My Inspiration
My Inspiration
Chaand Ke Paar chalo……….. I remember very well in my childhood, my grandmother used to tell stories about an old woman spinning on moon, and poems expressing desire of moon to get a new dress. As I grew up, I found moon to be an inspiration for many poets who will compare the beauty of their beloved with the moon. But today even girls know a comparision with moon points out a scar on their face. Then came the knowledge that on July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon where he said these well-known words, "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind”. It might have been wild imagination for man for years to have an abode on moon,and inspired many songs and poems like “ chand ke paar chalo………..” but few people have stepped in to cash on desires of people . I was reather amused to see this article “Indian buys plot on moon for $140 Mar 27, 2005HYDERABAD: An entrepreneur here seems to be over the moon for having bought a five-acre lunar plot and has the legal deed to endorse the claim though how he plans to live there is still a mystery. "If it is not possible during my life time, may be in the next generation," says Rajeev V Bagdi who bought the plot of land on the moon through an Internet transaction for USD 140. (India Times, India)” Who knows tomorrow we will be found when asked about our weekend plans, saying” Kuch Nahin, bas Chand tak ja rahe the.”
