Christopher Reeve
Some random thoughts on a great man. A great advocate for a just cause and a cause which he fully knew wouldnt benefit him but the generations to come. People like him epitomize sacrifice for a cause. He will rest in peace and in the heavens he will fly satisfied. In this great machine of life, people come and go like specks of dust and they seldom create a place for themselves in history. A place full of good, kindness, strength, conviction and giving. All through our lives we look upto a few people because of the way they conduct themselves in adversity and during calm tides. This man was one who stood tall and strong all the way through. Hats off to him for bringing in awareness to the world regarding paralysis. He tried his level best to push research on the same and never gave up. The soul is gone but the legacy will stay. The soul has gone to a better place where equilibrium between the good and the better exist.

when i was doing my masters it was easy to be a part of the system that understood, empathized and felt the pain of the world. The longer i stay in the business world, the more i realize that my world is getting smaller and so is my thought process. I have no feel or touch for the atrocities that the world is being subjected to. My rational side doesnt seem to exist as strongly as it used to . My critical side loses more and more of its conviction and here i am lost in the ocean of self betterment materialistically with no inclination to give something concrete back to this world that we live in. I am lost and i am hollow. This was not what i wanted to be and this is exactly where i am. It is time to open the mind, be less cynical, be more trusting and try to make a difference.
Rather than giving something back to the world being the problem, i have lost the ability to feel. Compassion was something i took for granted in my earlier years and something i have drastically lost over the years. Is it me or is it the world? I feel it is a bi
t of both. A lot can be achieved with compassion, inclination and passion and when one loses it along the hustle and bustle of life it becomes a stoical process, this life. It is good to feel pain and it is good to feel happy. The emotions help us connect reality. We need to fit the label as Homo Sapiens. We need to think, do the right thing and inculcate compassion, inclination and passion in our lives. We will be better people. We will be better human beings. I urge humanity to live life in the same manner and keep things in the balance. We are slowly but surely losing the very essence of a decent life. The fabric of society seems to be decaying and all we do is sit and watch and also sometimes join. Moderation is the need of the day. Moderation is the need of the time. It is the need of the youth and has to be practiced.
well said! enjoyed reading your comments.
