There was a time when Bengalees, Punjabis, Gujaratis and
Tamils had their individual dressing styles, food styles, life styles, etc. But
now thanks to globalization often it becomes hard to identify one’s ethnicity at
first glance. Cross community marriages are happening in every other family and
Indians are approaching towards a harmonic mean (yes, pun intended). The inter-cultural
divides are gradually getting blurred.
Am I actually cribbing about this wonderful change where
communities are embracing each other with a comforting sense of alacrity? No. A
vehement no. But I do miss the originality of each different culture which
somehow I found to be refreshing.
Also, I do wonder whether we structured this change or are
we a victim of some cosmic plan that directs us all to reach the median value?
In geometry we learnt that as polygons increase their
number of sides they move towards becoming a circle.
Our weather too, once offering exciting extremes of biting
cold and parching heat is now progressing towards a warm tropical climate all
over.
We can never find a single example of randomness in the
universe…because the universal law wants our behaviour to remain within the
confines of a precise mathematical formula.
Do you get the drift? Nature does not like any one to stand
out. Nature does not want her children to be mottled with different shades. If
you are different from others cosmic designs will try to annihilate you.
Hey non conformist, don’t blame the people and the society. The
society likes you, the society respects you and even though it openly criticizes
you it secretly wants more people like you. You make our lives interesting; you
are the inspiration to break free from monotony. But alas the price you pay is
too high…the price is sheer obliteration…and most people cannot afford that.
