Dust in the wind

The rains are almost here ,treks, weekend rides,weekend gateaways, I ought to be looking forward to it but as always I have begun to devalue it already, what can possibly be wrong with the rains ? Dont you know how many homeless people live on the streets where will they go, what about hawkers they will struggle to feed their kids.

Near my house a old man sits on the footpath, he has been abandoned by his kids and now he and his wife somehow manage to make both ends meet. He fixes shoes, his wife I dont know , she would be working as a maid at best.

With the rains coming where will he go ? and if he falls ill ?

Idle thoughts really, I am not going to do anything abt it, as I have not done a million times before... Its thoughts like these that take the whole meaning out of this world, whats the point in all these ? Or better just accept it ,,
hmm, remember that Scorpions song ... Dust in the wind .. really thats all there is to this world


I close my eyes
Only for a moment and the moment's gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

Now, Don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind

All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind


. Enjoy the rains, you have been waiting for it.
