Vagaries of life:

[blazeofglory]

We want change badly and desperately, but it is hard to come by; for we take a different course to fulfillment. The end result is we get plunged into a pool of woes. Simplicity is what we forsake and pursue dreams which are unattainable.

We know with technologies degrees of peace drop, and complexities mount. We set homes, but the souls to breath life into them die in a course of time. What remains of individuals are simply deceased desires and soulless and dismal beings with their cacophonic hullabaloos reverberating the whole environs.

I know tens of thousands migrants who aspire to inhabit in a land of prosperity and think they are ahead of their generations and time. The plights of the immigrants in developed countries are really shockingly painful. They leave behind homes that can house their souls, and they part with their nears and dears, deserting their desires and take on wings of imaginations to a land of dreams wherein they will shed their feathers of desires and will live soullessly in the end.

I simply wonder why people set themselves in quest of a mirage eternally but to arrive at yet another stretch of the desert.

We need science and technology in essence, and we can not do away with them, yet choosing a life of simplicity wherein our primeval motives and desires are fulfilled why do not we pause and ponder.

Life is not an endless quest or gold rush heartlessly. Let us pause for a second and enjoy things that come so easily, rather than running for something which will turn out to be nothing finally but a heap of vagaries

I'm reminded of a podcast [or something (can't keep up with technology let alone their terminologies)] where the speaker addresses change with regards China.

China is changing so rapidly, he says (I withhold the name lest I get sued for misquoting and/or attributing him with ideas & thoughts he never expressed), that the United States by comparison feels old. He spoke of a pothole in Los Angeles that a Chinese businessman drove over, the very same pothole that the said Chinese businessman drove over ten years ago while he was a student in UCLA, the message being that nothing ever changes in the United States or if it does it takes aeons.
