I have always believed that what's yours cannot be taken from you. It always finds a way to come back to you. At the same time you cannot take into possession what's not yours. It will not remain yours, even if you were to safeguard it with your life. Now now, a very simple principle, ain't it? Then why is it so hard for a certain numb skulls to understand it? Oops, I answered my question! If you are numb, you ain't feeling anything right?
This post might as well be a fruit of frustration! But lemme try to objectify it as much as possible.
Long back a friend had told me something, that continues to haunt me till date - Expectation is a mother of all fuck-ups! You know what? It sure as hell is! Lets rationalize it. Why do we expect? Is it coz we think we deserve things? Or is it coz the person next door has it and we don't? The sources are disparate but the destination is the same.
People say, have realistic expectations. Now can these people please rise up to the occasion and tell me what exactly is a "realistic" expectation? Is it certain "cult" of expectations that are limited to your bounded brains? Something you perceive is achievable to you and hence generalize it coz you think you are the end of the world? So if my logic is correct, anything I think I deserve or can achieve that's beyond your limited and chained thought process is gonna be condemned! Once again, I am not even gonna delve on the realms of who gave you the right to write my life story!
Time and time again, I have been shaken up by my reliable sources asking me to come out of my "ideal" world. Well, if a world were honesty and truthfulness precedes manipulation is called ideal, then so be it! I dance to the music of my song. That's the only dance I know. If you wanna change the music to suit your ear drums, be assured I am gonna step on your toe. You could then go and cry to your mama!
I am not complaining that the world is claustrophobic. I am just saying that world can be such a better place to be where every breath one takes need not weaken one's spine! Looking around, I know its a tough job for me to survive being me. Can I emerge victorious? If I were to change even a single set of thoughts, it would be a small victory. Nopes, I don't wanna preach. Why would I? I am just a restless soul in mid 20's. How much of world have I seen? I have lived a principled life, guarding my values for they are what make me. You all are intelligent enough to recognize that success does not succeed values!
So why am I writing this post? I write this post to address people - believers. In the end, the good shall prevail. Sounds cliched right? Well, most of us haven't lived a full life. Meet me at the end of yours and we can discuss this then! For all you simple honest buggers wanting to live your live your way, there's still hope. Hope, that arises from each of your hearts. Please don't buckle under "peer pressure". You are answerable only to the person you see in the mirror. Dance to your music. Dance like no one is watching. Don't forget to give a "gentle" hook to anyone who tries to re-tune you. All the best warriors! See you on the other side!
