A cup of coffee.


Coffee is one of the best companions what I have found. None can take its place in my life. Its position remains the same forever, stubbornly. I share each and every moment of my life with it. Coffee knows everything about me and my life. Be it summers or its winter, it serve me the best it have. It has the potential to change the degree of environment for you. In summers, it beat the heat by cooling you down, and in winter it generates warmth in you. The rains become more beautiful when you are with it. For sure, when the water drops fall from the sky on the glass pane of your room, or it falls from the ledge of your balcony, and you looking outside, the whole credit for relaxing and contemplating goes to the coffee. It generates the philosophical and the friendly part in you. All enmity is eliminated by it. Thus, a cup of coffee is more than what it actually is.

The Theory of Proportion and basic structure.

I have observed many of my elders saying the same sentence each and every time and on every occasion, "the present world order is too ill (aaj kal zamana bahut bura hai)". No change i had found in many years in this statement. The majistical and surprising thing about this sentence is that, it never get old. Every time, in many occasions, one can found it blooming like a fresh flower, and people enjoying its fragrance. But the question worth to inquire is the reason for infinite life of this flower. The reason is, what i have observed is, very simple.
1) the basic structure of an institution never changes.
2) the proportion and the rate of change of proportion between various things remains constant.
Confused!!! Don't worry its not even that typical.
You might have observed while studying history that the politics, war, plots, feelings, condition of women, children ,men, the discrimination all were static. And they will remain there forever with little change in their order. None can change it. I think Aristotle describes it the best, as men is a social and political animal.Thus, as all the institution are essential for the proper working of the society, so their fundamental structure can never be changed, and hence the proportion between the various things remains the same and things repeat themselves.
Due to this reason, the crime, poverty, unemployment, hunger, and other social phenomenon remain static.
This phenomenon, what i had observed is also responsible for the inter linkage of all the activities.Be it in past or in present. And this inter linkage of all the things form an intricate pattern, which starts from the same points and end at the same, just like the round earth. This also explains that knowledge is not unlimited , but the point is, we are unable to see its boundaries because of its pattern.
And thus because of all this reason, we find the same thing repeating each and every time, in some newer form.

Negativily Positive.

We all say that, positive things move the people ahead and thus in turn move the world around, but i have a bit of ambiguity at this point. What i think is, Greed being a negative word and emotion is responsible for the dynamicity of the world. If there would have been no greed, there would had been no social living world.
When i was young i heard many times from many people, "dude its the money that moves the world around." I believed them. But, as i became mature, slowly with the passage of time i realized that "the people were not exactly true. It was not the money. We all, as a social and political animal, want to acquire the highest status in the society, and that is estimated by the amount of money one posses. Because,money is power. Thus it is the greed for the money that make the people to go to any extent. for them, in many cases, its not the means, its the end. Moreover, greed is also accompanied by the selfishness. If we talk socially, either its human or its animal, the greed when attached with the care for other, is converted into the other form, the unity, which is also one of the most essential social aspect.
Hence at the end, we can say, Greed is the only negatively positive emotion in the world.
