vector introspection...

Blogs are little difficult places to write out every possible thought arriving in the cerebral terrain. Blogging is not same as writing in a personal diary, where the content belongs exclusively to the writer and his/her carte-blanche friends and family. Blogs are wide open to the curious (internet) explorer world on the other end of optical fiber, which makes it impossible to write down everything that once struck writer’s mind. Also usually a person tries to put a little extra intellect (collected from here and there) when he/she is writing in the blog, because they know that one day or the other it is going to be read by someone and that’s the only opportunity they’ve got to be understood.

At the frequent psychological tides and ebbs of human life every person needs to believe in himself. He needs to find things around his existence which inspire him and bring back his energies. Course of human life is analogous to the volatile sensex which goes bullish when becoming strong and bearish when weakening. If a person is progressing in his life, he will encounter more difficulties and once down for a while, will rise back to higher peaks. On the other hand bearish life goes down, comes back to lesser peak and subsequently goes down to lower depth. A person needs to continuously monitor the course of life and rapidly change its definitions.

Almost every person who has a little brain and who takes bath every morning gets ideas at one point of time or the other. But there are very few people who walk with those ideas, cultivate their roots with those ideas. The reason is simple – one has to walk absolutely alone with his ideas. One has to win his fears and tell the traditions and society to go to hell. Behind every such rarity of human existence, there are rules, traditions, conventions, societies whereas in front of this man there is open road still unexplored.

Most of the times, a person spends significant part of his life struggling with himself. He keeps fighting his own divided identities and becomes his own enemy. Only thing that can bring him to senses is a little hope.

Well, most of the times, problem is not where the symptoms are. Because today we have loads of entangled strings attached with our existence. And we cannot cure the problem by attenuating its effects. Introspection is the remedy for the malady. But introspection alone cannot help, because many a time introspection turns into self-criticism or narcissism. Need is of ‘vector introspection’ which (like mathematical vector) has magnitude as well as direction!

Duh! There is another saying by the way: those who can – do and those who can’t - write! ;)…
