".....It is there, in the final moments, for people whose farthest horizon has always been tomorrow, that one comprehends the profound tragedy circumscribing the life of the proletariat the world over. In those dying eyes there is a submissive appeal for forgiveness and also, often, a desperate plea for consolation which is lost to the void, just as their body will soon be lost in the magnitude of mystery surrounding us. How long the present order, based on an absurd idea of caste, will last is not within my means to answer, but it's time that those who govern spent less time publicizing their own virtues and more money, much more money, funding socially useful works."...

You & I !!!

Who are you?....What are you?

I pity you for you are but just a mask...a person of strong, hypocritical and hollow words...But I ask you..why don't you act...take charge??...
Weak...hesitant...a coward???
Bask in the glory of your vain and empty words, you do...Why so, I ask...Why?
Are you happy?...Are you satisfied, content with what you are, what you've become?...
I think both of us know the answers to those questions...
But always keep in mind..."You are responsible for whatever you are!!!"





A Prologue, of sorts !!!

I recall the opening lines of a superb book, where the author accentuates that the words to follow are not mere findings of a cynic. However, unlike that great mind, I am inclined to say the very opposite of that. These are the by-products of the intermittent intensity of the thought processes of an extremely cynical mind. One that has not yet shown the courage or determination to stop this incessant whining and start taking action, for a change.
