Well, I guess everyone wants good things to happen to them. Interestingly, they don't want to know their complete future, but still they'd love to know in bits and pieces- "only if good things are in store". I guess we all live our life in optimism - well almost all I should say, coz some people say living in Pessimism is better - that way, even a small good event brings a lot of happiness. I know a few people who live like this. My blog's header says "Script your own destiny" - and I am about to say - Life takes its own course! we might want things to happen, in certain ways, at certain times, at certain places - but it always doesn't. We try to steer our way in that direction and as one colleague at work used to say "Lord Willing" - it might happen or it might not. If it does, we are happy, else - we reason out - by saying "what happens happens for good" or cribbing about how our luck is rotten!. Life still goes on!
Just watch any world news and you will know how Life Goes On No Matter What Happens. Nature has begun to cure itself - in this process thousands of lives will be lost. Its interesting to note how man has always invented things that lead to his own destruction in the end. Imagine all those people burried in China because of the earthquake - they build it with Brick and Mortar so as to shelter them from Rain, Storm, etc but not when Nature decided to go with Earthquake. Now they blame the government for poor safety regulations. Well we all need someone to blame when things go wrong.
We dug up earth because we didnt find anything better to do - extracted oil, used it to drive our lives and now thats leading to our own destruction. Now we are planning for a band-aid solution to it! We buy stuff we dont use and trash it - only to end up in landfills. These never disintegrate and in the end again will lead to destruction!...
Well, inspite of all this happening, people still fight for no reason, are upset on all silly things...hate each other...
I guess its true that when God was creating man, he kept asking what he wanted, God kept filling a glass with every want that Human desired, in the end when he asked for PEACE, there was no place left in the glass! and that explains why we are what we are today!
Keep Looking for Peace!
