Don't ask "Why", ask instead "Why not". quote by John .F. kennedy
Ever thought of a life when all wishes can come true? What would you wish for? Money, rule the world, flourishing business, good job, promotion, getting married to the one you love, big house, cars.... etc etc. What is it that one would wish for ? Please don't say global peace, we are not running a beauty pageant and you are not a qualifier.
Yes , we only want peace when we feel saying the right thing will get us to win accolades. Well, choose to disagree with my this comment then do show me how will you ever think of world peace, when our wishes and wants are constantly flooding our mind. Every single day, every moment we only want and if our want is not met we question the delay. "Why" the most abused word after sorry which i personally find used by everyone.
We want to be logical for everything that defies our belief or mindset. Yet we would never ask this question if things go our way. Sounds strange that our logic defies us when an unexpected gain comes our way, but we can cry foul and keep asking "why me" if we come under pressure or loss. How can a mind be so divided in logic? I fail to understand this and even if i try to make myself understand, i don't think i will even touch the tip of reasoning.
I read it somewhere this beautiful quote which i feel we all seem to be in is "I, myself and iceberg."
Obviously our selfish needs adhere to i and myself, i believe Iceberg is the logic left behind for anything else which does not concern us.
The tip of the iceberg is "Why" at times its to the beginning of our existence, at times its about whats happening, at times it to question an action or a reaction. Sounds interesting if you ask me . Every single step we seem to ask "why" more than accepting the unaccepted and projecting " Why not".
Maybe someday we will all evolve and the iceberg will melt.
But then it's one life, my life is what i have. If i am not selfish and take care of my needs and wants then who would? The question is not about who or why, but the question is if i want to live my life on my terms, why not? If this makes sense then i guess all other should fall in place too.
Similarly, everything that happens in my life can be looked by this perspective if i choose to be open. There are times i don't want to give any explanation of my actions to anyone. And thats when i feel when people ask me why, if i say because i wanted to or why not. This explanation should be enough.
Maybe this transformation within will take years, or maybe its already there and the boundaries need to be broken for someone to take the first step. But either way, if one does not move from the negativity of Why to positivity of why not our control freak mind will keep on ruling us as always.
Why does one need to give any reason or explanation for their actions? Why not we just let people be who they are. Why do we have to be always so logical, why not let the inner child be there to have fun. Why do we always have to live life by rules, why not let the magic of uncertainty take over at times. Why do we have to always be cautious of what we say, why not let the heart say what it wants to say.
The iceberg will stay and we will only touch the tip of it. As all our desires, wants, ambitions, aggression will be below our calm exterior of I and myself. The two faced characters are here to stay if we choose to live the mundane existence. Life will always deal a rough hand, why do we have to live by the rules made by humans for humans.
Why not - is a slogan for an interesting life.
