What We Are

Let me make it clear at the beginning, neither am I the motivational speaker or preacher nor the guy who pushes you to get more of yourself. I am just trying to share what I feel about ourselves. Believe me, we are just normal. We cannot get over anything right? Yes, that’s us; typical teenagers. We are hard at ourselves sometimes and sometimes too soft. We have typhoon swirling in our minds. It's the storm of agony, thunder of love, the avalanche of anger, the flood of woe, and sometimes the slight zephyr of motivation. You find yourself on parabolic curve of a function concave both downwards and upwards- sometimes you get yourself at the local maxima and sometimes at local minima. That's typical of us, completely normal; believe me.

Just little things wandering over our minds every time! Depressions, broken relationships, hardships, boring classes, just a bit of cigarette you started smoking from yesterday, the lecture of mechanics you missed or that wonderful girl from the next section you are desperate to know the name of! The party you missed yesterday because of your parents and the club you are not attending tomorrow because you dare not ask it with your parents. These all things describes us right? The typical days we are going through.

Yes! I am going through it (omit that cigarette thing; thought of my friend while writing about it), and I am damn sure, you are going through it too. You have pressures: pressures for good grade, pressures for building your career. You have dreams and little desires: dreams of having a lot of money or getting successful, desires of having a cute girlfriend and a night out with your friends. You have a lot going on your head. You love that red guitar which you bought when you were at the fifth standard which lies just in-front of you now or that cricket bat behind the door which someday defined your aim. You get clingy with that diary where you spill out all your feelings and your emotions and the laptop at your parents room, where your favourite movies are stored. You cannot get over the songs of Ed Sheeran or John Lenon from your mobile's playlist and can't stop watching the tour of India to Australia with Triple tons on a single game.

Broken relationships hurt a lot. But look at yourself: are you worthy to be such miserable? Think it clear. Where are you? 16, 17, 18? Common! You have your whole life in front. And, count on me, there are lot others waiting for you. You know, like everything in this universe happen to exist in pairs. There is nary a magnet with mono-pole. You are guaranteed to find next pole for your heart someday soon and exist in a perfect dipole. Because, if the things do not attract well, either they are non-magnetic or they are the same poles!

What you think is beautiful. Your mind and your thinking- all are beautiful. The only thing is the way you perceive them. You ought to take everything normal. Being crazy is solution, but on the long run, your kindness acts wonders. If you lose, it's your win; think of it, it opened up a whole new avenue for you to get yourself into it again. Yes, take your failure as a step to your success.

Use every part of you, give your total best in everything you are doing. Take your time but find out what you love the most. Find your passion and get on it. Yes, I know there is no environment for tailing your true and rare passion around here but if you do not get into it now, you will be dammed your whole life. After all, you are living your life, and you are growing up. It's you who has to find happiness. And earning happiness is much more satisfying than anything else.

You may think of you as a mess, searching for sweeter ways to calm yourself. These years are similar for everyone. Never can you breathe love if you cannot inhale a bit of chaos. Have faith on yourself and your potential. Put your faith in your stomach. These are the years of gaining experience. The years for building your base for what you are going to make up of your life. The years, teaching you to walk through this journey called life, just like your father did catching your hands for those first steps of yours.

Yeah, I know this has been heck of a philosophy. But, to sum up, live to the fullest. Take care of yourself. Be harsh on yourself when you need to and get sweet for you too. You know, universe would not exist hadn't there been equilibria. These phases shapes you, and you are the one in control. So, help yourself make it up. Play it, take chances, and be careful of what you are doing. What you do now, will definitely reflect your future.

After all, "The child is father of the man". Right?
