“Canary Wharf- incredible innovation!
French-just Crepe…with Nutella!
Manchester United-rocking!
Paris Hilton-why her?
Haagen Dazs-better than Ben & Jerry’s!
Multinational finance-not my piece of cake.
‘Death-the leveller’-true. .
Jive-50s yet burgeoning!”
And I—a repository of a rush of pieces of extraneous, tangential thoughts gushing through my system..!
Stability is seldom the doctrine of the brain cells.
Intrigue-an insatiable addiction!
Who designed my jigsaw puzzle? Looks like Claude Monet’s incomprehensible piece of work...Or did somebody flick my pieces—if not, perhaps I dropped them in my whopping world..!
May be my game is just meant to be that way or nobody ever gave me the guideline book…!
Wisdom and insanity are complementary to each other.
Thank you my stars-- for the generous showers of insanity…
Wisdom will follow some day…….!!

Why not eschew differences?
The Webster's Dictionary defines the word 'difference' in two ways.First as,an instance of differing in nature,form or quality.And second as,distinction or discrimination in preference.Discrimination.There lies the problem.That's what shades the word 'difference' grey.When these differences become magnified,they are dangerous.Diversity on the other hand implies a variety;of customs,idiosyncracies,species,musical traditions and so on.It can be interpreted as differences which are distinctive,not confrontational.Only a megalomaniac would wish to destroy the rich diversity that makes up our world.50 years ago,there was one such dictator who wished to impose uniformity. Adolf Hitler.And his prejudice that led to the capture,torture and slaughter of 20 million Jews....just because they belonged to a different race!On the other hand,it was Charles Darwin,the pioneering thinker,whose book 'The Origin of Species' revealed to the world the fundamental law of nature,namely 'Survival of the fittest'.Darwin studied hundreds of butterflies,beetles and birds and declared that species adapted their needs and appearances so as to survive in changing conditions.Diversity is Mother Nature's secret of survival.She does not differentiate between her offspring.Differences divide us...Diversity brings in affluent variety!Rainbow---a spectrum of delightful colours that choose to come together,each keeping their own identity yet all fused into one lovely arch--VIBGYOR.These colours hide in the white light that illuminates the world,but if we pressed them into a machine that squeezed their colour out,we would be left in plain,sombre darkness...Colourless!
