Anomie
(AN-uh-mee)
noun: Social instability and alienation caused by the erosion of norms and values

That is the word that I was looking for!!
It just perfectly captures what's happening in our country.
The headlines are scary
Suicide bombers
Demands for new states
High Alert
Trifurcation
Total chaos
When will we learn,
When?
I fear for the future generation
Plunged in anarchy
Universities have closed
There are no classes
Only fast onto death
How will they compete
In this anomie....?

Truly a crazy way to be.
And to top it , I read this
To think we are causing ourselves more pain
and creating confusion

to read : my mother is ugly
That is indeed anomie

Plugging the leak in the thought pipeline

This is to honour my promise to the guy who had the inspired thought, 'the leak in the thought pipeline'! thanks amit!

why do we often have fleeting ideas?...things that have the potential of being great just pass of as mediocre thoughts, nothing is retained , we often don't even recollect how we spent our time last week.

I say to that, "plug it". now! Be proactive like the boy who stuck his finger in the tiny hole in the dyke and saved a flood, like all the amazing people of this world who did something with their time.

It's so easy to waste time,
and that's so surprising considering the fact that time is the one thing that you just can't get back. Once gone,it's gone forever.
If you spend money foolishly you can always earn it again, but time once gone will ever come back. But still people bemoan having spent money...but what about the time wasted!

It's like realising that no one but you has to take responsibility for your time and how you spend it. If I want to do something with my life , it's me who has to actively seek out opportunities and do something with all the positive brilliant thoughts that come to my mind. :-) Well I exaggerate but how will I know if I don't try!
