The World is Divided in their views of Life

Very Obvious.

I wanted to just summarize two events which crossed my path during the past two weeks.

While one part of the world is starving and leading a life in absolute misery while the other is enjoying the best the nature had to offer them ;like clean air, water and a good livelihood.

Why did such a rude awakening come to me all of a sudden?

I was in a restaurant a week ago along with a mate of mine and just while we were seated by the polite looking waitress, my mate pulled out a small plastic bottle.

I was stunned looking at the small bottle and asked him what it was . He looked at me and replied , the world is dirty and this is a lotion to clean the hand. I was genuinely intrigued by advances in medical sciences and technology, however, the reply came as a thunderbolt and took me by surprise.

The next event was on Monday this week, when couple of people in my office were so annoyed that their keyboard was dirty and bought in soft wipes to clean that and were complaining relentlessly.

I was just stupefied.

I looked at the event in utter dismay. The only thought that occurred to me seeing it was " Half the world across people cannot clean themselves even for their basic needs and here they seem to be complaining about keyboard not being clean". What else could i possibly think?

I come from a place where people try to be clean but there isn't a genuine opportunity to follow that. Leave that aside , how many times in a day that we see people not having clean environments but still put up a brave face to get on with their daily chores of work with a happy face.

Its such a disparity in this world , where one side is annoyed that their keyboard or the place in a restaurant is dirty , while in the other side , people live in shanty places and make the best of what they have.

Both of them strive for the same thing in life " Happiness" , however their views of life are poles apart and each one views life in a completely different manner .

Such an irony!

Watch out next blog - God is Great but i think he is Unfair.

Weirdo.

What kind of a title is this?

OK let me explain what that "X" in the title is and then you'll understand what i want to write and why a smiley at the end of the title.

The "X" is the number of people that i see in a bar in the city of London on a Monday evening and the comma separates the start of the next day.

It still fascinates me how the number of people in a bar explodes as the week goes by. By Friday evening as can been seen from the title, it is the melting pot of just people.

A bar hosts people from all walks of life right from the most affluent to the modest, you can see a man drinking a Budvar or the most expensive malted whisky. No religion, no creed, caste or sex . There is no discrimination.

To say you the truth, i have now become party to this Friday mela. I have been going to a bar every Friday for the last few weeks.

What i typically find is that its a great place to gossip and unwind. One can see that people start slow and end on a high, not to forget that people start early and stay as late as possible.

If one can keep ears open, its easy to find out what is happening in the city, in my view its also a newsroom but miles away from the flashy studios but serves its purpose.

The ambiance of a bar is key to its success, its that one which brings in an eclectic mix of emotions to all those who are around.

The ambiance is the oxygen of a bar , the blood are the drinks.

The ambiance and the buzz makes it a magical place and with a chilled drink in hand , what better place on earth to live on a Friday night.

Not to miss out those chicks who add to the irresistible charm of the place.

The biggest plus in a bar is that every one's truth comes out , couple of drinks down and all of them speak straight from the heart. That's one of the most interesting part that i can think of going to a bar.

Its a great place to relax , if one can manage oneself within limits, a visit to a bar isn't that unreasonable nor a taboo.

It can be one of the happiest place for a reunion or even to talk serious business or while away time or just to be mischievous.

Time just flies sitting in a bar. Simply a great place but with a different setting.

Hang-on if you have by now thought when did this guy start drinking , you are grossly mistaken. Who in the world said that one need to only drink alcohol in a bar, a creamy thick latte is still possible.

I have been going to the bar just to be a part of this culture and true to the word drinking is a part of living here. I can be the only person to have been to a bar to drink a hot latte and that too seven consecutive weeks in a row.

Am sure that made you smile.
