For the peeps who are reading my blog, I’d like to tell you that I’m stuck in Bangkok and my seven day vacation looks like will be forced into a two week vacation. Bangkok is a nice place, the Thai woman look good, Thai food tastes good and Thai hospitality is incredible; So I guess I have nothing to complain. Having nothing to do sometimes draws our attention to vague co-relations that we would usually fail to make on a regular day. On one such lazy day in Bangkok I lay on the couch watching a bit of new; and it suddenly struck me – “The Entire World is in Turmoil”.
Consider this -
First there was the recession in the US & Europe which pulled down quite a few countries along with it coupled with the blood baths at the stock markets, Then there was the banking melt-down in Greenland, The PAD protests against the government in Thailand with a few killings in northern Thailand to add to the picture, followed by the shooting and blasts in Bombay which obviously were a classic example of our worth less internal intelligence… gross negligence and the utter lack of value for the human life in India, And then there was the outburst of Cholera in one of those African Countries (forgot which one), and just when you thought that was enough problem for a day you have the Floods in Brazil, coupled with some more flood in Venice. Do you want me to go on? The riots in Nigeria… The pirates in the waters of Africa… Falling oil prices giving sleep less nights to the horny and extravagant Sheiks… Civilian deaths in Baghdad… And lets add to that some of your own problems; Like say you have just been fired cause of the recession, you have issues with your personal life or maybe business is so dull that you would have to sell your kidneys to pay the salary and bills! Put them all together and we have a grand firework….
Now I don’t know what to really make out of all this. Is this some kind of a co-incidence, or is it all linked to each other at some meta physical level… or is it the universe balancing the equation to make things right, some sort of an evolution, maybe even a species cleaning exercise? Is this all a fallout of human greed and stupidity or is it something with a higher calling and purpose …. Or should we just maybe blame it all on the stars…
