Today I got an award. And a lesson is taught.
Consilience; majorly a phenomenon of integrating laws from two different scopes, but in everyday life that is what a person goes through every day. You're a complete subject in yourself, a philosophy rare and unique from the other. And being linked with a number of such audacious someone else, we have to stumble our way till the end of the day.
When you want to make something, do it by every will. Walk out in the scorching sun and get a little-burnt red. Try and climb out of that window which has been kept shut since long. You say you're scared of heights? Take one more step up the stairs and win over the fear. You don't have to list down the ingredients and brainstorm a plan. Just take some time out for yourself and sit by the beach. Get your hands dirty in the wet sand and construct a structure. It could be anything perfect or just a messy flaw-filled shape. Then chose a color and paint it fine, give it a stroke here and there, that's your personal delight. And you'll see, even if you can't specify the invention with a name, you'll still be happy with what you've made.
But that won't ever be this easy. The beach will have a number of people stampeding over your vision. The wet sand will mostly fall off and won't shape into the desired structure. For the final touches, you might not even find the right color. To resurrect the ambition and depress the hurdles, one must cross the line. Face the sting shot, let time be the healer and move towards the next. That's the bitter reality and the only subtle fact. Here surrounded by the negativity, you gotta empathize with none other but yourself. Diminish all the sympathy and rise within your true self.
Because what you have to really make today, is yourself. The pristine, the magnificent, the only you. Loss is in the extremist of its form when amongst all the mess, you lose you. So before anything else, make you- yours.
PS: Today I got an award, the award of being laughed at...
