Sometimes life puts us in such a deep trance that we lose track of what is life and what is not. The life that we all lead, me, you and all of us maybe seems to be a fitting example of it. Why are we alive, why are we existent. I am sure that I wasn’t sent on this earth to create ads or an aspiring movie maker wasn’t sent to make movies. How important are the things we do? The answer is not at all, if you think of it. We were sent with the best people on the planet, mom and dad , most of us found love in some form or the other but we keep running and running to find the “so called best things “ which even we don’t know about. We keep running madly in this rat race. Trying to win, to achieve, to strive but for what?? You have the best things, your body, your soul, your life, your parents and your loved ones than why is it that we can’t stop running?? Why is it that we choose to be a rat when we were sent as humans? Is this what we are all alive to do? Is this our purpose of existence, this is a question no one has been able to find the correct answer to. Some may proclaim that they have the answer and that their work is their existence but think about it? Is it really so? Are we doing the right thing by being the mad-men and women we are or should our priorities in life be different and the approach is to experience as many things as we can?
Sometimes I feel I cut through these shackles and just let go free , roam ,wander and experience but again my rationality gets hold of me and says so how is that going to help you ?what about those people you said matter and are an integral part of your life ? Where did they go now? And once again I am left speechless, with no answer, brain trying to understand the ulterior purpose. Rationality trying to shift my focus to my and your presumption of reality, “the brain proclaimed reality”. I suppose that the reason to this rat race, this running blindly after other blind man business is because we haven’t seen the light.
Once our lives see the light of knowledge, of the answer to these complex problems, all our miseries shall drown and life would not be what it is. Maybe it would just shift back a hundred years because maybe life was supposed to be like that. I want you to think, to understand, to consciously think about what we are doing. I know there is nothing I am going to do about it and there is not much I can do but Yeah, maybe this article hopes to find its way into a new path in your life. A path where you pick what your priorities are and for once not listen to the rationality but are true to your heart and soul and your purpose of existence.
It’s about that moment when you decide that a person or that moment is more precious than the fickle deceiving lives we lead. When you choose your loved ones, the things that matter to you over the one’s you shouldn’t. If that happens than unlike the question I posed. The purpose of writing this article is achieved and it shall find its happy ending right there.
A fellow human being killed by rationality.
Rationality ruins us.

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF
There is one person who loves you unconditionally, who will always be with you, who can be your biggest strength and at the same time has the potential to be your biggest weakness. That person is no one else but you. Yes, you can help yourself, it is true!
What many of us lack today is the belief in ourselves, many a times we feel that there are things we cannot do. This is something I cannot do! Whom are we fooling?? We are just trying to fool ourselves! Yes, it may not be the easiest thing to do. There may be many stones in our path. We might need to stand up against ourselves perhaps against near and dear ones or others too but if there is something we truly believe in ,we should give in our hundred per cent towards our dreams. We can do it!
Often it is not just about the dreams that such pessimism comes to our minds, it is about the things we do daily. Once that fear of failure comes in your mind, getting over it is one of the most difficult things to do. People say I am scared of heights, of ghosts or from dingy creatures but research and statistics have proven that the biggest fear that lurks the minds of millions across the globe is the fear of failure. This is what should not be the case as “achievers and brave people are not the ones who do not have fears but they are the ones who overcome those fears”. The moment you conquer a fear, you don’t just conquer that fear but you become a stronger person and add to your self- belief. Self belief is something that is present in each and everyone , often in life it may get deranged but it is in our best interest to get the optimism and re-instill that belief within us that yes, we can do it.Remeber “you can , If you think you can! “.
It is your best friend because when you have self belief even the most difficult task will start to seem to be simpler for you and if not simpler at least you will be positive about your potential to do it but the moment you lose it, it will become your biggest foe by hindering you to do even the simplest of tasks which you are otherwise capable of doing.
We have been blessed with a healthy body and a mind; we have all the ingredients that are required to lead a life that is zestful. Now it is up to us to blend those ingredients we possess and get ourselves what we truly deserve. You are who you think you are thus, have faith in yourself and set out to achieve those things you think you truly deserve, there is no reason why you should not be able to achieve them!
Here‘s hoping that you will learn to trust, have faith and belief in yourself and all these will be your biggest assets and tools to polish the diamond – “life”.
