Seeking Life

Ok, I’m gonna get it out, right at the beginning -   “YOU…….yes, YOU…. don’t know shiiiiiiiyyt” You think you do, but actually….. ”YOU DON’T” . And neither do I.   None of us do.   Now let me back these harsh words up, a little . So, over this weekend a few of my relatives visited us. They were mostly old people, may be in their 80’s or something.   Unlike most of us who find old people to be annoying, I actually find myself being interested in them. I mean these people: lived in a time when Mobile phones and Instagram weren’t a thing, they barely knew anything about Space, in fact there were no Fans, AC’s, Televisions and Computers, in their life.   thousands of people were still dying of famines, plagues and wars.   a lot them were being killed by Tuberculosis and Small pox.   “I mean can you imagine that, we don’t even get vaccinated for TB anymore.” I sat there observing them, as th...

                       "Lyyyyfff is hard” * period* This is something that all, so called “Grown ups” around me, have said to me since I was a wee girl.  (Noooo, I’m not Scottish, I just looooove how it sounds!) Growing up in an Indian culture, I was always surrrrrrounded with people who preached, “LIFE IS HARD” .  And because life is hard, we kids were taught to do everything hard - Study hard and work hard, after all life is hard.     I remember being 17 and curios about life, about what life is like when you are an adult.  So I asked my Grandma, what she thought about “LIFE” .     (Yea, I wasn’t very smart back then, I mean what answer was I expecting from a woman who had lived through wars and plagues and famines!)  She said,   (looking up at the sky, cause she is dramatic as ffff)   “Laaeeef is a lot of pain and suffering until you ...

So, on an average a human sleeps for one-third part of their day.   (that’s only if you sleep 8 hours, not if you are a freaking - Wizard who can pull through life on 4-5 hours of sleep. I mean seriously how do people do it?)  Which means you are sleeping, or lying partially dead for one-third part of your life.    So, say you live for 75 years, then YOU my dear are sleeping for 25 years out of those 75 years or for 9,125 days approximately.   (No, I am not a Math god, I googled that ish.) Naaaooow, you can’t compromise much on the sleep cause you know ***(read in the geekiest tone possible)***   "OUR BIOLOGY POSES REASONABLE RESTRICTIONS ON US”.   The body needs what it needs. But what about the time when you are up and awake.  Are you really awake?  Are conscious of your subconscious?  In other words, are you connected to your inner self or your life force?
