In defiance of convention...

In times when career, boss, girlfriend, multiplex, promotion, marriage, home loan should govern my world, I find time to get frustrated. Frustrated because everything and everyone around seem to be disturbing the natural order of things or rather what should be the natural order of things.

A random conversation with a friend went even more random, when she told me that I am man who is not ignorant which makes me see beyond the obvious and that I am humane which makes me identify injustice. However, she added that I am not an intellectual, so I act on what I see and don’t think and write and read before taking a tiny step.


Instead of giving me red cheeks and an inflated ego, that made me more frustrated. I don’t know if she was just playing with words or she meant everything she said. But may be she delicately put me in equilibrium of “To be or not to be”. 



I see people. People with biases, people with biases about people, people hating people, people hurting people. I manage to see various parallel worlds of agenda, propaganda, deceit, secrecy existing where things seem normal.

What do I do? Does the frustration fade away? Does everybody feel like me? Is this just my wandering impulse causing the entire stir?

Do I chase the dreams that have been fed to my eyes and conscience a trillion times… over the years? Is there too much at stake? Should I? Will I?

Should I break away any shackles and let my thoughts overwhelm me?

For now….we shall wait… trusting the firmness of the shackles.
