A Strange Feeling of sadness !

Yesterday in the early hours, Saddam Hussein was executed in the gallows. He looked composed while the noose was being put on his neck. It really makes me wonder what must be going on in his mind at that point of time. News channels and other media agencies bombarded us with the images of the past glory of Saddam Hussein, and reminded us of the atrocities he committed. I cannot comment whether what happened was necessary to free the world from the tyrants or so called "dictators". I have neither experienced nor undergone the sufferings of the relatives of people who were killed by Saddam's people or under his regime. Hence I cannot rejoice or say whether the death Saddam was killed was well deserved.But yesterday's event led to a strange feeling of sadness within me.
The sad feeling was not because he was hanged to death, but maybe where he ended up in his life. From the images seen, it is evident he did live a grand life. It was almost picture perfect at one point of time. A big family, strong sons, regime of Iraq, support of America, all the life's privileges, all the comforts of world available, it was all too good to be true. But there was one aspect that Saddam in spite of all his strength had no control on. And that was TIME.
TIME was continuously moving on, changing from second to second. It did not see the crimes or atrocities committed. It did not see who came and who went, it did not see whether justice was done or not, but it did its job, it kept moving. And so with time, circumstances changed, the way of living changed and above all mind sets changed.
One lesson I did manage to learn is "Never Underestimate the power TIME holds on your fate". In the time of your supreme strength, one might think he is invincible, but Time brings everyone down to their knees. When you feel you are the most powerful person in the world, be ultra careful. Your doom is near. Time and Fate would change without notice. And the glories of the world would vanish, everyone you thought was with you would flounder and there would be uncertainty all around.
Maybe the absolute submission to the fact that we are nothing in front of strength TIME holds, has led to a strange feeling of sadness within myself. I know no solution but to see that I live my life with a responsible fashion and collective sensitiveness.
