Long ago, there used to be a time when man-kind had this belief that they have the courage and necessary strategic plans to outcast the holocaust of nature. This may be the reason that from cave-man to high collared techie we’ve escalated with time. This nature has been mother-like affectionate to us on one side as well as it has also shown the tormenting sight of a gigantic slayer. Now, you see so much technology and so much advancement still we’ve to remain standstill. We, especially Indians, frequently say one phrase that ‘Kal Kisne Dekha!’ and at this point in our life it’s the perfect line to summarize our present-day life.
As an amateur explorer of life, I often wonder how limited our thinking is that we dare to gaze beyond the known horizon. It seems like the reality of today knocking our consciousness and saying ‘let's see how far your inventions, science, technology, and religion can go to save the world’. Everything we’ve discovered to date indeed carries its importance but it’s also true that we’ve discovered nothing to understand this world as a whole. Our efforts have fallen short to realize that there is something more powerful than us and it can cut off all our plans, ambitions and passions in just a flick of a second.
Today, that moment of our life has arrived when we can let go of what we possess to gain the grace of summer rain and to cherish the beauty of running water. To conclude one thing I can say that whenever the entire humanity suffered from the curse of nature some men stood up like warriors, believed in their instinct and shown the world a new ray of light a glimpse of hope. Most often, these men are unknown or less known to the entire world but they are the most important part of humanity as they show us how unimportant we are in front of this remarkable creation.
