I’m Listening to Giggles around …
when deep down south, in the land of Pure, people are dying. Death is not the separation of soul from body alone. Snatching of all the worldly ways of earning, your home, and all what you’ve earned in years and years within moments is Death too.
Devastation hits and kills … follow a simple path … a simple rule! And we keep on thinking, don’t worry … let’s go on with our lives. This one’s just not big enough to grab hold of our thoughts, our superficial words … let alone the help. But are tragedies ever small?? When we live through a shocking experience of earthquake in October’ 2005 … why are we just not tuned to what parts of us are tragically experiencing now?
Pictures don’t affect rightly as live emotions do. Was seeing the wide-spread devastations on TV when an elderly sardar of a jhal broke into tears and apart from kiya batayoon? he couldn’t tell more … I’m disappointed in myself … I’m disappointed at everyone around … !
Congrats … finally we’re NUMB to feel any thing – death, cries, thirst, hunger, loss … immaterial things they are.
I’m happy in my world … I’ll celebrate the death … I won’t let these stupid emotions take over my numb-self again … I’ll laugh with the people giggling around!
Ahh so true .. we don’t have the heart to feel the pain of others. That’s why we have been occupied by the rulers alike .. that’s why we are not the nation which can change itself ..
To be absolutely honest, unless one can find a way to help, there is no point being sad at others’ plight.
Even the smallest of efforts could go a long way towards reducing the suffering of those faced with nature’s fury. Look around. Some charitable organisation might be collecting stuff like old clothes or unused medicines, etc. You might also want to make monetary contributions to any organisation that you trust. Once you have located the organisations, you might want to publish the contact details on your blog, so that others can also send in their contributions.
So, laugh and be happy, by all means. It should actually enhance your ability to be of service to those in need.
That’s one perspective..another is that most of us r so much surrounded by our own problems and worries that we hardly get a chance to pay heed to the tragedies which we have not been affected by and even if we do we prefer mourning on our own plight than on others’
But in either case (that is in the one mentioned by u or me) the level of numbness and indifference is increasing
May Allah (SWT) have mercy on us all and may He guide us all!
