I am scared like a DUST!

a speck of dust on the busy Chowringhee crossing in Calcutta is under the constant threat of being spat upon by a Pan chewing Rickshaw driver or the Businessman who just got a call when his mouth was 'full' .... this fear is so similar to the fear of a common man being looked down upon by everyone around .....be it a rich chap or poor, he feels that everyone around him is scheming just to make his life more painful than it already is.....the fear is of people.........very typical of most people living in this part of the world.....why?...i am still thinking and your comments will help...

a speck of dust hidden in a crevice on the pavement of Crown Pointe Parkway in Atlanta is scared that the shrub trimming vehicle will suck it out while sucking the dead leaves and cut shrubs. it is not scared of other people trampling on it...because people hardly walk the pavement. However it is petrified that the 'system' will weed it out and make it a part of history.....the people here are also more wary of the implications the systems, irreversible processes (such as offshoring) and rules have on their lives....they are more at ease about the neighbour not being their biggest problem......unlike the dust in Kolkata.....

a speck of dust stuck in the rail lining of the sliding door of an elevator of a 100 storeyed building is scared that it will be uncerimoniously unloaded onto a floor that is not its first choice, where cleaning is regular, people are allergic to dust and will NOT tolerate it.. this speck of dust is so typical of all the people that use this elevator... they are all pawns in this worldly game and they are all the time scared that they are not forced to exit on a floor that is not their best choice. .. be it the Janitor who is thinking of how to get the out of the double mortgage trap that he has because of his son's college dream.. the Sales chap who is shit scared about he not meeting his targets and loosing his commission.. the CFO who is worried of some1 finding out about his latest book dressing!.. the FedEx chap who is thinking of her impending divorce while riding upto the 69th floor..
