Khuli Aankh Andhe - Blind Eyes Wide-Open

Khuli aankh andhe the, moondhkar palken pal bhar me sab kuch saaf nazar aaya

English Translation:
I was blind eyes wide-open,
With the eyelids closed, in a flash, everything became clear

Punishment By Fate

Sometimes fate punishes us not for doing anything wrong,  but for failing to do what is right.

Stand in line - A Core American Value

The Conservatives in the USA seem accepting of immigrants who are naturally inclined to stand in line and wait their turn - whether in the store or at the border. It is indicative of the type of personality that is welcomed.

The majority in the USA cannot be 'guilt tripped' by accusing them of being racist to simply accept those that flout their laws blatantly. They are fed up by being forced to do so by social pressure of political correctness.

What made the USA truly great enough to be such a powerful magnet is this very culture of standing in line, waiting one's turn and accepting the rule of sensible laws of orderliness. That has been shattered and violated for long at the borders bringing in many indisciplined and savoury characters in addition to decent work seekers. Hence the current political climate.

Infinite Wisdom and Finite Wisdom

I get the feeling that God, in his infinite wisdom, has allocated a finite, fixed amount of wisdom for each species of life.

What do you think?
