Life is to live, every moment cannot be planned and every success is not guaranteed. But one thing is for sure, to err is human and we can only experience life through our mistakes. That nagging feeling, when we get stuck in the "what if" cycle of not taking chances because we are scared of the outcome.
Then one day as we look back in our life, "what if" plays a big role in shaping us. We reminisce our past, come up with different answers to the same question, yet we will never know the out come as we never took that chance.
It's like some people like seeing the world through books, while other experience it by travelling and being out there. Its always a matter of what we are willing to do makes us who we are. Some where i feel we have put so many restrictions on ourselves, some knowingly while others unknowingly. How do 7.6 billion people live in harmony? We have built a society structure of do's. We have built in religion, to ensure people move in herds. We have built in social & civic responsibility in this structure and then we have built an hierarchy to this structure. We have built money and credit, so we keep working, aspiring for a better life and never question the source of all this stupidity. Any one who breaks this is an Outlaw. Punishments are severe depending on the rules broken.
In the end, let me ask you this question : Who has made the rules for you to live your life?
Not today, but think about this question and do give it a thought.
We propagate , "Let go", " forgiveness is better than revenge", "Live life", "Change starts from within" etc etc.... so many quotes, so many thoughts.... yet who is telling you all this? This is what we have grown up with, we all are perfect example of how to live through some one's vision of controlling human mind.
But then, if there are no rules or law & order, we see how people behave. Some where this model has not worked, because Man is an animal first, evolution has surely happened and we have learnt to talk, but then even animals talk among themselves, its only we don't know what they are saying. Then why are we so scared of being who we are. Why when the law & order breaks down, half of us show our innate dna of being ferocious animals while other show them being scared and coward. Strange the way we are controlled is the way we want to control everyone.
What if, the ape had never learnt to walk straight? What if, we humans had learnt to be kind to all animals and humans? What if, we had worked towards protecting our resources than running after the money and depleting our resources ? What if , we did not exist? what if, all this is an illusion?
Will this "What if" be yet another chance which could have made a difference?
May be - May be not, we will never know.
Sometimes you wonder who is actually calling the shots in your life.
What if i fail? but darling.... What if you Fly?
