Why is there so much strife in the world as a whole and right now in our corner?

Isn’t a toddler laughing and chasing a butterfly the same happy

A starving child crying for food deserves the same compassion irrespective of what nationality that unfortunate one was born into without its own consent.

My family was involved in the freedom struggle in the early 20th century. Uncles from both sides of the family were jailed for participating in the Swarajya movement.

I find it very sad that instead of spending what little resources are available to using them for the betterment of all , we are engaged in confrontation.

Let us all hope and pray that this craziness ends soon and we all go back to being just CEans contributing our mite and combined might to make this a better world and realise “Vasudaiva Kutumbakam”. 

I apologise to the CEan community for this private rant.
