Going by the general trend of thought, I first calculated how old I'll be in 2070. Seeing that I'll be 93 or 94 then I felt safe because chances are very slim that I'll be alive to see this destruction. What a relief!!!! But, after the temporary respite came the awful self-realization. Oh no !!! My daughter would be there at that time and as the destruction won't strike overnight, she'll be witnessing the preparatory stages for the doom's day !!! So, even if I am concerned about only and ONLY about my OWN FAMILY, I must take care of the Environment,- the natural status quo must be maintained. But how can I ? There are the money-spinning giants, the short-sighted leaders, the unaware, illiterate mass, the First World Big Bosses, the UNO as it is and above all the never-satiated greed or need of we, the people.
Everyday while going to and coming back from my office I see banned ( 15 years old or more than 15 years old ) vehicles running with confident indifference. Where from this indifference to legal obligations comes? Do I need to submit an answer? I guess not. There are so many examples like this.
Every thing that has a beginning, has an end. It seems we have to be mentally prepared for that ultimate day of complete annihilation, after all.
But so many times we, human beings have come out of the hole of despondency. Can't we do it again? Can't we remember that there are so many things which exist beyond our sweet home, our family and our self-centered world?
If we remember and act accordingly, there is a chance for survival of Planet Earth. Otherwise, nature will take its revenge for destroying its balance. Perhaps, in that last moment of life, we'll ever come to know the true meaning of PERFORM OR PERISH.
