One of the finest invention of mankind has been the invention of cloth. This has been very close to me for all good reasons and in fact now it's all around me and is still increasing exponentially.
The process from a single yarn(thread) to a full fledge cloth is similar to the journey of life. With all the troubles and survival to conquering the world we emerge as winners.
Being involved in this field personally and professionally I can conclude one thing that you need to have patience, obsession and emotion all attached to one.
Just like a yarn which is first extracted from the cotton crop and is sent for refining, finishing and finally gets developed with a great strength and holding capacity which was lacking in the raw one. We humans too are pampered, nurtured and treated with tenderness of love and gradually as we become competitive, we are left in the world to go and own it all.
Going down the lane for say five years I was pursuing engineering in computers and was surviving it each day with a hope that once I am done with it, then would rise the sun with full of it's shine.
This can be very well compared to the cloth that we develop. For the initial stage we aren't sure what it's gonna be, but we dedicate ourselves to it and perform without expectations. One good thing that always happens is we are satisfied with our final product. That's where the purity lies.
That being said, another thing pops up in my mind is when we are in the process of developing the gray fabric we come across various problems and hindrance which resists quality development. Similarly in life nothing is easily possessible. You need to work on it, sort out things that are distracting you from your path and make sure you're directed forward.
While in life we meet different kinds of people possessing different qualities with their unique way to adapt things. Compatibility with and amongst them is an admiring sight. I would pay way more than I usually do, to watch a rapport between Nigerian kid consoling his Brazilian neighbor to allow the Chinese bub to play the game of football with the opponents being British and Indian spectators cheering out loud along with the Germans by their side in the stand.
Much resembling it is here in textiles also, we have different types of Dobbies that develop varied quality of cloths. We have Jacquard dobby, 24 lever dobby, 16 lever dobby and many others. Combination of these dobbies would result in miracles and would generate some amazing clothing material. This is much more relative to the earlier point I mentioned about that game of football.
There are still numerous comparisons which are life like and will eventually groom and reach to a point of benediction.
Lastly as the quoting tradition goes,
"With every WARP there need to be an appropriate WEFT which will add the authenticity to isolated yarns which is the same with humans as they need a suitable companion which will add value to their endurance."
