Freedom: one form for another. ;)

Have you ever wondered which is the sweetest and most promising word you have ever come across.? from those 26 alphabets, three of them were lucky to be a part of the word of my dreams. :) That magical word is none other than- "Free"... its simply a state when we are given the maximum number of options in anything we do. May it be choices we have for the places we wanna go... or a choice to get ur child the most expensive dress in town... or being able to do what ever we want to do at any point of time.

"free"...The state ideally to be attained fully... the state which I would ever live and even die for... the core factor of people's lives.. no matter what ever fortunes are left for us or how ever free we are physically, i think Freedom is not attained without having it in the full shape. What i mean is, if we have the liberty to move around anywhere in the world, its too little to be accumulated as the complete freedom. I think there are so many forms of freedom which are collectively called "Complete freedom"

what im gonna discuss is just too familiar. but these things are not always measured in terms of freedom. And as materialistic and money minded the world has become, First thing to be told is abt money... the word "freedom" is always hidden in this process of churning money using millions of methods... may it be legal or illegal.

But... people always mistook the need of making money which they think is for gaining power. How i wish they will understand one day... money is not for power but simply for gaining a form of FREEDOM. freedom to live without anyone's control over our own needs and sometimes, "wants". freedom to live our own life filled with choices. This is also called financial freedom, often named as power, which is very wrong. I think its the freedom and the ability to solve monetary problems by ourselves, standing on our own legs.

If you have noticed, people often sacrifice one kind of freedom for another. At times, being unfair to their own lives when seen through other's eyes. This is in reverence to the fact that, sadly we cant attain a complete "free" life as long as heaven is not brought down onto this earth. For example, A person going to jail aft committing a crime for making money... is a clear case of sacrificing one's physical freedom (to move around freely) for financial freedom. Or to love someone and sacrifice ur love for Her/Her for not to be distracted in our career/studies etc, can be perceived as a sacrifice of freedom to love for the same financial freedom.

"Prioritize" is the word here. We are supposed to prioritize the different instances of freedom we have in our life, and decide which one to lose for which one. Or is it better to have a little bit of everything.... choice is yours. either way, only one thing is there to be taken care of. Picturize where you will be after a certain period of time, and try to see if you will have regrets for the choice you made.

Never think that you are free when you attain a mere form of freedom. But do feel successful when you have the attained that instance of freedom which you have prioritized in your life as the top one. To be free, i think we have to work to attain that particular form of the freedom first.. and not for absolute freedom in everything (which is Utopian idea), coz the angel of liberty has too many faces to count.

That was too much for a single word- free. but those four letters mean a lot to me :)

God bless.

Melancholy *its all about balance* :)

In the light of that dusky moment when i left behind some real memories in a place where i probably wouldn't go back again in my life... i was stricken by that cruel element i hate.! that very element everyone hates- Sadness. sadness... we would never know when it is gonna start or when its gonna bother us. Before cursing it, i started thinking why this happens in life. why these unpleasant moments... well my inner self answered my question somewhat like this.

All of us know one thing- If there is happiness there is sadness too. but some of us just ignore the fact that, happiness exists only if sadness or melancholy has its existence. If not for sadness, people just wouldn't know when happiness hits them. well... needless to say... happiness is simply the opposite word for sadness. so there is a balance formed here. just like we have Oxygen n carbon dioxide in the atmosphere we live in, I believe, a person should experience sadness to experience happiness in it's full flavor. flavors can be tasted and categorized only if each one has its bitter counterpart.. i believe so.

This can be approached the other way round.! we can even say a human being can only experience melancholy if he had experienced happiness. but this fact is so evident in our lives coz, we really cant forget those moments when our happiness comes to a sad end which we never expected to happen.! whenever a dream is broken, whenever a good thing comes to an end etc. this very fact, we discuss among ourselves too. But what bout the other side?

During grief, we always expect happiness to take over.! at the same time, when we are happy we never hope or expect for sadness to come in. BUT there is always a balance between these two states in our lives. we would never even dare to expect sadness. we cant ever do that... it wont ever look good when we expect some bad news when we are at somebody's wedding. we are humans... so, some of the things, nature has its own triggers... those virtual triggers which can be only touched by God's Good Hands.

well, i didn't mean to say, there will be a opposite state to whatever happy state we are in... just wanted to say that, there are no hidden laws in nature. its just opened up in front of us... and i think one of them is the thing i just discussed about... the perfect balance between Bliss and Sadness, though we work HARD for the former and work even harder to avoid the latter.! :)

So, do Cry when grief strikes... dun pretend ur happy.
Keep smiling when u are blissful :) you never know when its gonna be timed out and grief strikes you.

okay... enuf of this topic.. i have wrote a bit too long, but couldn't help it... signing off for nw... Take carez

God bless

Locking eyes with you

I always feel that there is a silent converstation between two people who have ever looked at each other's eyes. may it be on the road side, in the workplace or in the bus stop. there is always this silent business going on between people. And, i think there is a deeper meaning in this when its the opposite sex. This conversation, only God will know who starts it and who ends it. strange isnt it.!

The word "different" has its meaning right up to the brim for this topic i just thought bout. it has no connection with any one living or dead. :D
two different worldly beings- Male n Female. as you all know, its not only those two heavy letters "F" n "E" that makes the difference.

Female n Male. two distinct formulaic conceptions... completely different worlds like two planets. (or a planet and its satellite :D when the inner/outer beauty is really admired or appreciated), like two kinds of chemicals... which has completely different reactions to the mildest treatment.

people talking bout diverse nature of a region with all the kinds of ppl living in harmony, are so unaware of the harmony in diversity exhibited when these two types of humans live together- Males n Females.

Well, giving it a deeper thought bout how these two types of creations live n let live the other, given that they will have love for each other and at the same time, bitterness over some things. one of the reasons may be the hormonal attraction both have towards each other. Mebbe because of the silent conversations going on each moment when they are together. the thoughts and things they share. willingness to adjust etc.

thoughts are jus overflowing in my mind. and i fear they may cross the limit.

lastly.. these are all jus mere.. random thoughts which i stumble upon when i just happen to use my brain to think.! on this note, me back to dreamworld :) laterz then :)


God Bless.
