Parochial Thinking (Differences-1)

I am searching for some answers...almost all of them, I know will never be answered because I will have to assimilate them from mundane world around...I believe that is a step towards “maturity” but still some of these questions disturb me a lot at this stage of my life.

We all are so different…differences in thinking, assessing things, differences in outlook in dictates of conscience. Why is every human so different from the other even if bred under same condition same habitat exactly same surroundings, some times same parents…is it that delicate combinations of genes that happens after procreation or is it imbibing of the world around and then ramifying it into understanding. Why majority of us have a very parochial outlook…why a higher conscience level lacks in majority. Why is the diorama so narrow for most of us?

A witty friend of mine spoke spontaneously “Khanti is it that some people have a spiritual instincts or is it abundance of time that few lucky ones have in this world that they are drawn towards abstract things, coz if they were busy they would never have thought over such things”

I almost laughed on his comment but then sometime after realized even if there was an iota of truth in his words then it could have been answer to one of my questions. But then I thought that many individuals around have idle time which they spend in boozing, womanizing, tourism or any kind of recreation. Even they can opt for such abstract thinking but no they chose a different way…and hence there is some thing as “higher conscience” “spirituality”, “thinking that draws a few out of a lambs walk.

p.s.: Lambs walk is a very relative term here. It is just one aspect of many, many things that people choose to walk with the crowd. They might not be with the crowd in many other issues so please don’t generalize Lambs walk...it’s a Relative term...my next blog will be on RELATIVITY.
