Afternoon. Two friends were sitting alongside the banks of a
lake in Hauz Khas Fort. It was pretty usual for them to hang out, just the two
of them, they considered themselves brothers, discussing the 'petty' woes of
their daily life, they felt better, as it felt that they could open up to
someone, just to express, maybe, sometimes take advise and change few things,
to make their life better.
They remind me of every single human being in this world,
every problem seems 'petty' once you have let it out of your heart and mind.
Once you have learnt how to face it, it doesn't seem very problematic then. You
see, deep down inside, everyone knows, that life is going to be tough, whether
or not we wish for a better life is different.
Reason: We are afraid to do things, if we knew that life is
good, we wouldn't be afraid to do anything. We get scared, we think, that we
might not be able to do it, maybe that is a waste of time, maybe it will cause
more harm than good.
This is all natural. We were given the power to think, or
for the atheists, we have evolved over a period of time to gain this ability
because we needed it, we required it. Everything we have or we could have or we
use, can be put to a good use or a bad use, doesn't matter if the use is huge
in terms of gain or loss. For example, one, we could use our laptops to
download movies illegally, now that is a bad thing, maybe not that huge, but
bad, or we could use the same laptop to pay for the movie and then download it,
which is a good thing, two, we could use our books and study them for real, or
we could just pretend that we are studying and later on fail, or worse, cheat
in the exams, yes, worse, but that is a totally different thing.
