An effort.... an ice breaker... and heartbreak?

Just another of my random thoughts, though those who know me well would definitely find out the underlying sentiment.

I follow the India and Pakistan peace process quite closely. It is amusing sometimes, really childish, the way diplomats go about complaining about small matters; and how, at the drop of the hat, forces are mobilized on the border! But sometimes I feel....is it all so very easy. Is it really easy to solve a problem with just firm commitment on both sides.

This human is a complex thing...really complex. He wants peace, yet he will not accept it! We want people to be together, yet whenever there is an effort towards this, we want to go back.

All because we are not ready to accept change. We are not ready to forgive..... (I never say 'and forget', coz I believe that if we forget, we commit the same mistakes again!) We are not ready to even think of the times we were together. This is true of most of us!

We are happy to be ensconced in our comfort zones...not ready to move out. Yes, we would have to make compromises...no two things about it! And we would be looked upon by suspicion! Friends are lost, relationships are broken! But a beginning has to be made! For how long do we turn our backs to each other? For how long do we mistrust...disbelieve....? Just move on! Move on coz life is too small for small grouses....too small really!

A small beginning has been made, tried at least! Let us build up on this! Let the countries come together again.... it is a difficult path no doubt! But a path does exist! And we gotta take that path..the path less trodden! Don't forget the past...but use it to build your future.....

Nothing is Planned... things happen!

Chow!
