Indifference??

The enormous ability to give up, something which may have a huge consequence turns immaterial. Does it allow to forget or it only procrastinates the storm that is about to reach. Or, is it mere selfishness, for it is inconsequential only if it does not affect me, directly. Indirectly it may, but as far as I am away from it, it doesn’t. It seems like another dimension, where I do not want to be. Am I running away?? Maybe!! Or rather, I may already be away. Indifferent!! But indifference is a saintly quality, is it not?? I once said,

…besides, no one likes Saints…

But now I ask, is it worth the condemnation??

Helplessness, might be an excuse, but unwilling, sense of not doing anything is something else. I am not on fire as long as the fire does not reach me, even if it is beside me, I am fine, as long as I am sure it won’t reach me.

But what do I do, if or when it reaches me??

Will I still be indifferent, insensitive or I will run away, like I am now. Will I be able to run away ?? Only until,may be,  the conscience within me rises again,and deplores me or reproaches me, until I decide to go back again, and fight my own fight.

Until then, it seems, I am just an observant, sitting in my cushy seat, being as if I am not the part of it!!

  1. What r u indifferent towards?
    If there was a single hint in this post that would have answered this question, then maybe we would have understood it better. And then maybe we would have been able to respond/suggest/comment in a better way.

    I understand that these r “random thoughts” but perhaps once in a while u can answer certain queries by your readers…

  2. After re-reading the post, I realize that it has come up exactly the way it should have been!! I believe it has expressed everything that it had to, and disguised everything which it had too…!!!
