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!!

Journey is what matters
Awaiting for an end
In my search of an end
Somehow i begin
To end the search
Of finding an end
With a sensible enlightenment
And a journey begins
Where journey is all that matters

Those unknown dimensions
In this intoxication of setting myself free
I am lost somehwere in an unknown domension
Being here
Its calm all around, everywhere
And it becomes chaotic
As i turn myself to investigate
Where i am!!!
What a state to be in!!!

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

Random thoughts
A heart
Longing for freedom
To follow it's intuition
When got free
A sudden realisation
To wake him from hallucination
It wasn't ever caged
In the hue of controlling thoughts
Clarity was turned into haze,,
Somewhat lousy
A little douzy
Seems ignoring
A lot
What was held for long,,,

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!!!

Just think
If Love can be termed as incomplete
What in this world can be
So called Complete
If distance isn't real
What in this world can be
So called distant
If being practical is life
What in this world can be
So called feelings,,,
If one has to act like someone
What in this world can be
So called unique,,
