Bye Bye Pluto



Farewell speech for our beloved PLUTO..



My heart pains today as we bid our final goodbye to cute little planet from the far end of our system. It has been a member our elite family of planets for last 76 years. Kids all over the world pictured it as little cool thing moving differently than other of its kind. Long before I could understand gravity and its sucking nature the orbit of pluto fasinated me. It looked to me as a rebel following a different path all together. It seemed to me as an acheiver who marked its presence within big boys and that also going by its own rule. Crossing over others orbits did make it a bit rogue but it was different and visionaries are unique. It didn't had the size but the attitude .
When I first read about it being a life less ice cold planet I was a bit disappointed but slowly could appreciate the amazing journey it makes through our solar system. It travels the most and perhaps have seen more than our giant planets. I got more respectful of it and its patience became a source of inspiration.
Now when textbooks will be rewritten it will no longer be there. Kids a few years later will not remember it and it will be gone. Oh! cruel world you have killed another rebel! But it has been a fighter and perhaps long after this civilization is gone it will come back as a rebel to challenge us again. Till then Bon Voyage!!!!!!

Socialism and Individualism

I have discussed and debated at length about pros and cons of Socialism and Individualism with lots of people and have gained a lot from these conversations. I just want to summarize my views on these two contrasting systems. Individualism as a system emphasize on individual freedom, choice and reward over group laws and rules where as the socialism requires preference of social obligations over individual choice and freedom. Anyone can point out numerous flaws in both the systems in isolation but these two system can hardly survive of their own. It is the relative density of these two systems among cultures which decide its fate. We can observe various societies and nation states around the globe and conclude that political and social forces determine the density of either of the systems. Now the question arises what is a perfect mix for maximizing well being among all humans. If we increase individual or capitalistic pursuit we will have a free market society. This system will reward...

Morality..

Have you ever pondered why is morality necessary in life? Why our parents want us to be truthful, honest and humble. Why do we hate liars and hypocrites? Why there are numerous stories about the virtue of Good and how every time good wins over the evil in the long run. Are we good because there is an almighty god looking over us and we will be burnt in hell if we do something bad. Are people in general good because they are afraid of God. To me we are more good than evil because that is a logical thing to do. "Good" here i must emphasize symbolizes the greater good of our civilization and human race. It may be relative on an individual basis but on a macro scale being good or having all the positive qualities we hear about is logical and in fact very necessary for the very survival. Imagine a world where its OK to rob your neighbor and bring home their money and goods. With the same logic it should also be OK when one of our neighbors mugged us up. You can clearly visualize ...
