Is it really really tough to be who you REALLY are ?
Why are we curtailed by societal pressures to be a part of the masses ?
Why do we heedlessly try and copy our peers and fake our existence to be the likes of the kinds that we originally aren't meant to be ?
Why can't everyone around us accept us the way we originally are ?
What's wrong with being different ?
Why should we be the alter ego's of the ideal ?
Doesn't nature itself want us all to be original ? because that is how she has created us, each one different from the other! Each unique yet so authentic.
Nature silently must conspire us to be who we are, but the question is are we listening to her mild and subtle reminders ?
We all spend 90% of our lives doing what we supposedly "have to do",but is it really what we want? is it really our calling in life or is it just a way of wailing away our time to glory, by being stereotypical as well as orthodox and absolutely hysterical to the ideas of experimenting with your own life !
Why do we fill our lives with so much stress,most of which is absolutely unnecessary, and then curse our destiny later on when things start propelling us to the "less traveled path" of which most of us are extremely anxious about because of the degree of uncertainty/risk the path brings along with it? or is it that perhaps life is supposed to be lived that way and that perhaps is what is destined for us and that is what we are made to really do !?!
What makes us think that the stereotypical ways of living are the ones which must take us the right way? What if an unthinkable and untrodden path takes to a place where you truly belong? Why are we not open to new avenues,new ideas,new challenges?
Why are we so head-strong on reinventing the wheel every time? What stops us from doing what we love? is it fear of self,failure or society?
Why are we oblivious to changes ? Why can't we make and accept changes in and around us?
These questions are the ones that our conscience asks us all the time , but do we really have the time to listen ??

ReplyDeleteI'd like you to explain,I'm wondering if you are thinking what I'm thinking..
well what you are saying is absolutely true. there are so many people around us who put on a fake personality, something which they are not, yet they do so as to conform to the standards set by a select few "cool" people. it is really sad, but i personally don't think anything can be done to reverse this regrettable trend.being who you really are requires a lot of courage in todays world, it actually shows if you have a strong character!!!! Though I do believe being stereotypical sometimes helps...
