Are we progressing?

Everybody seem to be fighting these days for a simple reason: everyone want others to follow THEIR views. Nobody wants to understand the other person’s POV. It’s all about do as they say, think as they think & live as they live.

This is the 21st century and we are progressing. But are we going the right way? Progressing in the wrong direction does no good. As I ponder upon this, a few thoughts come to mind:

We’ve made our path

and are marching ahead;

with adamant minds in the way

and some tears unshed

We’ve made our society

and we are defining it,

we stick to our traditions

and thoughts confining it.

Those who dare to question

are looked down upon.

Why there is no place for the new?

Tell me someone, comeon!

Tradition is good,

but it changes with time,

adapt to the change

and let the society shine.

Blindly following a path

will lead you nowhere!

It’s like a relation where

love is devoid of care.

You have to pay a price

to live your own dream;

no one accepts it

tough, it might seem.

Something has to be done

to bring this change,

with no disrespect

and gaining no avenge.

Learn to see the difference,

learn to be the difference,

respecting all views

and enjoying their essence.

Make your own path

follow it your way;

don’t force it upon others

just let them be, on their own way.
