RE: You can't choose your neighbours

in #neighbours5 months ago

Your words really hit home. This text captures the frustration, exhaustion and grief, that we have carried as a nation since... 1947? Sometimes dealing with unreasonable neighbours and at times being turned into a scapegoat in the global game of power.

restraint must be practised

Time has shown, it's a foreign concept to neighbouring clowns.

What if our ancestors never lived in the Indian sub-continent, but in a far off island. 😶‍🌫️

Sort:  

Restraint must be practiced.

The French say:
Elegance is restraint.

Time has shown — it’s a foreign concept to the neighbouring clowns.

Well, they also lack elegance… which, ironically, is such a core value in our own faith too.

What if our ancestors never lived in the Indian subcontinent, but on some far-off island?

Ah! Maybe my heart would still have yearned for this watan. Who knows 🫣


On a serious note, as weisser-rabe said, these are indeed strange and chaotic times geopolitically. There is little sense or sensibility left. The policymakers, the hierarchy — they all seem to have lost their minds.
Or maybe… it’s evolution of its own kind. Whatever the case, these aren’t peaceful times — not for the mind, not for the heart, and certainly not for the world we’re leaving behind.
