Series of incidents from few months have inspired me to pen down my thoughts. The haunting thought of people and their moral values frighten me. A young charming boy agrees for arrange marriage to soothe his parents, want to palliate his pre-marital gal frnd by fighting with his wife and alleviate himself from all responsibilities by suicide. The wife also follows the same step to assuage her pain. This is not a hypothetical story but an incident which came to me like a thunder bolt. Similarly there are plenty of incidents where people find it hard to decouple themselves from their past and their acts.
Looking from the eye of an entrepreneur I see a business opportunity here. What about love insurance? Like we have kidnap and ransom insurance in countries like Mexico , Venezuela and Nigeria where such crime are common someone can think abt luv insurance in India. I have chosen India because ours is the only country where you can bet on these values. The family system is so strong in our country that it has surpassed many recessions and depressions in which the richest economies like America and Britain collapsed. I am also hurt by the current trend which is precursor of deterioration of such values. I could see that 10 years from now people will start insuring their engagements and marriage. The company has to pay the victim insured amount for their break ups. The premium would be decided on the basis of risk involved so it is obvious that engagement would be having more premium than marriage. Premium will reduce to almost half amount once you are married and will again decrease further once you are blessed with a child. No premium has to be paid after age of 50 but you would continue to be insured under it.
Huh.. I am really disappointing while writing this. Who could think of that there would be price tag of your tears and emotions? Is I am seeing apocalypse in near future? This is very hard to describe. It is ‘I’ which is creating problem. It is ‘me’ which is causing turbulence, it is ‘mine’ which is reason for all agony. Nobody cares about ‘they’ ‘them’ or ‘theirs’.
