What It Means To Be Human
Oxford dictionary defines “human” as some words I don’t remember. Same goes with Wikipedia, Webster’s dictionary and so on…
How I define “human” is way different than heavy words and grammatical corrections! It’s more than words. It’s about emotions really and how amazingly we can channel each emotion to create something extraordinary.
“Feel the Extraordinary”….
We as humans can feel the things beyond our imagination. We can feel unconditional emotions! Like Empathy, Compassion, Love, Kindness and so much more! And that too, for total strangers!
But we limit ourselves! We don’t use the “Human Superpower” to the fullest!
We are contained within the things we’ve been taught by our mentors or friends!
We desire for more and more but for materialism.
What will happen if we start to desire for more emotions to flow inside us? Of course you do !
But the wrong ones!
We tend to desire the negative emotions more than the positives. Hence, the violance, hatred, crimes and destruction! Now don’t tell me it is to balance things out! No amount of negativity is to balance or for good!
Yes yes! I know! Humans are of different perspectives and have different types of backgrounds, hence the negativity! But can’t we change it!?
Just imagine a life, where the only negativity you face is the office politics!
Initially, it will be suffocating and annoying! Like, why is everyone so nice!? Then, you’ll doubt everyone’s move, like what do they want from you , why are they being so nice!!?
Isn’t this what happens today?
The real, genuinely nice people are suffering the doubts of ‘to be nice humans’ …
Their desire to “Feel the Extraordinary” is diminished to anxiety and loneliness!
Hence, they start feeling the negativity more than anyone!
But if only we could be more UNDERSTANDING!!
If only we could “Understand the Impossible!”
I mention “impossible” because if we can assume the worst case scenarios in everything, we can as well understand the impossible!
If we could understand someone being rude, that they might be having a rough day or a rough patch personally!
If we could understand if someone is hating us, it doesn’t mean they really hate us! But that’s the only feeling they know!
If we could understand, why someone is talking bad things about us, that may be they admire us secretly but they’re habitual to stay on top! And it’s okay!
If we could understand, that violance is not the way, that hatred can ruin us in return, we would have been more peaceful!
I know, there’s no way, we can always understand the impossible, but we can try and ignore it for once. Take a stand for ourselves sometimes, but keeping yourself sane at times of crisis is far more a power than indulging with people who won’t even listen!
But ,what it means to be human?
And who am I to tell you that!?
Well, I am a human and to be human, is to support other beings in existence and in surviving. In fighting and in thriving. In struggling and in growing. In losing and in winning.
To be Human, is to be Human in EVERY situation.

Don’t Produce Kids
I am not asking you to not have sex. Let’s be clear. Do whatever you want to. People are doing what they want anyway! But please use protection. It’s definitely the most important resource right now. With everything happening around us, it’s important not to make any further mistakes! We’ve already committed plenty.
The people who are getting married or planning a family, guys please think about it!!!! Do you REALLY want another ranting human being? That kid would rant more than we do! Especially for cleaner air to breathe, water to drink and playfields!!! That kid would have more social media accounts than the number of teeth!
You want a kid? Adopt One! There are so many kids surviving without a family! Give them one. May be they’ll survive better.
Truth is, what have we achieved being born?!! We are the pawns of time! Moreover, Pawns of the system!
We choose leaders who are here to fulfill their intentions.
We choose lovers who cheat on us.
We choose jobs that we don’t really fit in.
We choose expenses that we really can’t afford!
We CHOOSE our lives.
Yet, we blame it on life.
Who do you think will face the consequences of OUR choice? Us? No. Not at all. We’ll be long gone, struggled, survived, fought and won may be!But the next generations will thank you ????
For pollution.
For debts.
For laws that doesn’t make any sense.
For poverty that really doesn’t go away!
For resources that won’t exist anymore!
For climate change.
For global warming.
For being born under such drastic circumstances, even when we knew what was coming!!!
Keeping aside the people who’re doing SOMETHING to attain the resources and rights back, trying to bring in the change we ALL want and NEED, what are the rest of us doing?We are creating humans to LIVE IN THE WORLD THAT WE DIDN’T HELP BUILD!!!!
YES. You did nothing!! You just stood there,watching and wasting all the resources!
These people may not even read this!! But if you know anyone who’s wasting stuff, share this with them! And if you’re the one who’s trying to save it, THANKYOU. Keep it up. But still, DON’T PRODUCE KIDS.
THERE’S NO POINT.
It all sounds so negative and demotivating right?
Well, that’s not intended.
It’s just the bitter truth!
Think it this way! This is a very crucial time for economy.
We’re all managing finances somehow. Fulfilling our needs via EMIs and savings.
A kid’s expenses are twice or thrice of your monthly income! Plus the stress and anxiety. Your freedom will go away. No more hanging out with buddies and no more vacations with friends!
So SAVE YOURSELF , MONEY AND YOUR LIFE.
SAY NO TO KIDS.
If you still want kids, then you should become a good no no, a better human being altogether. Else, the next generation will dance on your head without a question and then it’ll be too late. You’d wish, if they were never born or if there’s a chance the world can end soon!!!
Oh wait! Is That what you’re contributing for??!!!!
Ohhhhhhhhhh…..
Now I get it!!!!!
You’re CONTRIBUTING TO END THE WORLD SOONER THAN IT’S SUPPOSED TO, so that you won’t have to raise the kids YOU CHOSE TO PRODUCE.
Okay! My bad. Keep going.

Happiness Is A Loophole
Are you happy today?
Or right now?
Did you just sigh at the question?
Did you say ‘I don’t know’?
Why do you care that I am asking this?
How would it affect me if you’re Happy Or Not Happy?
It only affects YOU.
I have been calling up happiness as the most important emotion for a long time. Happiness is overrated. Of course, everyone seeks to be it.
But the search destroys you emotionally!
Keep reading and you’ll know why!
I am not talking about Money Doesn’t Buy Happiness crap! That’s damn stupid and cliché to even think about it!
I am talking about the constant need to be happy.
Like,
“At work , I have been feeling a little off today. Why can’t I be happy? May be if I sleep, I’ll feel better afterwards.”
“I just woke up and I am already feeling low! What’s my problem! I can’t figure it out and I can’t be happy! I want to be happy, that’s the only way towards peace!”
Or is it?
You want peace or you want happiness?
You can’t have both if you keep running in search of the thing you will never find if you don’t have peace, a.k.a. Happiness!
Does this make you uncomfortable?
Keep reading, you’ll be anxious towards the end!
No I am kidding, you’ll feel the emotion, you’re meant to feel RIGHT NOW!
Did you just get the idea what I am talking about?!
I think you did!
Anyway, keep reading to prove you got it right…
There are so many emotions now, that we never experienced before. Now we freak out if feel anything but happy! Well, we should not! This world has over-sold the idea of Happiness. So much so, that we WAIT for a certain phase or emotion to be over so that we can FiNAlly, be Happy! We keep searching for it in innumerable things or people or places.
” May be if I take a vacation i’ll be happy.
May be if I talk to my love, I’ll be happy.
May be if I call-in sick from work and take a day off,
I’ll feel better!…”
And this MAY BE goes on and on…We keep searching, keep on the mission to be happy, without actually knowing what Happiness really is and How it CAN be felt!
I am not going to tell you that Happiness is Within Ourselves, because if you’re reading this ,you know that already and this sentence didn’t work for you that is why you are here may be! You didn’t FIND it WITHIN YOU!
You can’t.
Yes. Its true.
You won’t find happiness within yourself, because we as living beings have infinite emotions within us and we can’t focus on just one! Within us, is an ocean of feelings, tiding their way one by one to the shore. Happiness sure tides up and goes back… Something else comes again, may be sadness or numbness… Happiness again…. Washes off the shore, all the worries taken away… Stress comes again… Leaves some residue… Happiness again, takes all of it away… This cycle keeps on going.
Do you know why we are depressed and anxious ? I don’t know man! I don’t have all the answers all the time , because trust me, I feel the same. So I have accepted the fact that its okay to be feeling anything if not happy or to feel nothing at all. Life is like that. Accept this and you’ll find peace at least.
P.S. This never aimed to tell you HOW TO BE HAPPY! Read anything ,you won’t find happiness, because (oh wait! I told you already!). Well, read this again then!
This is such an insightful perspective. It’s true—no matter how much we engage with others, our minds are constantly processing,…
Congratulations!! 🌻🌟☀️
