I Wonder

           I used to watch a lot of cartoons when I was young, actually when I think about it, I used to watch a lot of cartoons, anyway coming back to this blog, I vaguely remember some cartoon in which the bad guy said that he'd reform the universe in his own image which got me thinking.
         What if this universe or putting it mildly the earth that we live in is made is the image of someone? I mean look at the various time periods in history, we started of with a big bang, someone got banged, mistook it for gas and pop cane out the planets and the starts and the planet earth fell into place. For some time, it was still and had little to no movement inside till it decided to start moving around and make things inside it. Earth came to life with a simple cell, which evolved into various other species.
          As a toddler, Earth was rather peaceful and would stay busy in itself evolving more and more species. As it grew older, a little more intelligent creatures like us humans came into the picture, but we weren't smart back then. The Earth astounded us and gave us everything required for our survival. The Earth had everyone under check back then and was more organised as a child, the bacteria made its own food, the algae ate bacteria, the fish ate the algae, then came us Humans eating smaller animals and plants and at times if we got lucky we ate a dino, and then dinos ate us and they weren't large in numbers (the carnivores) so everything was balanced.
         Then somehow our planet got a cold and we had an ice age for some time, and also I think that there was this asteroid that wiped out the dodo, and other big dinosaurs. Earth was careless and we humans took control of the planet. Somehow because of the disappearance of the dinosaurs and the dodo, we started roam and soon we were everywhere.
         The Earth soon hit puberty and became rebellious in nature and made the humans rebellious too as soon there were wars, people fighting to rule the world, more wars and death everywhere, people learned about democracy and others things after the death of millions of people. Also the Earth got sick once again and the plague swept a large part of the Earth's population.
         The adolescence passed and the Earth became stable again and the humans rebuild whatever was left after the war. Now that we are in the 21st century, I like to think about it as the Earth is 21 years old and is now giving humans ideas for a better, brighter future. Earth is also showing the signs of decay and growing old and we humans see of it as global warming. 

Silence...

          So lately my friend has been giving me the silent treatment and I was trying to figure out a way how make her talk. During all the ideas that I got and all the plotting and scheming I realised that I could not make her budge as silence was a very powerful tool, especially when used properly. 

          Silence is a powerful thing indeed, it could help you attain peace or it could make you go crazy. Silence signifies many things like giving or paying respect, accepting ones fault and apologising for the same, to show that you are at peace with yourself and with your surroundings. 

          Everyone in their lifetime has been caught doing something that should have not been doing and in the process have been scolded for the same. People remain silent while accepting the punishment to show that they feel guilty for going what they did and that they would try and not do that thing again.

          Silence at funerals is a way of showing respect to the departed and hoping that the soul finds its way to become one with the universe. Silence while praying is to give undivided and unparalleled attention to the prayer and to pray with all the soul.

          Silence at most of the situation in our lives is a necessity as it provides you with peace of mind that is unattainable else wise I my sled prefer to be silent and go around doing my work as it makes me relax and work more efficiently. Silence it a other side of coin which contains both communication and silence. Some people prefer the side of communication while some prefer the silence side of the coin, They go hand in hand, a person has to be silent to listen to what the other person is trying to say. No one can listen and talk at the same time. If there was no silence in this world, all there would be is noise and the human race would perish faster than the dodo.

          I guess what I am trying to emphasise is that people should be more silent and listen to other people instead of going on and on about their own problems, try to listen to the birds chirping and the leaves rustling when the wind blows them and maybe by remaining a little silent, people might actually listen to their own inner conscious and be at peace, the only way one can be silent is by staying quiet. 

         Complete silence is not possible, you could achieve complete silence only when you dead or you go deaf, the only way a person can be silent and still stay alive is by trying to remain quiet and that is by people say that it sometimes it is best to stay quiet. 

Oh and as per my friend is concerned, I am pretty sure that she would be okay after we eat some chicken later.
