Pardesh

अब मैं राशन की कतारों में नजर आता हूँ,
अपने खेतो से बिछड़ने की सजा पता हूँ.

इतनी महंगाई के बाजार से कुछ लाता हूँ,
अपने बच्चो में उसे बाँट के शर्माता हूँ.

अपनी नींदों का लहू पोछने की कोशिश में,
जागते जागते थक जाता हूँ, सो जाता हूँ.

कोई चादर समझ के खींच न ले फिर से कही,
मैं कफ़न ओढ़ के फुटपाथ पे सो जाता हूँ.

There have been many instances in our life when we are all alone, felt like isolated from the rest of the world. I think the feeling of loneliness and the ‘world’ is somewhat interrelated. We can not be alone if we had never lived in a world, flourishing with human civilizations. But the next question comes to my mind, - Is it that we need only humans to fill the void spaces? Can’t we have some other living beings (a pet dog for example) to fill that void space?
As per me I think that filling the voids with humans, decreases the scope of having good/appreciable permeability in our life, although we might be happy to have good enough porosity in the bulk. Iam very sorry that Iam using these geology/petroleum terminologies, which might be out of scope for some readers, but I can’t help. May be Iam so adamant to use these words, because rite now Iam myself feeling so alone….I just don’t care…!!!!!
Well, how do you actually define loneliness….and then your AIM !!! I think that most of the times we think of any aim, because we think that our peers are thinking of or have their aim, which is a good one…!!! ( too many thinks !!)
Sometimes, this question also remind me of a hindi movie ‘ Tare Zameen Par’. It a movie about a dyslexic 8 year old boy, whose parents blame him for not studying, and all of sudden he finds himself all alone in a boarding school, horribly depressed with a shattered …self confidence…He was left all alone in his life, his parents were also not able to understand him. What aim could he have in his life..??
According to me, in this situation I would not be in a condition to think of my aim. Totally adamant, frustrated, depressed…to set any aim. The world without any living being but me…would be almost the same situation as with that boy.
I have an aim, because having that aim and striving to achieve that aim makes me happy. But this happiness is of a secondary level, the primary ones; I get from the people surrounding me, the world around me, and the environment around me. Until and unless I have this primary level of happiness, I don’t think I will strive for my secondary happiness.
Although my comment about this question might seem to be very confusing, but it reflects nothing but the state of my mind, which has gone into a state of virtual comma, about thinking/ imagining of a situation like this.
