Life... or Death...
Light... or Darkness...
Faith... or Logic...
Wisdom... or Ignorance...
Somebody said... I am trapped in a world of my own... can't get out and complicate myself even more...
Actually that was almost like saying I am autistic...
Maybe...maybe I am...
But, aren't we all trapped in our own worlds? Aren't our souls trapped in our own bodies?
Imagine if we're "not trapped". It is as if there is no gravity force governing the law of physics...
It is as if there is no frame around a painting...
It is as if there is no beach along an ocean...
It is as if there is no topic in a conversation...
So I hope you get the idea...that "being trapped" is indeed necessary...for a purposeful life...
That's it...a purposeful life... And mind you...even our purpose of life "traps" us...
I guess the question is not whether we're trapped or not...but what do we do about it?
Are we going to "do nothing" ? Since the more we try to change things...the more we suffer. Apathy is the name of our friend. Detachment is her sister and Ignorance is bliss...
Are we going to "make do" with whatever that is available in our current trap? That is why we hear slogans like "I live only once, so I make the most out of it..."
Or...
Are we going to "change" our trap? By the way, the idea of "freedom" in most people's minds is not actually free. It just means moving to another trap...
Say we vote option three...which is the hardest of all (assuming that inertia effect is strong in each of us)...how on earth are we gonna do that?
Here is what I have found...
Always choose Life over Death...
Choose Light over Darkness...
Choose Faith over Logic...
Choose Wisdom over Ignorance...
Next question... How long must we do this?...
The answer lies hidden in the plain sight...
And you bet... I will always be trapped within my own world... as we all are...
The simplest idea can be the most complicated one...if we spend enough time to ponder about it...
