Sustainable before Midnight

Human Species have caused damage to the Earth. This is believed by many scientists. It is an untruth and a myth for many believers just like many scientists believe in the opposite. Did we ever wonder why the two sides don't agree with each other? 

One, the calculation of damage by climate change is hard to quantify. Which damage to give more priority? Damage to the rain forests or the tearing apart of glaciers? Fire in the forests or the smoke from coal plants? The calculation is difficult in quantitative terms. Garbage heaps are measured in tons. When the air pollution is charted in ratios of millions. Do you care about the marine life? Or do you use PET in the Himalayas? 

Humans like complexity. Their brains do not. 

If we break down history of the cosmos (yes from the Big Bang!). I hate to break the news (don't mind please) but, humans have existed for a few seconds in the entire time since the beginning of time itself. Maybe the picture of the clock would help you. Dart your eyes below and have a look. 

It is true that humans are the most intelligent species on the planet. Until the big green man (or woman) arrives, we remain at the top of the food chain. Our species has succeeded in creating a planet that serves us exclusively.

For how long if we play the game as we do today? Do we remain at commanding heights or can we change the rules of the game for a future we could agree upon? With that question I bid adieu to you.

Kissing Is a 'Goood' Idea

Why Kissing is such a Good idea? A unique concept of humans, we all know kissing feels good. There are good kisses and bad kisses. It makes your heart giddy with desire and gives butterflies in your stomach. What’s really in a kiss? Its super fascinating and what bonds people together and if you’re a bad kisser, well makes them run away. There’s an entire branch of science called philematology that’s devoted to kissing. Let’s see how laying one on your partner has major health benefits. Research shows, that it might actually have long-term benefits on mental and physical health. During a lip-lock the brain releases dopamine responsible of feelings of desire thus acting as an instant stimulator. A sincere tongue tangling kiss triggers a whole cycle of physiological processes that can boost your immunity and help groom that body of yours. The feel-good factor of kissing is not only physical but also psychological. Tension relief, that’s what it brings. Sensuality and sensual touch have ...

What I did not Do

Standing near a boiled egg/omelet thela on the outskirts of a vegetarian neighborhood with my chachu. Saw something that irked me. And like all that things that bother me,after i left, i forgot about it.  The thela owner apart from making delicious omelettes and serving the appetites of pseudo non-vegetarians was committing a crime. A crime that is wide spread and happens at every 'gali-koocha' of our neighborhood.  Child Labor. 2 kids around the age of 10-12, employed as helpers to the thela owner. Amazing thing is, the police in their PCR van stops in front of it, and doesn't take a second look at the violation of law taking in presence of public. They came, they ate and went away. I came, i ate and i went away. I made a video recording from my cell phone that presents an evidence of the reality. Should i do something about it? Or should i be a silent cum mute spectator. I am choosing the latter. why? It is convenient. I have my own job to do. With my daily problems to...

Latest Read : Upside of Irrationality

Our brain has wonderful way by which it constantly evolves along the way devising ways to leave us astray. At times it tries teaching something to us. We all usually busy in our world, decide against its meaningful advices and encroach upon 'decisions' we deem fit. What we never discover is the source of errors in judgement. Subconscious knows all and decides to inform at appropriate timing what we seek to accomplish. But gut and intuition (which at time prove to be wrong) come in between claiming everything. If we win, we call it glory, if not,  it is termed as a mistake. But  fellows. It is not our decisions over which we so easily lay claim upon that make us win. On the other hand it is the subconscious. While executing pre -ecided actions we choose to listen (best thing to do!)  all that our subconscious has clammed up in the past. That usually makes us execute our plans with a promise of success or at least save as from a nasty debacle. Everyday while we are b...
