The Games People Play...

Read a news report on The Independent . I was wondering if any thought was spared at all to those numerous families that will continue to be separated by a man-made boundary, to those young kids who will never find the love of one parent just because a few megalomaniacs calling themselves 'leaders' supported a narrow minded political view with a statistical game.

The votes in favour of this move were 6:5. ONE goddamned vote decided the fate of so many families. Like I always say... I cant help but laugh at the ridiculousness of man's thinking. We have this whole planet and all its beauty to cherish, but NO, we want to segregate ourselves into nations and stop people from moving around. And then we want to divide ourselves into states and provinces and fight some more. And if that is not enough we want to group ourselves into religions, sects and what not and fight even more.

It's strange that even after 3 millennia of "civilization" mankind has not learnt to overcome parochialism and live in peace & harmony. We have been fighting in name of nations, religions, ideologies but still can't see the futility of all this hatred. Sheer ignorance but utterly frustrating!
