The Lost Self

When did we become so uptight, where all that we do is following laid down rules, when did we stop being spontaneous, where our life is just a routine that we must follow, when did we stop having fun, where all that we now do is to earn a living. What happened to us, what happened to that child we used to be, that us which do not care much about the world, that us that just wants to play all the time, that us that has a sweet and energetic spirit, that us that do not care much about materials, that us that is not afraid to let it hair down, that us that is okay with getting dirty just as long as it is having fun, that us that our soul crave for. What happened to us?

The Eyes do not Cry

The eyes is said to be 'the mirror to the soul', it has been seen as that which betrays our outward self as it tells what we really feel deep inside. The eyes do not lie, as it is almost expressionless. Most times, we cannot control it expression by our outward self, it expression can only be controlled from the inside, by the truth from inside. We can use other parts of the body to lie, we can smile even though we are sad inside, we can gesticulate to show interest in topics we are not interested in, yes, we can indeed use all the parts of our body to lie except the eyes, the eyes never lie, it will never help you play your tricks. The eyes is indeed a mirror to our soul.

Grouping: The Complex Phenomenon

Grouping; a set of associated people acting together. Is this what we really want? Where we go where it goes, where we eat what it eats, where we wear what it wears. Is that what we truly want? To be part of group?

Group promises to help us meet all our needs: it promises to protect us, that with it, no one can harm us, that with it, we are safe. Group promises to give us an affiliation, that with it, we have an identity we may be associated as a member of it, that we may have specific descriptions that are accruing from it.

Death By Lonliness

Sometimes, or most times, we do not know that which will take our life, but we are indeed certain that someday, at a particular time and place, we will depart from that which we call reality, we will depart from that which we have always known as our life.

Life could be a lot of joy, this joy mostly come from love, friendship, relationship or companionship; but what if you do not have all this? What if that which is meant to give you joy is lost and you cannot find another? Do you become a lost course then?

Striving Perfection

Perfection: the state of completeness and total flawlessness, the state in which it all ends, that state when striving for more is no more.

Perfection, is it what we all seek? Where we do not have to strive to impress anyone because we have become perfect, where we are no more in competition with others? Is this what we really want; is perfection what we truly want?

The nature that protects us

Nature is beautiful, nature is kind, nature is abundant, nature grows with ease, nature works with ease, nature is protective, nature is nature.

There is something about nature that is just so beautiful, and it is not just about it aesthetic view, but it many other beauties. It beauties, when fully seen in it different forms truly touches the heart.

The kindness of nature cannot be fully emphasized, it provides us with what we need for our survival;

The Chains We Carry

Chains; which are series of connected links made of metals; explains the human life. The moment we were conceived by the fusion of gametes to form a new organism is the exact time we start our series of connected links, during our stay in the womb, our series of connected links goes from simple to complex.

Developing germ layers, the genetic codes of the father are some of the series of connected links we develop that will further expand into more connected link after our birth to planet earth.

Covered but Exposed

As a little child, we believe that when we cover our eyes and face, then nobody can see us, we do it when we are playing hide and seek, we do it when we think their is a monster in our room, and yes we do it when we do something really bad, hoping that somehow, it will magically go away.

As we grow old, some of us believe that we have gotten rid of this behaviour and have moved on; but no, we do not really get rid of it, the behaviour simple matures
