What is life? Is it the beating of heart in your body the physical essence that we carry or what? I don’t believe in any of it Life is what we make of it. We all live our lives pursuing the dreams that our parents have set for us. The better way of putting it up would be: Dreams that our ancestors have passed down the generations which our parents pass down to us and with the dream of fulfilling of those dreams we have to live our lives. What an irony.

I know I may be sounding a lil hypocrite but think about it: when we were young our parents took decisions for us. When we were teenagers we were asked to study. After studying we were asked to make a career; after making the career we are asked to settle down. After settling down we are asked to start a family after starting a family we live for our kids. And eventually those kids just leave us and walk away. So where have we lived for ourselves. We always have lived for our parents, our partners & our kids, in the end we have forgotten to live for ourselves which we realize quite late in our lives.

We as human beings put on a charade always thinking that we are happy in our lives but the truth is we are never happy. We are the unhappy souls however the human being still finds some sort of happiness amongst this which is quite surprising.

We have always tend to make our lives so complicated that we start to despise it and always try to live in the fantasy world of how would our lives be if were one of the most successful people on the earth. However we tend to forget that success is just like the tip of the iceberg, the base is full of problems. Despite having success, fame and fortune to these people they still unable to enjoy themselves. They are unable to enjoy a simple things in life like a meal, a simple walk barefooted on the grass. I wish I could find the answer to this question. It is said that we all find the answers to all of our questions in life eventually, but what is the use of these answers when you wanted it the most.

In short life is The process of continually downsizing all hope and expectations; an endless downward spiral of false hopes that are there only to be crushed and  you are left empty inside longing for a purpose.

It is The act of ‘being’ in a period of time that is completed by death. The act of ‘being’ however is distorted and blurred by the act of ‘having’ in today’s social twisted folk. Consequently society and its subordinates don’t pursue their real aim of ‘being’ but are forced by mass media and propaganda-spreading so-called governments to the act of ‘having’ which is therefore a self-destructive act and will result in the implosion of mankind.
