As to how rich are responsible?
Its answer is in rampant consumerism and fundamental capitalistic mode of speculation and accumulation of wealth and concentration of wealth in a few elites,politicians,bureaucrats, corporate entities, powerful feudal and wealthy corrupt mullahs and all those who exploit the resources of society to enrich themselves at the cost of others.A poor man can not take loan of mere thousands but a mill owner can take billions and run away without paying it even. ( The present bailouts of West are also sophisticated tools of the same mentality).
Knowledge control , power control, elitist social hierarchy deny talented the right to education, health, and a decent code of life.Is the world's resources for few or for whole of humanity?Should a weak person be deprived of whatsoever he has or help him to earn more?Why WTO asks fro Free Trade and rich dole out subsidies of thousands and put pressure on poor to deny this right?Who eats, consumes , wastes resources and then says , it is my skill and then says poor are poor because they do,nt work!
Who controls sources of wealth and who develops public ideas? Who exploits African mines and gold and keeps those poor? Who buys products and raw materials at lower prices and then sells at exorbitant profits ?Who makes laws to legalize the in-just divides of wealth and power structure in society?( I do,nt believe on communist ideology of state control... it is another name of exploitation. )
Who wants to sell GM food to poor people?Who forced farmers to grow coffee in Africa and destroyed local economies and made them dependent upon greed of corporate entities?
Why suddenly prices of oil and food items are going down?Who gambles and speculates in stock exchange?Poor people?Who works hours and hours to produce and who remains poor even after 10-15 years of service but the owners build many more factories?Who wants to sell Lux and Fair n Lovely to poor who have no clean water to drink?
there is old Urdu saying leray fauj nam serkar ka( Military fights but kudos to Government.)!so is our present age, where exploitation is justified on the bases of innovation, free market economy, capitalism and free world.Power is logic here and we should accept this dark fact, if we accept the rot then may be we can try to change it.

Time flies!
Another year has passed and many many more years will pass till the time comes when only love will remain and time will merge with love and will express itself in its glory.
The process and journey continues and the time will keep on changing and perspectives will be happening and unfolding itself in a mosaic of ever changing landscape of our imagination and limitations of our own understanding!

Sleepless Nights!
I dream of sleep and when I sleep I dream of being awoken! I chase the shadows which have not risen yet and I construct the shadows in my heart and they pierce deep in my soul to lacerate myself .
The pangs of searching the destination and yearning for a journey of a free destination allude me like the mirage alludes the passengers in desert.
I can not look beyond my ownself and can think of stars beyond the comprehension and reach of human gadgets... so is my expanse less than a grain of sand and vaster than the entire universe. I am in journey , a joureny which has begun since times immemorial and will end at indefinite limits of time.
The imagination dwarfs myself in eyes of action and ideas rage like a jungle fire to overcoem myself and my environs to transform the nothingness into being and absurdity at the same time. The duality of action and action is in my spirit and I am grappling with this giant since I was born in physical essence and in spiritual realm thousands of years ago and in future with its own limits of extrapolation and inertia at the same time. I am steeped in between flight and stagnation , my steps are moving backward and forward at the same time..........oh I am not moving! But this immobility soon will pass and from behind the dark clouds sun will rise and htere will be light. The ligth will enlighten me and my surroundings and wait will be over as finding oneself in light is the essence of search ... and search continues. It neevr stops , even inertia is a stage of search..
