Just A Water Well

The ruthless savages of mutant terrorism continue to tear apart some societies; the unthinkable cruelties of evil in humanism perpetuate sufferance among children and women; the unselective warfares for civil rights relentlessly terrorise every innocent hope and life; and the mounting calamitous furies of nature's order stake unforgivingly tens of thousands more in casualties and mishaps; how many of the rest of us can and could mindfully live in true peace?

In a Madagascar village in Africa, elderly and young women beaming smiles as they gathered  around a newly built water well; attesting an ancient conception still renders a luxury that could draw a new lease of life for these villagers whose lives are no less precious; barking at an urbanite the slightest whimper of petty complaints of compromised affluence. Statistics in 2012 shows 90% of the 22 million population still live on less than USD2/- a day.
Such is one mean knowledge that rattles the timidity and vulnerability in the author, the side of reality he lives in, a side he deems extravaganza.
