Nature’s Fury

This video shared by a friend today reminds me of watching the movie Twister in 90’s. Not sure about the authenticity of this video but,

it is tough to handle when people mess too much with it.

No personal wealth, health or the nations GDP, economy, borders and military can save.

It knows no boundaries and has no partiality towards any religion, region, caste, creed and gender.

It respects no political boundaries and doesn’t need to be politically correct.

Everything that we keep giving too much credence to the human progress scientific or social is an eyewash when the nature is furious and it will do what it needs to do…

Hit Refresh

My in-laws are moving to another home this week. This morning i enquired with my mother-in-law about the progress of the packing. She said it is pretty much done since a lot of junk that got piled up over the years has been discarded now. She was happy that the moving process helped them clear unnecessary junk that got piled up over the years.

It got me thinking. Isn’t it the same with our lives in general as well?
