catching the ram

It is interesting how a game in a so-called "uncivilised" world becomes so relevant and so in sync with the times of the civilised. We are all running around trying to catch the ram. For groups of us, the ram is the same. Simultaneously, different versions of the same game are being played by all of us. What is even more interesting is that on quite a few occassions we oursleves play the ram. We all run after what we love most without any consideration for the perspective of the entity itself. We are all stuck in consequent races and runs while assuming different roles. Its not sad. its not exhilerating. It cannot really be described by any emotion in the English Dictionary. The closest word that comes to it is probably 'confused'. One big mess. And it is this confusion that drives us around - that disappoints us, irritates us, pushes us further, makes us give up. In all our efforts at evolution and the increasing the power of the human brain, we still pursue something we are not really aware of - atleast I am not aware of (if someone else is then please do tell me). We still do not know whether we run for money, love, lust, family or just plain survival. But even without this knowledge we keep running - running in fear of the fact that we might not be able to achieve the unknown if we stop, running with hope of some arbitrary ray of light spelling it out for us, running because we have nothing better to do in life. But then again, there could be an alternative we've overlooked in our incessant running. Brilliant.
