“Wow, it is a great point. You know what I feel it is a regretting point about the modern age, burning the petrol in seconds that takes millions of years to come into existence. The extinction of such global treasures seems the earnings of the professionals. It seems the morphine of obeying God and accepting His Will is for the sensitive and God fearing people, while the law and order is to defend others, who get the benefits and preach others for tolerance. The Asia is the region, where messenger of peace of most of the religions and the faiths of the world came to help the humanity, but now it is a place of armed forces and the weapons and people here seem terrorists, though most of them seem to defend the ancient way of living. Unfortunately, it does not seem to support the modern science, technology, industry and trade, which is spreading the pollution, which may remain on the globe for thousands of years to come, child dying, while the elders are living a better life, is not it,” he says.

“Yaw, you see it is irony of the modern age. The freedom of abortion…” I say.

“Hey, are you against abortion?” he asks.

“Well, you see I am not talking about the controversial point of the abortion, my point is different, I am talking about the vitality and the fertility. You see we seem to have made the life low in fertility as the species are having lesser count in the food chain. The females, like earth, when they go through abortions, it damages the health, the males cannot experience it. It is same with the sensitive people; the professionals may not experience the abortion of emotions and the damaged sensitivity. However, time is a good healer, we will slowly learn the ethics, laws and the principles of nature slowly to live happy and the natural life, as we learning to eat less sweets and the salts, is not it,” I say.

“Yaw, it seems that as a social worker and research worker, you simply want to say that without the modern developments the world could have been a natural place, without any pollution and high greed for money, as if the grabbing level. It is regrettable that while there are certain people or the communities, which are labeled as the terrorists, though they seek the their identity as a member of world family. The aborigines and the other ancient along with the natural way of living from thousands of years seem an anti-modern and antisocial as the modernization does not seem to accept that all wish to preserve the cultures and the customs. The pornography on the Internet does not help the human civilization to become civilized, this one of the factor, which if one opposes seems a backward. However, there is a need to pause and think about it, is not it,” he says.

            He looks at me, we pause and remember our past, we know it is same; the difference is only in the name and the place, not the experiences.
