1. You see, a majority of human population thinks about life the same way, they all be like “let’s be thankful and grateful for what we’re having. Look for happiness in those little things, I have an amazing partner and 2 kids and a decent job, what more do I need in life?? “
Well, let me tell you, the whole philosophy here is fucked up!
You see, we can’t blame the individual. It’s the society, the whole civilization has been that way!
I say do not normalise the concept of getting satisfied with whatever it is.
You might have a decent job, a decent career, but in this world, no one gives a shit about decent things. You’re born to be great; greatness is what you should strive for.
Not these mediocre things, A mediocre life!
2. People think they are happy with their lives doing jobs they never wanted to get into in the first place or having a partner & experiencing love, like that’s everything they need!!
No, you morons, life is not just about that!
3. See I find it so difficult to explain someone who doesn’t even know what’s his passion is.
In this modern civilization, there is no meaning for the words passion and freedom.
No, am not talking about India getting independence on August 15th, 1947, that’s not real freedom. You would never really know what freedom looks & feels like in this present world because from the very beginning by which I mean taking birth, you’re already a product of the environment, the society, the world around you which doesn’t implant the ideas of passion or freedom into our brains.
4. All they want us to do is follow, to obey, obedience is all they ask out of us.
And while growing, trust me, 99% of the children are not exposed to the ideas of exploration & discovery of self.
Everything is already in place, there are rules, there are regulations.
Holy fuck !!, such a pity to be able to grow & live a life based on rules & regulations. Yes, rules and regulations are the technical terms, not tradition because in my opinion tradition is nothing but a spiritual way of saying it.
5. In their 20’s, these young people, being a victim of this modernization and so-called traditions & fucked up society, they get into jobs they hate and get paid a very tiny bit of income, way lesser than what they actually deserve because that’s what these companies pay, right?!
And then they dream, they hope that if they continue doing that, they might be able to afford a vehicle (hey! petrol isn’t cheap by the way) and then they need a house, then something else and it goes on for some time until they realise, they can’t do it anymore.
In no time, you’re 50 and looking back, you can never realise how the whole system has fucked you up because at that point in time, you don’t really wanna feel like you wasted it all.
So, you convince yourself that everything you did was a part of the responsibility and are now thankful for having that car, the house or whatever the fucking materialistic thing that is.
6. That’s how life goes on, you teach your kids the same, they teach their kids the same and just like that, 3 generations are fucked up because of you!
7. What I say is, take risk when you can! Like in early 20’s when you’re young and full of energy, decide what you should be doing for the next 10 years so that the rest of your life, you can live in peace. Most people out there do it the other way, they spend their 20’s doing things they don’t really wanna be doing so that they could earn some money and take-up responsibilities too soon as if there are no 30s and 40s and 50s for you to live. And eventually end up in deep shit where life becomes a joke – “Zero risks taken: 100 fucks given! “
8. The main reason people are blind towards 30’s and 40’s is Marriage. Okay am not gonna bring that topic in here but you know how much of a role it plays in deciding how your life’s going to be played out. Be it for good or worse, it’s inevitable, isn’t it? (or is it not?). I just want people to understand one basic thing, that you and your life is much more than just the marriage. Make no mistake about it, am not against the concept but against the perception that the society has toward marriage.
9. We human beings are born on purpose, there is some fucking purpose to our lives. Don’t be too late to realise and fulfil them. What good in living 100 years when you are not even aware of your capabilities, not seeing the beauty of life, not realising your true potential.
10. To live life to its fullest & to truly enjoy life lies in the pain, the struggle, the process. Not in the achievements. It is a general misconception that enjoyment comes from comfort and pleasure. It might, to a very small degree, but most of it truly comes from satisfying your heart, your soul. Most of you who disagree to this might have never felt it because when all you do is chasing instant gratification, the real pleasure that comes from hard work, with pain & struggle feels demotivating.
11. If you think working for someone else is paying you good and that’s a career, the whole purpose of you reading this is useless. Again, I don’t blame you, we are all born with these imposed set of guidelines. A guy who hates his boss, yet working everyday not just 9-5, but overtime until he can work no more before he needs some sleep, for the outside world, gains a lot of respect in the society. A guy who is working his ass off just to master his artistic skills to become an artist, doesn’t even get bare minimum of respect. You can argue about this, but it is just an example. My point is simple, there is very little place or respect for someone who wants to be different and not like an average guy.
12. People are so fucking insane these days that if you stand up & tell them you are taking a different direction in your life or career, they come up with suggestions and they don’t want you to make mistakes, they want to correct you even before you make one. Most of them act like they care but they don’t! All they are is envious and jealous that maybe you gonna succeed and just the feeling of it is so hard for them to digest. It hurts their ego that “how the hell is he gonna disobey all that we obeyed to and become an example!”. It kills their own existence. But that’s not what we humans deserve, we deserve to fail, we deserve to learn from own mistakes and rise through failures.
13. People who choose different paths, who doesn’t want an average life, who are willing to go against the odds, stand against the norms of this society comes with a very pure heart. They are not envious like 99% of you. They try to prove just one point that if they can succeed by going against the so-called standards and set an example, more people are going to be inspired & society will be a better place for the coming generations. That’s so foolish of them to even think that they individually can bring a change, but guess what, they dare, they believe, they just don’t give a fuck about what others think of them or their judgements.
