Travel......what a fascinating experience.People travel daily to work,once or twice a year on a holiday and frequently domestic or globally jet setting at a great pace.How many of us in spite of clocking thousands of jet miles pause to see what footprints have we left on the place and the people we met or visited.?Did we manage to make a difference?That small change that could make a world of a difference!But Lo!In this fast paced world who cares?
The way we dress, the way we speak and behave with the others ,what we talk in terms of content,how we portray the place where we belong and of course the basic etiquette's that go a long way in establishing relationships all these matter.We travel alone, sometimes with families and kids and many a times in groups if we are on a leisure trip.We do want to escape the grind and let our selves free ,agreed -but then when we travel through landscapes and meet cultures of varying backgrounds, religions, customs,we ought to pause and absorb the good out there and rub off a few good things from our end there.Make a difference.Add value to what ever one does and this is the opportunity one has to make this world a better place.We need to shed our mindsets and travel deep within the minds and explore the nerve centers of humans that create these differences.We need to break these artificial walls and minimize the conflicts so that peace prevails.We don't need only the UN to do that.All of us can make this happen if we have the will to do so.We talk of world peace, we talk about a border less world---virtually yes,but in reality???We create the demons and then instigate them to keep the world guessing about what they would do next?
It doesn't matter where we are, Somalia, Niger, India, Pakistan or Iceland its just the meaningful connection that we must work towards to make this a peaceful place for the next generations.We have our responsibilities and we must be accountable for them.Do we sense the dangers lurking when Japan had a major disaster,or the US had a series of occasions where nature let its fury be known,Iceland spewing venom and throwing the airline industry of gear across the world.Global warming is going to wash of small islands and countries in the next 50 years.We don't have time and we need to heed and pay attention to these signals.These are clear indications of things to come for which we have no answers..If we add fuel to fire and make things worse for us and the next generations then we are committing suicide.If we don't wish to learn and share our own experience and break these barriers and come close we are doomed.Travel companies, airlines, hospitality industry,cruise lines can all contribute positively in a big way to make this happen.That is one big opportunity to address the masses and bring them closer to reality spread the message of peace and harmony ..If we leave the world in the hands of a few elected politicians to think for us we are doomed.Expecting them to unite the world is living in a fools paradise.Its only the common man ,with; a sincere intent, utilizing his time to spread the message and bring about the awareness amongst the people and make them realize the truth can make that happen.We are adding to the population, we are adding weight on this earth that is bursting at its seams and to top that under the guise of science add nukes and weapons of mass destruction.
Pause and give yourself quality time to think and make that difference.We all need it.We have limited time to debate and need to act and show.Without ulterior motives one needs to stretch ones self to make this happen.
With the wheels of time turning every second counts and while I blog we have spent quite a few.Add the population and it adds up to tons of man hours.Messengers and ambassadors of peace representing various organizations need to think of harnessing the people power and not dream of making this world a better place by visiting Africa and hitting headlines on electronic or print media.We are adding millions of cars a year, consuming tons of fuel, spitting out volumes of smoke and spending money in inventing alternate energy sources to keep the business and economy ball rolling.Where will it reach?Isn't this suicide?We are sitting at one end of the world and igniting passion and fear,fanning negative sentiments and pushing smaller; economies for individual gains down the gutter.Will that help?Is it right to just follow blindly?We don't wish to learn and keep making the same errors.Why are we so adamant?Who wants to prove a point against the inevitable?Then why can't we make life better and give the coming generations a chance to cruise.Is it not cruise sense?
Wherever we see space and opportunity we are wanting to fill it up?China and India are the best bets to mess up with as all other regions are stagnating and suffering the consequences be it employment, family values,etc.So we do the same to them.What after that? North pole is melting away anyway and before we realise the seals and the penguins will be in China and India in the Zoo.
Please make a difference or else it would be too late to turn around.All it takes is 8 Richter on the scale or a Tsunami near a nuclear reactor apart from the illogical jihads which help nobody and only make this world sink day by day.Bond with the people, forget the differences as we will be able to enjoy more and live a better quality life and make it still better for our kids.reach out as much as you can, use every opportunity to connect with your neighbors,soon.We are the world , we are the people,its we who are going to make that happen............u and me.
