Escape

"A path to innovation and a path to destruction, bound by the same chains of human limitations."

Limitations of need, desire, happiness, pain, suffering and existence.

Who defines these limitations? Who defines the right and the wrong? The good from the bad, the true from the false, the YOU from the ME.

We all make mistakes. That's how we have been crafted and made. To err, to fall, to suffer. We all, at some point of time in our lives have woken up at nights due to bad dreams. Dreams - They reflect the conscience in a peculiar manner that often goes unnoticed.

We have lied and we have cheated. We have broken a few hearts and we have been heart broken. We have betrayed and tasted the bitter experience when someone doesn't live up to our expectations. We have broken a few promises too. We have laughed and we have cried. Sometimes the smiles and tears have gone unnoticed. The cycle of life takes us to myriad places, eventhough we haven't moved an inch. We have been blamed and have taken the blames also. We have been the transmitter and we have been the receiver.

And yet,

We all have risen from the ashes, to condemn our actions of the past, to correct our mistakes, to fly again, to search for happiness and to mince the pain. The path we choose undermines who we are. The path that differentiates the YOU from the ME.

Mortal lives, Immortal thoughts.

And before the words get entangled and before you shun this as "OBSCURE"!

In a nutshell, your inner happiness and the path you follow differentiates the right from the wrong, the good from the bad and the YOU from the ME.

You may hurt a thousand people and you may betray a thousand more. But, never cheat yourself and more importantly never cheat your heart. "Ironically, it's harder to forgive self than to forgive others."

Learn to know what you want. Learn to read what you desire. Learn to mark the path that will make you a hero or a villain.

Moments in life can be weird, ruthless, funny and generous. Often, the greatest kings, the scientists, the accomplishers have been all alone, especially when they needed to share their happiness and success.

So in this pursuit for happiness, play well. Choose your path well.

Remember, Life is what we want it to be. "WE"

Empathy and Sympathy are two faces of the same coin. You may get through as a winner at the end of the day and you may look back and absolve your past based on your present. Your state of mind will always determine how you look back at the past. Your success is as relative as everything else in this life. It is as relative as our existence. It will either comprehend your happiness or increase the hurting. A single moment of truth, a moment of realization is enough to break a million fake smiles and a hollow world that you portray to the world. Stay clear. Choose your path well.

And in the end, the only one who will be answerable to our actions, our choices, our decisions is "US". The sooner we realize this, the sooner we can escape.

We often tend to make ourself believe that "This is what I wnat in my life" only to realize that this wasn't exactly the thing that i was looking for. People make it to their dream jobs, people settle down, with rich husbands and beautiful wives (Vice-Versa, not literally), people sacrifise things that they feel "Were not meant to be" to find themselves stuck and confused in the end. The problem is, we pretend that we know, but not often do we really know "what we want". And thats the irony of life. Life will give you the chances and leave you to make the choices. We have to know, that the choices we make is what we want. Damn!! too philosophical again. Maybe you are right. It is the culmination of frustration.

:), if that is the case, then there should be no un-happy man on this planet, each gettin what they wanted!

I fear, choice has much more to do than just what we want ! :)

Whoever said that the choices we make are for teh good and that they will bring happiness. Yes, i agree that choices are just not restricted to what you want, but i believe that "Our wants" (Subjective) are the major force behind the choices we make. Hope u get my point ;)
