A day at the Imperial War Museum

A day at the Imperial War Museum
LONDON: Sitting outside, in a summer afternoon, on a bench, at the local park. With a cup of tea on one hand and a sandwich on the other, I see a middle age couple enjoying their time. She reads further more, about the house they have just visited, while he sits there, enjoying blitz of sun and a fresh breeze blowing at his face. After some time they stand up and leave. Leaving behind nothing more than empty seats.
On the same afternoon a friend asked me, «why did the second war happen, after the first? Wasn’t the first enough!?»
- The first was for political reasons; the second was for economical reasons. Although, both fall within the same category, they're two completely different events resulting from two distinctive lines of thought – said I.
- I want to see the Falklands War – they said, and then they leave.
Overwhelming! Is how much of the times life is. It takes us to planes and places, which we would never expect to be taken.

Honestly, this is the kind of dumb comment people make after drinking a few bottles of wine! - Why can we all just get along?
