Excerpt: Complexity of being Simple (Danish Rahi)

From the Book: The Pakish Identity: Re-imagining Pakistan through Intelligent Design

I predict that achieving simplicity will continue to become more complex as the definition of being special, unique and talented will continue to change and the flattening of the world will continue further. There will be so many overrated heroes that they, all together, will form layers upon layers of mediocrity. The level of noise will increase visually as more and more brands will find innovative ways to shout louder in order to reach their target audiences. At the same time, the average consciousness level of people will increase due to mass media, information resources and storms of virtual networking and relationships. Pakistan, along with the entire developing world, must realize that the massive change is already here. No entity on earth will be able to stop it. From the tribal to the capital the change will take its course as it has from the beginning of time, sometimes with a gap of several thousand years. There will be failed attempts by the unconscious or the sleeping ones to hinder evolution. The conscious ones who will be able to understand neo-consciousism, will embrace evolution and will enjoy successes in influencing its pace and its direction.
