On the 5th anniversary of 9/11

Can there be a better time than the 5th anniversary of 911, to start thinking about politics 2.0? Lots of policies changed, lots of beliefs drained ...Stringencies loosened and lossenesss' tightened...Suddenly everybody knows where middle-east is and who Bin Laden is?. ..Not to mention the fact that lots of non-sports magazines and websites started popping up..and that too with a huge success....Does this mean that every country needs from time-to-time a tap on the head reminding it to re-think its policies against other countries, recapitate the ideals killed, start being skeptical about what might come? start recognizing the potential of silent waters?

I personally feel that 911 triggered the re-incarnation of US and many other countries....I don't justify such a cataclysmic event..Nor do I think that wrong policies can be only corrected via blood of thousands of innocent people...What I do think though is that these events are definitely a part of world-evolution....New definitions for "secularism" and "respect-for-other-humans" have emerged...World tends to move from an unsteady to steady state (or unsteady to less unsteady state)...Suddently everybody starts thinking cohesively...cities unite..states shake hands...and countries hug...Everybody wants to fight the evil..Definitions of evil changes....suddenly rapists/killers/child-molestors loose their status of being the worlds worst people...So the question now emerges..what's next? Is this state of peaceful equilibrium indeed in equilibrium or its one of those less-disequilibrium states waiting for more events to occur...Had evil been demolished or has it just been hibernated..

For we cannot tarry here, We must march my darlings, we must bear the brunt of danger, We the youthful sinewy races, all the rest on us depend, Pioneers! O pioneers! O you youths, Western youths, So impatient, full of action, full of manly pride and friendship, Plain I see you Western youths, see you tramping with the foremost, Pioneers! O pioneers! Have the elder races halted? Do they droop and end their lesson, wearied over there beyond the seas? We take up the task eternal, and the burden and the lesson, Pioneers! O pioneers! All the past we leave behind, We debouch upon a newer mightier world, varied world, Fresh and strong the world we seize, world of labor and the march, Pioneers! O pioneers! We detachments steady throwing, Down the edges, through the passes, up the mountains steep, Conquering, holding, dari

Impossible

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.
