where is the world heading ?

why so many armies and all these weapons? To kill whom? why spend billions to maintain armies and make better weapons and not use that money for projects to improve standards of living world wide ? Instead of weapons why not research on solar power projects , water level rejuvenation ? why not water canals to irrigate 70% of world's wastelands? why is the world divided ? why so many borders ? why don't we all unite to create one world , with all our leaders as regional representatives to world parliament. What will these terrorists fight against then ? what will be the meaning of freedom struggle then ? who will need guns when all will have ample ? What will be need for armies when local security will do just fine ? what good are such learned men of power that decide for our fates as we watch our worlds suffering through their reckless decisions ? How many wars ? for what ? Oil? does it not kill us slowly ? why embrace religions with messages of love and belief in god and goodwill for the poor when we can not even hold hands ...? what stops us from trusting and living a life of sharing and caring for each other ? why do we need money ? why does anyone need more money than is required ? why do we have billions in steel vaults where it lies waste , when the world suffers from hunger ? what is the future of our children ? Will they see trees in museums too ? What is the cost of this madness ? is there a stop ?

1. Around the sun.
2. Revolving round the sun. There is no full stop to any of these. May be a comma, then my friend will come to my right and ask me , why so many punctuations. Even in those days when population was so low and their habitation sporadic there used to be severe combats. It is all a show of power. a show of arms and ammunition. Test fire of weapons. Rockets and sat elites. U boats and aircraft carriers. Have you ever noticed the rulers - Heads of states or nations wearing so may medals and badges like the magicians or ring masters and others in Circus. They all want to be supreme . more s, most s, like that. There are their fans shouting slogans in praise. There are their counterparts proclaiming their strength and their fans blowing the trumpets, All these things have become the order of the day. Anybody shouting against the routine will be called insane. The world will be going on like this only. We will be used to and forget the past - what they have done? what else other monarchs done in the earlier centuries? And so on and so forth all the issues will be brushed aside when another one pops up.
