Alive or Just Breathing?

After delving into some pointless research I observed that statistics (and not a made up one) say that more than half the people are satisfied with status quo as far as living life goes rather than looking out for newer possibilities. I get it, Newton's First Law of inertia. 

"A body continues to be in a state of rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force"

Two points to be observed here.

1. It says 'body'. Sure, scientifically speaking it includes all bodies living/dead/imaginary, but since this is not a blog on science (*sigh*), when do we use the word body generally? Hmm 'Anybody','somebody', but again this isn't a blog on the English language either (*sigh*). So, no points for guessing, we usually use the term body for corpses. Urges me to think whether the law should apply to living, mobile beings like us humans.

2. Does it ever happen in practical life that a body continues moving incessantly? So should the law actually have any significance to us humans and our way of living then? 

So, I've (yet again) proved using my evergreen flawless logic that the Law of inertia is null and void as far how we live our lives is concerned. People who want a constant life, no extreme points are well medically alive but dead in all other aspects. The EKG graph of a person who is dead is a straight line, no ups and no downs. Just putting it out there.

ALIVE

dead

At some point of life, you got to ask yourself the question, are you alive or just breathing? The earlier, the better.

Everyone has a USP (Unique selling point). Yes, even the most obtuse, vapid and moronic person (in your opinion) that comes to your mind will have something to offer if you think hard enough. Then why is it that some 'talents' are considered more valuable than the others? Playing good football is always welcome, but not at the cost of that B grade in mathematics. To be able to play guitar well is only appreciated till you retain your rank in the class. And if someone is good at wrestling or kabaddi, sorry man better luck next life because these things are way too unconventional to be even considered. Why so much judgement? There is such rampant judgement in today's world that many of us complete this journey of life unconsciously without once discovering our true selves.

When it comes to employment there is judgement, sexual orientations are judged viciously, but the worst and the most harassing form of judgement is the judgement of thought process. It kills ideas, and a person is nothing without ideas, in fact humanity is nothing without progressive ideas. In school, we are 'taught' how to think and react to situations, something that we must learn and adopt individually, this is what creates uniqueness. Today, we are a herd of sheep. 9/10 people will give the same answers in an interview to questions based on ethics. Where is the diversity? And the screwed up part is that if they don't give those answers, they're deemed unfit most times. Because even the employers do not want someone with free thought process, it will be tough to tame him. When they say 'out of the box' thinking, be assured they mean only in terms of monetary profit for the organisation and not in a holistic way. We are taught solutions to problems rather than to stimulate our thought process.

And no one is judgement free, NO ONE. There are people, for instance the religious ones who claim that homosexual behaviour is an act of defiance to God. These people are dangerous. But there is another sect of people who are further dangerous, the ones who 'claim' to be judgement free, but secretly judge, secretly hate.

People judge others on political opinions, they come to blows if you don't support the same political party. I have used this example a lot of times and will use it again. If you see poop on the sidewalk, do you jump into it and wrestle against it and argue as to why it's there? Or do you just choose to ignore it and walk on? 

Why can't it be the same with ideas?

Another Vague Attempt..

What can I say, romance has gripped me. Not the kind which is popular - falling in love and other things. Out of all the 'elements' around us, the romance with the other sex accounts for a very little and insignificant part in life. The major part of life is, life. And what better than romancing it? It is around you, at all times, in everything. It is what theists call God.
Life is God, love is God. What is it we ultimately seek? Not love, not satisfaction, not success. These are merely means to an end - Happiness. The easiest way of being happy I have discovered is not some weird complex calculation of feelings. You want to be happy? Simple. Go ahead and be happy. As easy as that, no bullshit. In life, there are many things which have been placed out of our control, a majority of things actually. But the most important feeling, the sole reason of existence some might argue, is right where it should be, in our tightly clenched fists.
The other feelings such as sadness, is something that has been taught to us by the society for most parts. We tend to feel sad 10 times more often than we 'actually' feel sad. Failed in an exam? You got to be sad. Tanked a job? Drown in booze. Humans indulge in self pity. Why else are break up songs so popular? At some level, we imitate what we see. We mirror feelings of the society around. Ever catch yourself feeling something on the outside but something very different on the inside? One example is feeling sorry for someone. Such an indifferent term this - feeling sorry for a person. You try to get involved and attached with that person without actually getting anywhere close to the details and emotions that make that person. It is a way of fulfilling your social obligation. And social obligation is so confining, so superficial, so fake.
Freedom is what I seek, from this mask that we wear. Freedom from saying things said in a movie (said by someone else), freedom from thoughts read in a book written by someone else. Shake it all off. All this dirt and copied emotions sticking to one's self like toxic carbon sticking to your car's piston. It is then, you will find your true self, who you really are.
And who has found true happiness without discovering one's self?
