The Chess Board of Life

Kya Bashar Kee Bisaat -- Aaj hae kal nahee

At times it is frustrating to see people behaving selfish despite knowing they are here for short period of time. I dont know what to do with that. I guess I am too simple to be political or mean.

You help some body, and that somebody starts using you--a point comes where you feel threatened. Yet the same person who you helped once, turns against you once he/she is in power forgetting everything. Not that I would help somebody with the expectation of returns in mind. But it is so difficult to digest.

People have different perceptions about life. For example some people are always curious about "What I am wearing", Why I have been wearing some shirt time and again", "Why my shoes are worn off", and "Why have I not changed my car yet", or "making a display of how rich they are", or " how successful they are in career, and yet others are not"....when they themselvesdoes not know how to treat people with respect regardless of what they are wearing, and regardless of what their financial status is?

I feel miserable in the company of such people...no matter how hard you try....these kind of folks simply wont change....no matter what?

When it comes to life...i think it is delicate. My personal experience is that choices you make in life impact your life. People take it forgranted---and at the time of making choices do not realize what will they bring to them. I think for young generation it is something to ponder. A right choice made at a right time saves you from many problems in future. Choices could be troublesome in anything. For example, " A choice of leaving your home, and traveling oceans length away to seek better future"......well..it sounds very interesting...but it may bring many unnecessary things to your life....if you move to a place which is a melting pot...where you yourslef has melted a bit...what happens with your generations...if they keep inheriting this gradual melting...what happens after two three generations...would they even have the "faith" you follow...and the question is how important is it for you that they keep same faith? Another question is what is the guarantee they will follow your faith anywhere else?

All of these things are quite complicated...and I am still struggling to understand them? I think people are very politically motivated...and I am too neive for any politics..
