The Criers!

By AlatiphA - July 19, 2014

There was a saying that East, West, Home is the best. But this is no more as one's home may be his or her most dangerous place to dwell. He or she will not be free from wars, rumours of wars, bombs killing, poverty and sundry negative issues, which have characterised the world and made different people to become criers in their respective capabilities. Home is where one is free from damages. Many have full cause for crying, because they are afraid of what the next minute would bring to them. Many are criers in their heart without showing off their beautiful teeth or have to clean up their faces, while others do. The former set of people grief and wear the flaws of their heart around.But no matter that they do not shed tears, when you see them, agony has shown all over them. Stanley Elkin, in his "Criers & Kibitzers, Kibitzers & Criers", writes that there's something comforting, almost soothing, about realism, and it has nothing to do with shocks of recognit...

The Laughers!

They do not care to find the inner peace, which creates the ability for the world's people to live in harmony with them. But is laughter not also a rejoinder of both aggravation and overtiredness?

The world is such a wonderful place blessed by nature, but cursed by man. Man is parasitic and has dislocated the world from its original form forthe lucre of economic interest. It has become obvious that people are ever ready to sacrifice the World in the manner that Dalai Lama describes the actions of human beings against the world in the following sentences: Man sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. Then he is so anxious about the future that he doesn't enjoy the present: the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived. The world is suffering a lot of things at the same time today, because of man's subtraction from nature. Man feels that words and ideas can change the world, without minding the detriments he was to incur. There was nothing wrong with the world; man is the problem with the world. Walter Russell, ...
