All that we do has a purpose. Deed is juxtaposition for need. My trying to put it into words is a straight drive through my urge to write something. If this is read by the editor of this blog, this is a repercussion of his search for a worthy article. And finally, if this could make to the readers, to you, then many of you won't deny the latent desperation to kill boredom which brought you to end up at this journal.
So, this is clear that our needs precede our actions. And so is this, that it is like a polymer chain reaction. Effecting us all in some way or the other.
But how often do we think this way? How many times have we thought before making fun of a friend? Not even considering that a mole of him might feel humiliated. With how much sensibility, have we thought before lying to our parents and demanding golds from them, in the same breath?
Uncountable moments I can recall from my past where I had claimed to be empathetic to even strangers' pain and actually, delivered cold feet, even to those whom I knew well.
But all of these deeds are purposeless. No? If we introspect ourselves, we would find only one answer: "We do what pleases us".
Many a time, we find things unacceptable. We find ourselves standing alone against our friends, family, etc. We know that we are right and all we have to do is take a stand. But then, we fall a trap of baits. We negotiate. We give up. And all that is lost, the people, the things which were supposed to be a part of the other side, engrave severe damages. They create an air of discomfort, stress and guilt, in and around us. And eventually, we resolve to ebb it out.
So, do we really have a "purpose"? Are we required to act the way we do?
What would've been the scene, if we were aware of what we were doing? Awareness can save us from such situations. We can have healthy, happy and stress-free relations. We can "Live", instead of dying with shame and burden of unjust decisions.
Be aware of what you do, see clear what you see.
