I stare at the blank page wondering what to write.
Life decides its own course. It is so spontaneous. You never know how just a turn around the corner may change your life for ever. You do not decide who your parents will be, in which family you will be born. You are given a set of circumstances and people, you have to make the best out of it. So how do we say, we have control over our life. Does one ever have?
The only thing you have control over is in choosing your friends. But that is also limited control, I would say. You select a subset from a bigger group of people which is decided by where you grow up, where you study, where you work and whom you randomly chance to meet. So, you can keep a goal in your mind and work towards a general direction but the outcome cannot be fully in your hands. It’s a dynamic interaction of so many things.
As we progress in life, one of the most important thing is learning to 'letting go'. If some work has gone bad or some relationship has gone bad, one should not keep on lingering to that. In practice it is much more difficult as lot of sweat and effort would have gone into making it. But if you do not 'let go', it would act as a hindrance to your further progress.
In everyone’s life comes a time when he or she feels life has become stagnant. There is no further advancement. You have got stuck with the same job over a long period of time or a person for a longer period of time. Life needs change. Without change there is no excitement, there is no learning. But one should not force a change upon himself or herself. You need to be ready to embrace the change and try to find happiness in small things of life. The world has so much misery and pain that once you start looking you would realize that your daily life problems are not even worth mentioning.
If a conscious effort is taken, can one not alleviate his problems? Can not small differences be mended mutually? Ya, I agree not all problems can be solved this way. There are many problems with no solutions and differences irreconcilable. But that would hardly be a small fragment. Isn't it?
There are close to seven billion Homo-Sapiens on this planet. You know more than this number of bacteria would come in a small flask and there are more stars/planets greater than the size of earth than seven billion. So are we really that much? By some standards, humans must be a primitive life form in one corner of the universe in an obscure galaxy known as Milky Way. So if a strategy for the evolvement of universe is being considered, would we be even taken into account? Huh? What rubbish?
I wonder how everything came into being. How all laws of physics were developed? How first life was formed and what happens to it after it has died. No one has ever been able to and I don't know how further it will go this way. But if we come to know, won't we supersede ourselves?
Everything is an illusion. I wonder who designed us.
God Maybe
