toddler world

Those little colourful toddlers in the kindergarten next door are in such a state of bliss, oblivious to the real world around them and the next 100 years they may need to face.What a dreadful thought!I wonder after going through the daily grind, getting chiseled and powdered by the mortars of every day life what is going to be the state of these budding youngsters when they have to go through this ?Possibly it would be a few hundred times more than what we are facing today.Mere thoughts of bringing them up with rising inflationary pressures, peer pressures,adulterations,scams,victimization,health scares and deteriorating environment concerns is scary.We as their grandparent, parents have to create a decent base for them to struggle and survive these next 50-100 years . The pressure on infrastructure, roads, food supplies, depleting natural resources, cost of running a house and of course acquiring one , which is a must nowadays is phenomenol.The way the mother earth reacts spewing out the volcanoes and tsunamis, earthquakes and typhoons is a sure warning for all of us to take necessary steps and make this world a better place for the generation next.Bringing a new life into this world may be an accident, may be by choice and may be to proove a point or due to sheer unemployment.Some times I wonder how all the shanties in our cities have kids sprawling around , sitting on the roads/pavements and surviving on one hand and growing by the dozens,and yet managing to survive.They do add pressure on our systems and resources.What are we doing about them?From the educated world we knowingly keep adding to keep our DNA alive or the lineage so that many centuries from now our spirits roaming around in this world (as we still would be nurturing some incomplete desires and wants which are never ending)could possibly be happy to see them still in use on the college and school musters.Think hard ,think fast and act quick so as to help us create a place worth living for centuries ahead.
