These fingers have been asleep for sometime now and I never thought I would actually come back to this place to write something. As for me, I take this as another phenomenon yet to be understood thanks to the great mysteries of chaos and turbulence; another one of my moments of entropy that has very well decorated my life with colors both vivid and somber. Its rude to be talking about myself especially since I've already breached the boundaries of my egocentricity when I am not filling this cyberspace with jibber-jabber but water flowing through a spring would always carry that which it has caught up along its way. I shall share with you the pie I baked from the panic we have with the Iranian government and their relentless love affair with nuclear energy.
We have the USA and the rest of the cowboys of the western world going bananas over Iran's nuclear enrichment programme, not forgetting North Korea as well with their own nuclear mania. The cream on top of this cake is how the very thought of someone like Ahmednijad would seem like he has a ball, not unlike North Korea, playing America's boogie man. Makes you think that the Americans have not gotten over their trauma of the October crisis and hence starts feeding their nightmares of a nuclear fall out to the rest of the world which is perpetuated even further by the ever so eager Israelis itching to toss their paper planes across the region to eliminate the "threat".
I guess one could see where I am getting with this. The idiosyncrasy of the whole situation just leaves my wits tickled by a downright blatant question: why the hell do we yank our hair to the follicles trying to get these kids from blowing us all up? Here's a more pragmatic approach; Iran wants to catapault their herd of nuclear cows upon the rest of this fair world, GO AHEAD! NUKE US ALL...let's see who would play with you when your toys return us to the dust from which we came. Asking, demanding and even threatening them has just made us look like paranoid fools so much so that its probably entertaining for Ahmednijad to see the rest of the world zapped by the "nuclear threat" electric collar every time he pushes the button. Now we love Earth. No place like Earth with all her beautiful curves, her intoxicating scent and her gentle caresses of the wind not forgetting of course the rest of us who share and live off her; but I don't see any interest in sticking around for the after party of a nuclear brawl. So, if Ahmednijad wants to nuke a chunk of the Earth and stick around after, I say, be my guest. Try feeding yourselves let alone trying not to turn into radioactive masses of flesh. Now, is he really going to open Pandora's nuclear silo?..I don't think so.
Considering that humans are supposed to be rational, at least when it comes to our survival, triggering war like this isn't in anyway going to get anybody what they want but, even if, the powers that be lack consideration, then we're sooner or later doomed.
Its like nature. We have created a huge mess in our chaotic endeavors of civilization and technology when instead we are descending into deeper levels of purgatory. We refused to work with nature and hence she decided to let us go ahead and amuse ourselves with our grand hallucinations of progress however knowing very well that if we were to mess up the balance, we aren't going to be able to survive for long. So its a choice we make whereby the consequences would eventually affect ourselves, our survival. I recognize that such a proposition would be absurd and we should be guardians of our own survival and civilization; but burning ourselves out while trying to keep ourselves from running off a cliff is no solution either. We drive ourselves through brick walls and walk out with heads bleeding just so we can keep ourselves alive? Has the cost of living gotten so high that we pay with our lives just so we can keep breathing?
We lack a sense of collectivity; the acknowledgement of our interrelated minds and the vital communication in between that we need so dearly. Too much has been said among us but evidently nothing has been heard. Words of wisdom and love have been over reiterated through time to be nothing more than passing thoughts of that which should be. I find myself adding to the redundancy of it all just by writing here. It is, and has been for a long time, efforts of vain trying to speak to each other when we lack the capacity to listen.We instead run around the bush while clanging pots and pans as we deafen ourselves to the whispers of our salvation. We unceasingly scream out the questions into the face who could answer us.
