WORRIED FOR WORRIES

“You are looking a bit worried.” The guy killed the silence which was accompanied me till the previous second.
I looked at him and asked “Who are you?”
He introduced himself as a FOOL (I really LOL) and asked me what I’m worrying for?

We’ve not got a single gold medal in Olympics. The whole INDIA is praying so hard for this. I’m sure you’ll be also longing for that. The Chinese are way far ahead than us. It’s really a shame.

The Fool laughed at me and said I don’t see a point to worry or feel shameful for this.
“Then you’re not an Indian” said angry myself.
“May be”, he smiled and continued “Is there any other thing you’re worrying for?”

I don’t know what made me answer him again may be the curiosity to know where he is heading to.

I said I’m upset with the Indian squad for T20 WC.
Oh! Man. What else you’re worrying for?
Look at the Indian film industry….   All are copy cats… Don’t have original ideas… Copying from American, European, Korean movies……
Politics everywhere… Worst politicians ever in the world….

“Hmm… This really makes me worry”, Fool.
“Politics?” I asked.
“No, the reasons behind your worries. Do you know the rain fall this year is 21% less than usual.” Said the Fool
I asked “What difference it’s going to make? Anyhow India will remain as the same poor country. ”

I’m sure that you know India is an agricultural country. This decreased rain fall will remove thousands of farmers from agriculture, food prices will be rocketing and hundreds of farmers will suicide.
Government forecasts 350+ villages will be in trouble because of this. Hunger deaths may happen.
I’m sure you don’t know and don’t mind this as far as you are not affected.He continued.

You use FB, Google?
Of course.
“They know more about you than you do, you know?” he said.
“That’s for best user experience you Fool”, I yelled.
“Don’t forget they are American Products,  which means America has Indians Personal Data” he continued.

“Things I said are just drops from Ocean. Do you really have to worry for sports, cinema and all?” the Fool asked and disappeared.

I, the real Fool asked myself “Am I really worrying for what I should worry for?”

You may ask what’s going to happen if we worry.
I feel there is no harm in worrying for these things instead of those useless sports, cinema and politicians.
Our worries are not going to change anything but we should the reasons for our worries.
