Its a Small World after all ..

This is probably the first thing one says when he/she encounters someone in the most unexpected place (and in all likelihood with someone he/she does not wish to be seen). Like an ad of Pepe Jeans once used to read " The world is filled with people we hope we will never meet.
So does the world become any smaller just because you run into someone you least expect. Naaah we all know better than that. We know for certain that its a big bad world out there......[how bad depends on how cynical you are and if you had any doubts on Big well google and you can find all the info you need.]
Then each one of us has our own world, our own sphere, totally governed by us. We fill it with whatever is dear to us, the people, the possessions, the choices, values, memories, decisions....... yada yada. We could call ourselves the CEO (a take on our ex-CM) of our own world. All of us have it, but only some of us know of such a world. Some of us have it cluttered with all possible things good, bad and ugly more like a mini-size version of original. While others have it plain not too much stuff, not too many people and pretty humdrum. And for the more complicated lot it oscillates between the two ... there is no dearth of possiblities.
One thing is certain though, with all the advancements in science and technology, progress in civilisation, business growth that we as the most advanced species are making the big world increasingly inhabitable and the personal space more stifling. Pollution, ozone layer depletion, endangered species, deforestation etc are more than enough to take their toll on mother earth and long work hours, stress due to relationships (and the subsequent expectations), deteriorating values, insensitivity, peer pressure, petty quarrels and many others are sufficient to ruin the peace and calm in our small little worlds.
Maybe its called a small world(small being the operative word) because we never seem to get the bigger picture. Hoping indeed that mankind does get worldly-wise!

i guess one steps outta the frame to see the whole picture.... people who do this are usually called crazy..... but then we being the victims of our desires are probably the craziest.... keep it going my lady....
