A feeling of joy, a feeling of satisfaction and its perfection are attributes to itself; one changes the light of day just to know things have worked out the way he/she felt. What makes the difference between good and bad, beautiful and ugly, sexy or not sexy, etc.

You would feel heavy when you look into special somebody’s eyes; god would signal you to their direction, and that’s the moment we would all get to know that they are the right people for us. Interesting, innit? What is it that interests us the most? Is it the feeling of getting into love or getting out of love?

In a city where it’s bustling with people, one finds it hard to find the right person; now could you blame it on the looks of that person and other factors or simply the fate? I believe that the first impression has got nothing to do with the overall image that that person can impose later. All in all, the real question is if we need to be lust driven in our lives for guiding us.

A Feel

How many times in life have we all wanted to be different in almost every little detail? We have always constantly boggled ourselves with the way we look, feel and personify things. None of them being the most important thing to us or the people around us; it doesn’t even help us in choosing the people whom we need to be around with. Then, why is it that, atrocity the center theme of our lives? It is certain that things will be simpler if, we all could come out of our closets and accept the facts in this aspect.

"Some of the things that we have done in the Middle East are contributing to a potential explosion region-wide... We may end up being bogged down for many years to come in a conflict that will be profoundly damaging to our capacity to exercise our power."
Zbigniew Brzezinski, former U.S. national security adviser, in an interview with Charlie Rose.

Interestin innit... how they conclude things!

???

Last evening, I was exposed to a suspicion that things go wrong not only because it was your fault but because it was meant to be. The point to be decided is, when is it best to do what is best for you. Can we all afford to take luxury of laying back and letting destiny take over? It has been quite a juncture that we have to take responsibility in what we do and not blame destiny, not bringing things to materialize.

Care

Being important to somebody is asking too much of that person; it could be a friend, relative or even a foe. What is more important than making it worthwhile every single day by creating your own aura around the people of the world who need you?

The equation boils down to how, and how much of how little! It is a known evil that everybody feels short of every little thing no matter how much greater one’s got. I would say, it could be simpler if we could just set aside like a penny of our time, energy and resources everyday for the others; I am not trying to set an example, I cannot be an Edward Deeming or a Mother Teresa of the modern era, but, all I am telling is that there is too much in this world which need attention and if each one of us try a little hard we could do good not only to ourselves but our future generations.

Think about a world without hunger, diseases, pain, sorrow, poverty, anger, violence, hatred and all other religious enmity. Inshallah! How green and clean the other side of the grass looks… lets try and not complicate ourselves by showering hatred. Lets all stand united for humanity and oneness; because at the end that is all that matters.

Patience

In the past few days, there was a revelation to me which opened my eyes to what silence and patience could offer you without your notice. There are things in life which needs extreme attention and there are others which not necessary but do need a close watch. When should they be attended and for what reasons they need to be attended? One may feel ridiculous at times as to why you need a careful watch over these things, but at the same time they may be of extreme importance to others. Is it going to be a presumptuously large offering from your side to do what is necessary or is it just considered to be but not exactly… it could be either of the two depending on the situation.

Acceptance

Sometimes in life, things work just they have to and not how you need to; I for sure have learned to start accepting and believing what is presented to me which has improved my ideology quite perfectly. Should all of us start doing the same and move on with what they have and not what they aspire? I do not think that it would be hypocritical to start accepting things the way they are but also dream a thing or two about a thing or two.

Sharing love certain times is inevitable and is understandable; however, sharing the same depth of love is incorrigible and not accepted; as they seem to be obnoxious in its own ways.

We all sometimes wonder about how much is too much or how little is too little? It is not necessary for us to know what is real quite a few times and somehow what reality is would not change for that fact. I am not certain where I am leaning towards with this point being made.

Love?

Love, being a complicated term by itself, is a very hard thing to be used. It’s ridiculous to see people love each other so fast and deny that love the next moment. Is it just that you love somebody whom you love only for that particular moment and have no faith in it the next moment? Or is it just that there is an abundance of love found floating in everybody’s shoes which is like a freebee and given to all who passes by.

The true question is…when is it that one loves the other truly? The answer is truly unknown for a long time now. There are umpteen movies having the theme of somebody loving somebody else. Do we really care about who is on screen or do we just pretend that its our life that is being portrayed and just be gallant about it!

The relationships that last for that day have no mere probability that it would last another without any hindrance overcome; this is proved and witnessed by everybody but the fact is nobody wants to talk about it, we all pretend that it never happened. The fact is that it did; if we liked it or not.

Do we all live in such a pretentious world that we don’t really need to care about what we feel and just gel in the moment, not thinking of the future? Why do all of us succumb to mere pleasures than thinking of the future? I feel that all men have rather grown the way they feel like than what they should have actually done. The question of it being just is not important or simply just disregarded. Faith in the modern world has had little or no meaning and for sure has had no impact on the people growing with us.

Probabilities...

What is the most important thing between a man and a woman? Is it that they always need to be in a relationship or could they just be friends? I have come across relationships between friends that have lasted a lifetime and those that have broken up within few days and weeks. I cannot stop but to wonder why one would react to feelings the way that they react; would those reactions change if they were given an option or is that just a probability?

Relations, reality, reactions and being responsible make things harder than they could possibly be when without any constraints are attached. Life becomes so much more easier when there are less things to think about or when there are less people to care about; like when we have 10 friends unlike 1000 on our phone books. The truth is, no matter how many friends you make, you only care about the people you care about and somehow that number seems to be stagnant over the years.

There are so many people living in and around Chicago but when I think about how many I am actually in touch or want to be in touch it reduces to an incredibly small amounts. I cannot stop but wonder why I have to be the way I am now. Why do we men treat women differently than other men who are our friends? Why is there a distinction or a terrible thing like caste shown awkwardly, like nobody watches you around? I leave you with that thought for now…

Question

The day is bright and the nights are cold; why should anybody be mortified of accepting this? It feels like a myth sometimes about how the age of loneliness can take over a man. I have read about a thing or two about a thing or two but never have I come across how vivid a brain can be.

How certain am I about my decisions? A naive question my girl asked me the other day; perplexed I was to answer it mainly because I felt I was not being clear enough. The “question” should have been presented to me way back in life; maybe I could have done things differently.

I wander in thoughts and reach a point where there is no certainty for ending. Reasons for deceiving a person could hardly be an explanation for its treason. Why would one want to conquer reality? Is this the most difficult question presented to anybody at anytime?

All men, sometimes women; not that I am unaware of what the women quench, but them being a complex dimension is quite ambiguous to understand; we need to give up on things we have never done before, that could be interesting for boasting. But why would one want to do it? Has everything in life got to be hard to decide? The answer is simple. Do as your heart says!
