As I lie on my couch looking at a fly zooming its way in and out of my window, I wonder to myself...how our lives are any different than hers.’ Every morning we zoom in and out of our mundane routines, with a hope that today will be a better day than yesterday.
Whether its that worker from the slum or the building watchman. They hope and think, whether they'll be able to earn more money today and save it for themselves and their family and give them a better lifestyle.
Or the maid-who thinks and hopes, that her husband would not drink and come today. Who instead of beating her might love her that one day.
Or a banker – who thinks how much nos. Will he do for the day.
Or an actor – who sets out thinking he’ll get his big break/ role of a lifetime today.
Each individual, with his own set of dreams and ambitions sets out on their day!
It’s interesting to observe, how each individuals’ dreams are different than each others.’ While some think of survival, the others think of fame and glory!
Is life really that complex or is it our desires which make it complex and confusing! I don’t know coz what I don’t understand is if we’ll not have these desires what’ll keep us going! What’ll keep us fighting for ‘survival of the fittest’ tag and what’ll keep us “going” in this mad race of life!
We all need a reason to live, and mine sure has become- to understand and flow with this complexity!
