Belief System

 
The human race exists and prevails on belief system. Moreover, the validation that we need to tell ourselves that we are correct and in turn prove to others we are a step ahead than others.

If there is no belief system, no validation, would we even exist?
We are often asked to keep our feelings to ourselves. Keep going and move on with a normal trance and a smile, not to disrupt the existing situation. Not to over react, have patience, and you will bear fruits. 

This is almost everyone's story. 

While most of us wage a war within, while appearing normal from outside while there is a huge noise going in ourselves.

We fight everyday, trying to silence the voice, trying to make sense out of it, figure things out, rationalize it but in vain.
Then, there comes a day when everything goes silent. The noise seems like a whisper. We go deaf, not wanting to hear it anymore. The outward lie becomes the truth and the inward one becomes the truth.
The situation that is expected to be compromised out of force becomes an adjustment out of choice.

Everything seems to be crystal clear. The illusions vanish. The water seems crystal clear. The falsification of life gets torn apart. Everything around us seems to be just fine.

Maybe, everyone is living almost a near-similar life which is termed normal-living. 
Again, the belief system wins, putting the actual you to rest. Once again creating the transparent space of illusion as if to say, “ this is it".

I am You AND You are Me!

Have you ever thought about comparison? Something that is so easy to do but is highly complex in its form? As a Child and a growing adult, I detested being compared with anyone. I did not understand the reason.  I kept thinking, how can one be compared with another? It is often executed as if it does not matter and is done as a matter of fact! I never understood why it is even done... One thing I knew was how it made me feel. What implications it can have. Comparison is a mighty Tool. It often breaks one but at times builds the Craziest ones. The ones it builds end up repeating the "Compare cycle game" Comparison is not saying, you are not doing or studying or performing like the other person but it is also trying and striving to be like a "PARTICULAR PERSON"  Why do you want to be someone else? Be a Photocopy? Why not be YOU? I was often asked, "Who is your Idol? Whom do You follow?" My all-time answer would be "NONE". I say that because there i...

The inner conflict

TO BE OR NOT TO BE- is phrased by Shakespeare in one of his plays-Hamlet. The everyday line for day to day life series is TO DO OR NOT TO DO.   The duality of the mind, the flip-flops of thoughts, the space between the doing and the undoing seems to have captured the souls of every individual. We are usually caught up in-between actions, words, gestures either with oneself or another. Human beings are social animals but are still animals in our own ways.   We love to please all and want to be in good books of all expect one IMPORTANT PERSON- Own self. This is the first step of conflict. A conflict with oneself. The conflict of the outward self with the inward self.   It is a pull and push mechanism. The inner self wants to push the outward self in loving oneself and the outward self is pulling away from listening to it. We resent ourselves from listening to our inner self. We fail to act its way. The reason could be, because we know it does not manipulate or ...

The Awakening Call..

It took in a lot of effort to write this article. Not because it was difficult to write but did not know from where to start. There were so many unanswered questions that were going on in my mind. Dignity, self-respect, confidence, hope and a zeal to live life against all odds is what adds value to mankind and makes life worth living. At some point of time, all these value-adds are at stake. It makes things more difficult when it is hurt and dealt at random with no fault of the person, but is hurt due to certain horrendous acts. One of such is hurt and insulted in the recent days that made headlines which shook the entire nation. This, in turn, started getting diluted politicized on a large scale and on a personal note—became the fight of the sexes  Why do we always wait for such a terrible thing to happen which becomes an awakening call? Makes one realize that the society that we live in is so 2 sided that it can take it and live with it if it goes unnoticed and su...
