Carrying on from the last blog:
Starting a blog comes with its nuances.When I was asked for a name, I thought like giving some time, n coming out with the best name. But all of a sudden this word “Utopia” came 2 my mind, n i decided on it.
So, what is Utopia? For those who are not well versed with the language,in its most common and general meaning, it refers to an imaginary perfect society, that has not existed (yet), or that can never exist because people are unable to reach perfection or endure tyranny forever. It has also been used to describe actual communities founded in attempts to create such a society.
If people remember, in the movie “Matrix”, Agent Smith says that the first Matrix was a utopia, but humans disbelieved and rejected it because they “define their reality through misery and suffering.” Therefore, the Matrix was redesigned to simulate human civilization with all its suffering. Thus the word goes around, though Matrix has n no. of interpretations.
It is with this thought in mind did I use this name.For people like me, today’s world seems like a misnomer, where every day people r getting sucked in the black hole of selfishness n greed.Relationships are losing its meaning n people r tending towards becoming more mechanical, devoid of any feelings.Morals n ethics hv taken a backseat n oneupmanship has taken centrestage.
Though the situation looks pathetic, but still everthing is not lost ‘coz there r still some people left who have the guts to raise the cudgels and stand up to all this.Through the means of this forum, I wish to bring together such people on a common platform.I wish to form a community of such like minded people who can then share their thots and find a solution to any trivial issue.
Though the idea and the words may sound pretty preposterous, but I think evry idea sound idiotic n kiddish at start.It is when it raises its head that people eat their words 2 praise it.
Long road, big ambitions, but yes a true spirit n heart full of faith.
Amen.

Seth sahab, kya mast likha hain.
Cannot say blogging will be the best place to assemble all person who dream of Utopia, but if at all if people come together and get the things going there can be nothing like that. Why I feel so is, nowadays people have less time for themselves leave aside family society, country. And if has to be a revolution among masses it has to be something very attractive, am not saying it has to be just crowd pulling but it has to have magnetism with such an aura where if a person comes never wishes to leave.
All the best in your endeavor to get all utopia seeking on board soon.
