"I think thefore I am"? Think again.


I’m not sure if it’s that time of the year where one feels the need for deeper reflection. The mind occupied, the heart congested, the soul restless yet calm. How blessed is the man who has arrived at his resting place with fruitful peace.

Many a time people claim to have many worthy achievements. Antipathy, peace, happiness, or fun are just some of the great achievement the inhabitants of a concrete jungle claim to have accomplished. But really, to what extent?

A.N.T.I.P.A.T.H.Y

How many times have we heard one declare: “I don’t care” when later is found in the shower sobbing for lost friendship, hurt by alienation, angered by injustice, in anguish over  lack of comfort?

P.E.A.C.E

How many times have we heard one declare: “ I’m am at peace with my decision”; later that same person is found running away from the reminder of past “what could have beens” , affected by some news pertaining to the subjects of that “peaceful decision” while forcing the self to turn into a great bundle of happiness.

H.A.P.P.I.N.E.S.S

Happiness?
 Happy is the man who fills his life with material wealth; he buys everything his heart desires. Happy is the man who desires material wealth?

Happy is the man whose life is as calm as a quiet desert; the many lies buried under the scorching desert sand. Happy are the people who see this man as the oasis that gives great life.  A life of deceit and ill praise that only death would justice stand firm.

Happy is the man who has a multitude of friends, who laugh and make merry in a time of great power and riches. These same “friends”  will grow quiet when the day of justice arrives. Death shall be his comfort.

Happy is the man who finds comfort in untruth. Though the storm will never rage, the heart will never experience pure joy.

F.U.N
Fun. It is for the moment. Enjoy it while it lasts. Only the one who is with a pure heart, genuine sincerity, honesty and openness will have fun turn into joy that lasts in the mind’s eye, and heart.


Achievement is a comfort to most. But honesty to one’s self is the only way to be moulded; the only way to “the truth, the way, and the life”.
