And somewhere between all of it we hang in the void.
Once you look around you notice you are not the only one. The void ironically is teeming with people. Each one of them unique and yet so similar.
I then wonder if I am any different from anyone I lay my eyes on. The story of their life is same, the same …THE SAME.
Society holds all of us to ransom, subtly and at times starkly laying its rules on us.
You can’t break away from it, no matter what you do, no matter who you are…no matter what you believe. Even if you think you do, one day you will realize that all that you have done is changed the rules and conventions you were earlier adhering to. The sooner one comes to terms with it the easier it is to understand oneself. One can never appease the society, there will always be something amiss……there will always be something more they desired out of you.
Well at times for the ubiquitous society’s acceptance we got to change.
Change till it does not become your sole purpose of life. Change for the excitement , change for the challenge…..change to give a befitting reply to the so called society which doesn’t think you are good enough or that you cant do it. Change to see the look on people’s face when you have proved them wrong, change to see how people switch sides the moment you are some one who is at a higher pedestal according to them. Enjoy it but don’t believe in it.
……and yes there will always be comments, frowns, criticisms…part and parcel.
One can’t let the social order affect what we like, dislike or who we like, dislike. One can’t let the social order affect who we are.
Listen to those whom you are close to…for the rest hearing will do.
Yes there will always be exceptions to society. Brilliant! If you find them and for the rest I guess WHO CARES??
