| "I AM BORN RIGHT NOW, AND SHALL DIE THE SAME MOMENT"..... |
If I may be allowed to chase the wildest of my whims, I certainly would coagulate my experiences into a dark corner of my existence and start all over again.Its not because my failures outnumber my accomplishments and I crave to rectify or rather reverse the scenario, its more because I still want to experiment with what has gone by in a manner different than what I had already done.
Yes, I have been an experimenter and I have failed many a times.But still, I render myself luckier than those "Lab rats" who have been peremptorily tested by the established social norms of what they mistake to be SUCCESS.Its more like a measured observation that has been under scrutiny for ages and the younger ones are fed to the test just to validate the authenticity of the blind hypothesis.I wish not to continue with what has been incessantly carried out like Androids of the Star-Wars. We might not see it, but intangibly, we indeed have entered an age of MATRIX where the unknown variables keep aggravating while dwindling numbers of actual solutions that really solve the complexities of the aggrieved souls.
All I wish for is an end to this recurring phenomenon of unfulfillness and insatiability.Despite our continous efforts to bring that coveted stillness that makes the meaning of being in existence meaningful,the dismal state still prevails.I dont want to plunge in deep seas of spirituality to find the pearls of wisdom.Such sparkles with dazzles of wisdom have eluded me and its mystic nature does not really come to the rescue of those who are naive and too rugged to cast the enigmatic reflections of celestial beings.
I try to make it simpler and more pragmatic.Simple enough to be practised by a rusted mind like mine.A childs play, making me carefee and frivolous and thus enabling me to retain the innocence, the sanctity and the numbness with which I was born.May this quest continues till the end of my time and finally when I will run out of it, I will smile and say, "I AM BORN RIGHT NOW, AND SHALL DIE THE SAME MOMENT".....
Sam...as compelling this piece was...it was a little confusing too...Of course I would totally understand exactly what you wish to express...but considering that you might want to target a wider viewership...an alien person would find the above piece tough to understand, and thereafter derive a conclusion. No doubt, the intricate thoughts that you have incorporated here, are, as always, golden. But their very essence gets lost in understanding the winding sentences.
ReplyDeleteKeep the sentences short. Long sentences, like you have used here, put the reader's mind to test (I know you would want that, wouldn't you?) But what any reader would look for in such short pieces, is something which is easy to grasp and draw a conclusion from. Simple, short sentences make reading delightful. In addition, they leave less scope for errors.
Always remember, every time you finish drafting a piece, re-read it from the point of view of a person who might come to know about you and your being 'only' from what you write in that particular piece, and judge if you would want to come back in near or far future and read this author again?
(Now wasn't that a long sentence? And didn't you have to read it twice? I hope you get my point.!)
Hungry for more..
Till next
