Nature's Symphony

"At the moment my life is a symphony composed of three distinct movements: ' a lot of people', 'a few people', and 'almost no one'. Each of them lasts about four moths of the year; and although there is often a little of each during the month, they never get confused".
-Like the flowing river (A collection of short stories and notes by Paulo Coelho).

Hang around. Be there, enjoy. What's the hurry? Life is anyways rushing past. So much change all around, giving us with very little time to cope. Definition of self is no longer relevant, it keeps changing, like many other things. Personal boundaries are blurred. Inherent values and culture seems like a giant Collage-there are no defined shapes and colours, one has to try and make sense of it. Frame of reference keeps changing. So what? Ever body is as lost. It is one blind man leading another.

I wish we were all as fortunate as Mr Paulo Coelho, to have the liberty; of choosing and spending life between ' a lot of people', 'a few people' and 'almost no people'. Particularly we Mumbaikar's....where there are only people.....a lot of people and many more people.

My interpretation of God

Somewhere in a church/Temple/Mosque stood a man praying to god...."God....I hate him....I want to kill him.....forgive me for killing him for he is a sinner...I hate him....I will kill him"
Somwhere in a Church/Temple/Mosque stands a man praying to god...."God....save me...save my life...he wants to kill me...he will kill me....god I don't want to die...save me...."
God is the supreme conscience which grants them both their wish. For.....the killed and the killer are no different. Is God just or is he unjust? I don't know.

God and his true nature is beyond my interpretation.
