due to the fact that most of our choices finds its shelter around essential category irrespective of it's nature
It does so due to high demand for bad adjectives taking over our emotion's such as jealousy, arrogance, irresponsible, intolerant

Our individual choices when compared to the rest of world might seem to be micro-insignificant
But it counts
Just like every drop of water can manifest itself into a lake, river or sea

So Choices it is...
The answer to many prayers
And one among many to....
'Heal the world'
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make it a better place
For you and for me.....
Song by Michael Jackson

Few Years Later

This is few years after parting away Im seeing her again Standing across a distance accompanied by a stranger Putting on a beautiful smile I have wilfully dreamt of this dreadful moment for many a times Dreadful because of the varied outcome it entails One of the most dreadful outcome was in answering to myself, Will she recognise me??If not Such lack of recognition would define what I meant to her It would exactly mean what a crowd of people walking under the bridge mean to a  person standing over the bridge for a smoke As no crowd ever had any face, All they have is a very visible unidentified presence More importantly it says a smoker just doesn't give a damn It would be more than any human indignation possible, as it also reaffirms that you are not remembered Which would prove that my favourite song "you are not alone" by MJ which use to bring some respite at one among many moments of despair,  was not for me My heart started gathering pace with beati...

a journey to a spotless mind

"Congratulations, it's a Baby Girl", the doctor says, as he hands over the new born baby girl to her mother while the nurse straps the umbilical cord. Chapter 1: Dream Dreams are, in fact, manifestations of reality, it is the amount of mutation that reality undergoes in our mind that makes it appear far-fetched. It is an unusual dream, he thought. Asleep. Dreaming. Conscious. Like a fly on the wall, he was quietly experiencing and sneaking on his own dream. He was mind boggled by the visuals that his dream had to offer. The visuals were unlike anything that he would possibly experience in waking life.  The sky up above was deep bluish dark with a million stars twinkling, there was no sight of the moon. But the thing that he was boggled by, was the surreal fact that, even though the sky called it night, his surroundings were brightly lit as day. At a closer look he saw millions-and-millions of rainbow’ish molecular self-lit tiny bubbles floating in the surrounding and ligh...

Wonder

How many number of times a day do we look ourselves in the mirror?? And most of every such time we are posing just one question "Do I look alright??" expecting a confirmation from the reflection part of us that   "You look perfect" or "You look pretty alright" or "Not bad" We have been doing this day in and day out so much that its almost like an unnoticeable self centered routine part of us, among others things This evening I watched the trailer of a movie called "Wonder", which revolved around a kid called Auggie having a disfigured face due to multiple surgeries The trailer was indeed moving After watching the trailer I was forced to think as to "How many times do people having a disfigured face or people having marks on their faces look themselves in the mirror?? If they do even once a day or a week, do they expect a confirmation from the mirror as to how they look?? I'm not really sure, what reality is.... But I...
