The Divine becomes The Devil

The one, who always admired the Power, no wonder will always be a devotee towards it's source. And may be that explains the reason why such a person would always been found as an admirer of women. The power that female holds not just in their beauty, which can never be matched by anything that the nature presented on this earth till date, but in their heart as well. The moments which many other would want to run away from, she choose to go on with it, fight with it and make the effort of turning the world upside down to survive it that too while keeping those around her happy. Holding all of it on her own, without even letting them know about the fights she had and many more that she is having at present while she is being cheesy and clingy, even acting childish at times just to tickle others with a smile. And so the admiration continues to grow. What happens next, when an admirer get too close to something that's powerful beyond his imagination for him to just be an admirer of...

The Freedom

So, as I was just scrolling through my Insta feed (follow me there :p). I read so many suggested Id's bio (it's there to be read, right ?) and I find out that there was something common in almost all of them.

                    Some wrote "I live the way I want" one other wrote "living dreams" one's bio went like "Strong and Independent" and this one is my favorite it went like, "Someone who dreams a lot and work hard to chase them. A flying bird." And she was not only the one that mentioned this flying thing. There were others who wrote like "free bird", "fly high" and all these kind of things. Now, you may ask, but Ishan, what's the relation between these insta bios and today's topic, The Freedom.

                     Well, there is definitely a relation between the two but before we go into that, let me tell you that this article is going to be a little different than others. Unlike other articles, this time I'll leave you with a question rather than a conclusion. And it's on you to answer in the comments.

                    Alright, now let's talk about those bio. See, when you read them, the sense that they all are giving is about being free, living on their own terms, doing what they love, or working on achieving something that they once wanted to do.

                     At the same time, when you listen the word "Sky". The image that pops up in your head is of a vast sky-blue color area filled with little white clouds in it, right ? And if you just look closely and pay attention to the detail, you might also see a few birds flying here and there. And how does a bird fly, freely, right ? A bird travels from one place to other without any boundation or restriction. And what's the word to define this action of a bird, freedom right ?

                     All of it implies that freedom is something that's very common and everyone wants to have. Something that we all chase or thrive for. And this brings me to the question, "What is freedom and how can we achieve it ?"

                     Does just following our dreams is freedom or doing what we love is freedom ? If  you get the Job that you always wanted or made a great company that you dreamt of as a teenager, which is earning more than expected, is freedom ? Does just being financially independent make you free ? Just because you did something that you wanted, irrespective of what your parents, relatives and this society told you, is that freedom ? Are all these things, be it financially independent or doing what you love, chasing your dreams all of it. Do they give you freedom or they just bound you in an even smaller boundary than the one that you used to have ?  Because, this is something that you chose and so you might not fail in it but now you are just bound to this one thing that you chose, aren't you ?

                     And now if I bring your attention back to second question i.e. "How can we achieve freedom ?" Can your emotions, feeling and thoughts also be completely free and independent. Because you are what you think you are, right ? And if not a big incident, your thoughts, feeling and emotions can easily be altered or influenced even just by simple words. Can you be really free without being free from your thoughts and emotions ? Moreover, the things that you have learned when you were a child, your beliefs, which are not even yours originally. You have those beliefs because of the society you live in, because that's what your family believed to be true and right, because of the people you met and the experiences you had. Can you be free from all of it ? And at last, the actions that you repeated enough that now they are your habbits, the fears, the insecurities can you be free from all of these things ever ??

                    "Can a person ever be so free that their own beliefs, their own thoughts stop stopping them. Or may be we just like the word freedom so much that we use it everywhere as it give a sense of change and betterment but in reality we all are just scared of being free and that's why we always try to stick to something. Be it a career, a hobby, a person, a fear, an action, the words, our behavior and so on."

                       Leaving it right here. Think about it. Discuss it with someone you feel will be interested in this topic. And let me know in the comments what you think. Thanks for investing so much time in my work. Really appreciate it. Take it lite and have a good one. :)

Can Happiness be Accessed Anytime ?

Everyday we go through a lot and maintaining just one emotion/ feeling throughout the day seems impossible. Specially, when it comes to happiness in the current time. When everyone is so busy in so many things other than self improvement or just enjoying the present movement. Our lifestyle, living standard and what not is so much changed that we all created a virtual world around us in which we are the King/Queen . We are so no tolerant to any interfere whatsoever.                                   Instead of sorting things out, talking it through, we choose to simply push them away. We separate us from them, label them toxic and that's it. We create a wall around us thinking that if we will stay away we'll be happy . But unfortunately, it never happens because even when you separate them, create a wall, they are still i...

One who Cry, can be the Strongest

I am not a big fan of bollywood movies but still some movies are so emotional that I cried when I watched them, but my friends always say why are you crying, what happened to you and I never had an answer. I didn't know why I cry whenever I see some emotional movie or listen any sad song. People say its because something similar to this movie had happened in your life that's why you were crying, but according to my memory nothing bad happened in my life and still I cry on every emotional sad song. Photo by Gabriel on Unsplash                   The song that always make my eyes wet is "Agar Tum Sath Ho" from movie named "Tamasha" and the best movie is "Sanam Teri Kasam" which made me cry for approx one hour and I didn't know the reason, I was just crying.           Finally, as now I knew the reason, I would like to share it to all those e...

It Starts with You (Why we care more about others than for ourself)

Do you remember the time when you did something for someone out of your generosity or may be because you like that person or may be it's something that you like to do for others. So much so,t you did it for them without them even realizing that they needed it but when they received it, they eventually loved it.                         Now, it could be anything, from food that you gave to the labors to that cute pencil boxes that you gave in the orphanage. From the moral support to your family to your kind words that your friend needed when going through a rough time. Your advice, emotional support or ear that you lend to your friend, your care or most importantly your time, your presence that lighten up someone's mood, that made them release even just a little bit of stress and relax. Any of these that you did for someone, do you remember how does that make you feel ? Good,...

You Shouldn't Text them...

So, the monsoon is already here and the winter is just the next door. And if you don't already know, what comes with these two is something which we all experience once in our life. Sometimes, even more but that's not the point. The point is how you deal with it or should I say how you embrace "this". Now, if you're a true indian and you love food, "this", that I'm talking about is not the "Garma Garam Chai and Pakode" which definitely come with the monsoon. So, what is "This"?                           A feeling, an emotion that you have for someone. And no, its not Love that I'm talking about or to be precise the bollywood kind of love. Its about missing someone. Someone who was once very close to your heart or may be who still is. Someone with whom you had a great connection with. Now, it could be Friend, a colleague or may be someone more than a friend. What...

Can Love be Forever ??

In a time when everyone is at the verge of their patience, calmness and mental peace, we all sometimes wonder, "Is loving someone truly and whole heartedly worth it anymore ? " In such a fast pacing society will we ever find someone who give us the time we need, the patience we require and the understanding that we both develop towards each other's thoughts, beliefs and behaviors. More importantly, even if by God's grace and the good deeds in all our past lifes, we find that special, our "One and Only", will it stay forever ?? Will the love between us always be there or will it slowly lead toward lies, promises, irritation, resentment, conforming and after a LOT of sacrifices, finally emptiness and then finding reasons to stay happy in such conditions while being together. Well, a short and simple answer will be, No. Love will not, can not and will never stay forever. However, you might always stay with them, live with them and even get a few moments here an...

If You could Time-Travel, where would you go ?? (Children's Perspective)

Children, as amazing as they are, their actions, beliefs, thoughts and imagination everything about them can sometimes leave us adults in shock. Their simplicity, innocence and the actions that mostly led by their heart and not mind, can make us feel so much stupid and sometimes just way too disconnected from the reality. Even though we hear it all the time that we should live in present and all but life is not a theory subject and what goes in practical can be unpredictable. So let's take it from the pros, from those who are still pure to the core and actually know how to do just the same effortlessly. Thus, here are the answers of Grade 1 students with their teacher's remarks on it, when he asked them,  "If you could time travel, where would you go ?"     Alice - 'To after school'   Straight off to a belter here. She could go anywhere. I mean literally wherever, whenever. But Alice has decided to use this omnipotence to move 47 minutes into the future. I t...
