"The Way of the World"
We seldom think about the world and the way it works, and usually we are not in line with the way it works. When we look at it, it is filled with passion, passion which is simultaneously useless and useful, and it filled us with desperation and a desire to experience something different, something unique. But this is again the way of life that life goes on, every moment, every instant just keeps on going without considering about others. When we say that we do not have time to consider certain things into consideration because we want to experience life with a close contact with the people. In the pursuit of this life, we keep on missing the important aspect of life while living in delusion. Now when people claim to say "delusion is the solution", they want to get their wishes and desires. This is so ironic that the life as it seems keeps on passing near us but still we remain in a useless pursuit of that life. Life welcomes us with open arms but we are in some other delusion, unaware of our true nature. We are engrossed living according to the way of the world. but still this way of the world leaves us broken and depressed. Hope is something that keep us going in this pursuit, but what if we have lost all hope. Have you ever seen someone, whose eyes seemed devoid of all the emotions, who seem to be in fight with this world. How do you feel about someone like that when you meet with that person? Does this make you wonder what makes them in this way or you judge them in the worst way? Do you really think that they are the worst people of the world? Again what if that is the way of the world, to overpower others, to suppress someone in the heat of the moment. Can this make us live in happiness? Can we really be satisfied with our life? Can love really fulfill us? Turn us into beloved of someone? Offer us a satisfying answer to life? Maybe for some, it can and for some it is unable to provide a sufficient answer. Perhaps it depends on how we perceive life going on all around us? But those who find answers decorate their hearts and welcome love, full of passion towards certain things. and it is not necessary that the thing they opened their heart is a human being, sometimes it is money, position, status or ideology. When one opens his heart, the way of the world changes for him or her. Love filled him and he devotes his life towards his goal, ambition and aim. Maybe the Problem lies in the fact that nobody talks about it or is this a problem of representation.
