If life is so wise!
Why couldn't it teach yet
Or if being so dumb
It awaits for me since forever
To grow up more
Crests and troughs
Uncounted yet insurmountable
Still busy in learning this balancing act
Once a seeker
Is always seeker
Wandering if I could change its course
Yet quite comfortable
Being a wandering soul!!

Who is wise!!

Emptying
Roaming around to get somewhere
While the destination is still unaware
For now halted the search to Unknown
Ceasing the trials
In a bid to influence the affirmations
Emptying the mind from everything known

Hope
In the boulevard of lost souls
Nobody sees nothing but self
Feeling lonely among alikes
Adding despair to their plight
Lost souls in same space
But Never seeing beyond their despair cage
If they could join hands in this journey
I wonder!
Wouldn't it light up some hope
Over their agony!!

Reverting Back
In the search of right path
I stopped listening to my heart
And no wonder!
I felt falling into an endless tunnel
No light in sight
Only dark to fight
Loosing myself in this whirlwind
Frustrated with puzzling grind
Who am I?
Without my heart to comply
Everything drives me mad
What to do ,what not to do?
Neither any thought, nor any wisdom
Could satisfactorily reply.
To Turn down my heart's calling
For some high rated wisdom
And popular following
It's not my way
I tried and tested
Felt delusional and chaotic
So i reverted
To the old times i surrendered
Being myself
Is
Being in sync with my heart
The way it beats
To things it care
To whom it played always a host
And Ignoring every other noise
Has been proved wise
I think that's how I can find my way
Pleasant or painful,
Doesn't matter what it renders
To feel being with myself
The thing that matter the most
It must be For
or
From subject
To which my heart is home.

Insanity
In the war of weapons
To compete the world's impression
Spending millions
For fiery collection
Piling up
The Storehouses of destruction.
When it comes to the justice!
Is it being served for all of the human efforts
Being put for centuries for its upliftment
And here spending chunk of dollars
To destroy and destruct the holders
Jeopardizing it's own existence

Dissonance : Good or bad
How many times people feel that their actions represent their thoughts!! I hope if everyone thinks sincerely they will get alarming lower numbers, especially for things which are not usual occurances.
But that’s not food for thought to your mind here, which i want everyone to explore within themselves.
The main point is whenever such dissonance happens, how much tension it creates inside them. Is it Negligible😊 or Manageable 👍🏻 or Alarming which we continue suppress to our unconscious so that it won’t bother us!! 🥵🤫😔
There has been lot of studies on dissonance and the ways people take up to get rid of it.
1)Some people will simply change their attitude towards that thing so that it no more feel against their thoughts,
2) Some might endure trivilisation so that importance of it becomes minimum and thus it’s presence doesn’t bother much and,
3) Some or very few will change their actions to meet their thoughts.
Now one point to be noted here is , whatever we do we want to get rid of this tension due to disparity between our thoughts and actions. And making it more humane, isn’t it a direct attack on our thoughts, attitudes which is demanding a change???
I think absolutely, but it doesn’t mean that changing your behaviour or actions as per your attitude or thoughts is correct option always. So all 3 methods have their own applications in their right context.
1) Sometimes we need to change our thoughts or attitudes . For example people who believe in so much of superstitious or baseless traditions or life style process,, need to opt for a change in their attitude.
2) Sometimes when we need to quit some bad habits we need to change our actions.
3) And we need to go for trivialisation for matters which are just a common day to day hassle.
So is Dissonance good or bad? I think it’s good to have dissonance as it indicates some change is required for normalisation with present scenarios. But taking action to remove it is more important, as if we suppress it then it will loose its very purpose or meaning. And we, from inside will either become inhuman or will get filled with lot of anxiety issues or depression.
What you people think about it?

Excitement: should it be wanted? or let it happen whenever!
Diving from the edge of a cliff
Suddenly whole adrenaline lost
My muscles got stiff
Inspired to scale the zenith of aspirations
Filled with zeal and motivation
Awaiting to feel that euraka moment
It just happened and it's over
The very next moment
Seems pretty slower
Now to make that adrenaline
Rush through me Again
Do i need to repeat it again and again
Is it linear or cyclic chain
Where every end has to been started again
Or I am just addicted
For that exciting frame
Where I loose myself
In this adrenaline rain

Introspection – The powerful Habit
Introspection: I call it powerful not only because of its offerings of knowledge about self, but it takes real strength and wisdom to introspect oneself. Most of us are indulged in understanding world , knowing people and then making own perceptions about world and people. But important point to understand here is, what is the basis of that perception we are making up, on what parameters we say something as right or wrong, ugly or beautiful!!! That’s the real question! The answer of which, we should be looking for. What if our own perceptions have unthoughtful basis which we have just adopted as they are generally practiced,, what if we have never tried to even know what we really think about our practiced ways!
Just think!!! Isn’t it a sign of weakness where we don’t try to understand ourselves? OR if we know that our thinking is little different from usual practices , so we chose to ignore it to avoid any criticism for us, OR if we know we are doing something wrong but as nobody noticed it or its not considered wrong usually so we just ignore that inner calling.
Well whether we think our thinking is best or worst without even knowing it, i feel we can be better at appreciating the world if we know, what is the basis our perception !!!
I feel introspection takes courage and then to act upon it take even more of it,,,
What you guys think??

1 more year added to the list
When I was in 20's
I felt it would be great in 30s
And now when I suddenly felt I am 37
I understood there is no heaven
It's all what we think
About whatever happens
And how much we are able to accept!!!

What is Paramount!
A question
Often tinkling in my thoughts
Whenever surrounded
Amid a strong discording onslaughts,,
What's paramount?
When there is no agreeable solution
And clashes find different ways of evolution
Then you just want somehow someway
Get rid of such provocating situation ,,
Let the rights and wrongs
Take their time to proclaim
Just hold your horses to prevent
Further muddle in your brain,,
Sit back and relax
Let peace of mind
To immediately fills in every crack
Dust will settle
And things will get better,,
Yet it won't cease permanently thereafter
As such events continue repeating it's cycle
Thus Make every attempt
In any of such discording event
To have your peace of mind
Being your primary concern,,,
