We have to go to the bank at 10:00 AM. Do it fast. There will be a long line of customers. Swastik said to Aakash. Akash agreed and prepared all the required documents for opening a savings account.

Swastik was a student of Bachelor and Aakash of Master.

Swastik started the bike and now both are in traffic. Traffic word seems like a rush of vehicles in our minds. But it is not like this. We think what we feel. That's why in India traffic means a rush of vehicles, moving on the road here and there.

Reaching the bank was not an easy task for them. They witnessed a challenge to cover the 1 km distance to the bank.

Rickshaw drivers, bikes, cars, and drivers all want to reach their respective destinations first than others. Too much jam cum driving.

Finally, they reached their destination, a bank.

Swastik was in the queue of 25 people. Waiting for his chance to get treated. No worry, a problem arose when the banker denied that you have no proper document, first bring an anonymous piece of paper then we will try to handle your request.

Both saddened after listening this. It was a terrible experience to start from home and reach this bank after experiencing a hill of the rush.

But what can they do? The banker said so they had to repeat the process.

Again, they brought all the required documents then it took around 3 hours to get a bank account open.

3 hours, not a short duration! Tired of this system. Swastik said to his brother-Aakash.

Then Swastik moved in his deep thought that what is wrong with us. There is too much struggle for very little-little things whether you are going to job as a banker as they suffer a load of work that sometimes become dangerous to their life or you are going to open an account in a bank, traveling in public transport then rush of people, or if you are using private transport then bothered about that someone has filled your tank properly or not at the petrol pump. So many questions and questions but not answer.

Then asked a question to himself – Why we are struggling?

It may be mismanagement, irresponsibility, but wait no one wants to take bad wishes from anyone. Then why we are struggling, then his mind came to the point where he saw a pool of people having the same goal.

The same goal requires the same resources, same resources mean extra exploitation of resources, extra exploitation means an imbalance in nature, imbalance in nature means people facing unprecedented things, unprecedented things mean feeling more insecure, feeling more insecure means we have to be safer.

And how we could be safe, by earning money, and spending on our security whether of food, cloth, shelter, transportation, medical, entertainment and so on and, on and on.

Uhhh, the complexity of living. But why, and got the answer a HUGE POPULATION. This huge population made our life as busy that we are not living life, we are only suffering life. That's why we are struggling. No population control made us live as machines rather than as humans.
