World, Hold on...!

This article is coming up after a while. Sorry, had been tied down, due to busy schedules.. 


I have been travelling a lot these days, it was interesting to observe different people, their lifestyles, the way they talk and behave.. The recently concluded Ganesh utsav had restored a sense of faith and a dream of a ray of hope for better times... At least that is what most would have prayed for to their favorite God. But i guess, Inflation was too much for our Bappa to take care of.. Inflation rose, so did the fuel prices.. Probably, the Government is playing a game of its own! 


The other day, i saw this kid, begging on the street, while a rich kid in a BMW, watching him and having a hearty laugh. It was such a pitiful sight. A clear show of the rich-poor divide. The so called great heritage of this country couldn't solve this age old problem. Two kids of the same age, one begging to salvage a meal, and the other, spoilt for choices over the variety of food.. That sight Almost brought tears to my eyes..!


This song by Simple Plan comes to my head, which says about, how people are going crazy and how, the  lifestyles of people are changing.  The lyrics of the song are so damm true and this is how the world is changing and falling to pieces.
Traditional value system doesn't hold good anymore.  People are too busy starring into their iPad and blackberry to spend time with their children. It looks like, all they care about is money.


The pace with which the world is degrading, i guess, we all are falling in a big dark pit. And the fun part is, we are actually enjoying the ride...
