TRAPPED INSIDE THE BOX....
The mental disintegration of a human mind is one of the most destructive procedures I have ever known. Nuclear Bombs appear less dangerous in such cases. The stumbling blocks are politics, religion and the human ego. We all live in our individual glass houses. Every single one of us is born with a brain so powerful and so dynamic that it is capable of creating new galaxies, stunning constellations and beautiful planets. When was the last time you asked yourself "How does water appear inside a coconut???" (silly question I know :) ) . When was the last time you asked YOURSELF the solution to the global economic crisis instead of banking on the expert's solution??
We are all becoming zombies, absorbed with our own problems, busy with our own lives, tensed due to our own situations....When was the last time that we thought out of the box???? Not recently.....not in a very long time.....We are all dependent on the eternal newspapers and the ever so loud news channels to act as catalysts and send our brain into the analytical zone.....This is the disintegration of the human mind......It needs catalysts to think.......Barring a few exceptions...all of us....whether we accept it or not have mentally degraded ourselves...with the all time favorite excuse "I DO NOT HAVE TIME" .
Those that think out of the box are termed as "WEIRDOS" or "MENTALLY ILL" people :)
Unfair :) . Not all of them mind you.....but a majority of them. The world has always in most cases, mocked and ridiculed people who have dared to be different, think differently.
If you need to send your brain into that analytical overdrive without a catalyst,I suggest a very simple exercise. Visit the nearest slum house or carefully observe street children. A few days back, I observed a child who was selling flowers at the traffic signal and everything from the Economic order to poverty to child labour crossed my mind. Sometimes to think out of the box...you do not need an inspiration....sometimes you just need to look outside the glass house you are living in.
We all blame the government, the government blames us and we end up going nowhere. If we blindly say that India is the greatest country in the world, then we are wrong.......India has the POTENTIAL to become the greatest country in the world. We find refuge in the excuse that we have a rich culture, moral ethos and good values. Does this mean that the progressive nations in the west have bad morals?? In case we have not noticed, we are about a hundred years behind them in terms of development. It's time to take stones and smash the glass house.......It is time to wriggle our brains and come up with thoughts and ideas which will make others sit up and take notice...But if you do not have the time, nobody is asking you to leave your couch...enjoy yourself :)
