The Transportation Situation in Kathmandu

Image
Every day the commuter in Kathmandu needs to go through hectic travel to and fro the workplace, college/school, and home. Not only is the travel long, but it is also dangerous. The vehicles are too small to accommodate a large number of passengers and those which are big enough are also too few. The cost paid is also not scientifically fixed, though on the surface it seems to be generally acceptable.  As a common commuter one needs to make a plan while traveling. It is a blessing to reach your destination on time and without looking like a warrior who has survived a ruthless war. One needs to prepare an hour to reach a destination that can be reached in half. Also, s/he should be mentally and physically prepared. Despite the strict regulations, there are loopholes like the number of passengers or maximum weight a vehicle should not cross. Conductors are encouraged to lie about the seats available and the time one can reach the destination. The right to information is breached. Als

The power of money

( https://www.saatchiart.com/art/Photography-A-O-The-Color-of-Money-Power-Within-Limited-Edition-1-of-25/800065/4397104/view ) Money can open doors. Especially the white money. Imagine! You can reach the infinite space and watch the home planet where we live in. Just with a couple of hundred grand, you can buy a ticket and according to latest report just with a whopping sum of 15 million dollars, there is a space travel package! That includes 5 days to be trained and certified for an “Extravehicular Activity,” otherwise called a spacewalk.  Well, not only to travel to places mankind has just started to explore but the entirety of the globe, money is a must. You can have breakfast in Tokyo, lunch in Paris, and dinner in New York, truly a cosmopolitan man! The depth of the ocean or the highest mountain; nothing is impossible to reach and explore when you have bought your very own personal submarine and hired a dozen of the best Sherpa's as your personal guide.  You can&

Theory of No Return

Image
( https://www.quora.com/What-is-spaghettification ) The perceived belief of time and resources; precisely energy as infinite is untrue. Such belief and the action resulting from it by the economic man on the basis of resources divided in terms of the long and short term may seem well to put bluntly arrogant, what could be more precise is that such is not limited to the time they are used but the intrinsic value they contain at present and the future. As resources once exploited can never return back to that which was original (seemingly indefinite for the economic man). Even the continuous life cycles of living beings change over time; with either evolution or mutation. The monkey of hundreds of millions of years ago and the ones now living are psychologically as well as physically very different and so is the environment they live in. The past being has to let go of their vestigial organs for the sake of survival which is also the case for the energy that fuels life as we know it.  

Who are we?

In my experience, we are not what others think of us as, and most importantly in many instants, they are dead wrong to assume who we are. We are not what we look at or the moods we are in when we interact with second-third or fourth parties. We are neither the reserved or impolite fools lurking in the dark. We are just not too enthusiastic about the ordinary tidings of the people who are busy in their all too colorful busy life. And with more soul-searching are we truly who we think ourselves to be? The memories of the past; the pleasurable and the painful, all shape us to be the person who we are now, through the actions we so naturally accomplish without fore-thought. Perhaps, the identity we are given from birth and that which we have accepted as given truth if we take a moment to reflect does it truly does justice to what we feel ourselves as to be?  How wrong can we be to assume and not be always sure of who we are? For some, we are brother, father, sister, lover, teacher, s

Life

The most wonderful miracle ever known to mankind, Life. With its up's and down's, the chaotic echelon to the calm depth of the heartland, an exciting short adventure to the boring long siesta...it continues on, uncaring...selfish...cruel, and at times surprisingly kind. Little is it without complexity, for complexity is what life is, and like anything and everything that is ever known, life, as we know, are, is always difficult at every new phase/stage from the point of birth, pre-teen, teen, adult and old stage and eventually the final excruciating farewell...ah how we try to hold on... til the last breath, despite the pride in our inherent rationality which we were so proud of,,, once.  The best thing of life is its depth...be it the colorful sights that tantalizes the eyes, or the harmonious music of different instrument played in a symphony or that rare taste of the exotic cuisine you never had before or the familiar sweet aroma of the morning tea/coffee...that is lif

Happiness

Happiness is a beautiful word with a beautiful meaning; to finally be one with true joy as well be glad to just be alive. It is simple but not so simple. The reason is happiness is always scarce and is momentary than lengthy boredom or melancholy. Still, when it comes as a surprise it makes the hardship worth a thousand times more. We are always over-complicating things as they are. Thus tending to make the situation worse and perceiving worse and feel the despair of losing control. A failure in a relationship, in business, or even just a daily chore is very taxing to both mind and body but if you are passionate about being happy you could see the brighter side of those failures and choose it to be a motivating factor to do it again with a different approach and find happiness with eventual success. High expectation is a kill-joy and so is the narrow perception of just effort and result...is it not more realistic to just live the moment and enjoy the time spent during the activity.
