THE WORLD – Then & Now

By

What is the world?
A child would say – a ball,
An aspiring youth will say – a vast place of opportunities.
An adult would say – the birthplace of various technologies.
An old man would say – a globe of experiences.
But I would define it as a cobweb where everyone is entangled in some problem or the other!
Everyone is unhappy ---
Some with money, some without money.
Some with job, some without job.
Some with love, some without love.
Some with everything, some without everything.
I remember the joyous days of primitive life.
Life of ignorance,
But still life full of happiness,
Man’s progress has brought jealousy, hatred and other such evils with it,
Real happiness has been lost amidst all these!
“Survival of the fittest” has become “survival of the richest”!
Money, money everywhere,
Happiness happiness no where!
Now tell me ---
“What is the world?”

We know they can hurt us, as much as they want to, in the way they want to. But love gives us that power to trust them, that they won’t.”   “And here I was thinking it is a need. Something you want at that moment and you get it!”

The moment I hear the question what is love? My answer always is this. Love is.  Those two words hold the entire meaning of love for me. When I was asked to write about my own version of love, my mind instantly ran to the nearest rescue I could find – music. For me, love is music, a song that your heart dances to and a rhythm that has the capacity to capture your soul. Love is the language of the universe, the one in which one soul converses with the other.
