ALL BORN EQUAL, HUMAN ARE WE...

World's plastic, Delhi is a higher derivative...

Oh you!! Stop just being puppets
to the society's trumpets,
Burn your plastic skin
Stop pleasing others akin...

It seems that the versatile use of poly vinyl chloride has increased the affinity of today's race towards it in manifold amounts. Now not only are people increasing it's use, but are instigated to act according to its physical attributes. You have to look into a projected personality to know the actual story....
Being a Delhi fanatic for the first eighteen yrs of my life, three yrs down south has totally changed the perspective of my outlook, though I don't irk I totally detest the way people judge and categorize individuals. The fake materialistic possessions mean everything to everyone here. No one looks beyond the superficial man. The materialistic props can dupe all, you are considered to be another form of God if one has the money to flaunt and possess everything that the supreme being never made.
FACE VALUE is all that matters in this part of the country. Starting from the brand u sport, the technologically savvy gadgets you carry and the speed you travel on is respected and prayed to. The illogical criteria an individual is judged on, is very logical to people here. It is the artificial fame they inherit by showing off something as immaterial as wealth. Though it might be the dependents biggest bliss, the joy of showing others the extent of dependency is craved for. The society has turned into a no self-respect one or do people misjudge self-respect in terms of the huge economic divide carved deeper by them.
M afraid, I really m will I get sucked into a culture so irrelevant as this. Can I make a pledge to people to change the way they look at things, no I ll make a fool of myself, might even be proclaimed as the not so lucky brats of the society. There exists discrimation, an esoteric divide not on basis of the age old titles.
KILL IT.. RISE ABOVE IT..

" Play one step lower and you can play three more chords"

Call me a kleptomaniac.... When it comes to people I respect, I tend to steal their words and make my own inferences. Thus derives the above quote which I use as the heading to this post. Jimmy Page said these words with respect to his field of interest. Technical music terms( which I myself am not very good at) defins this by justifying that if you play one step lower(D#) then you can play three more chords.
People sometimes say so much without knowing how relevant those words could be. Interpreting the above line with relevance to real life it means so much so that Jimmy Page himself would not have thought about. In this limited tenure of life if you play a step lower as in bring your ego(a difficult term to define) to bow down at times you could strike many more chords in life. We often try to prove something by striking higher than the rest, our self-esteem, attitude tend to force ourselves to fake our identity and achieve superficial satisfaction. If only we could stand strong and cut down on our plastic individualism we could win over many more strong strings of relations than enjoy the artificial respect we tend to gain by projecting, a not us.
A small game lost in the fight of our ego, would win us many more battles in life. Losing out on an instantaneous joy and making someone else feel happy about it does not make one insignificant in real terms. Win over people by losing to them, in the long run you would tend to gain a realistic respect.
