Reason


As I walked down the endpoint hill drenched in sweat, I see a sparrow bringing down a wriggling worm to its death in fury putting to torture as a part of the prey predator completing the cycle of hunger. The worm gave away in no time and left it’s flesh and blood for the sparrow to feed upon. The sparrow now flies away as it notices me nearer abandoning its hard earned food for it’s own life and spirit. I looked at the civilization from the hill. As these mere living forms fed, mated and struggled to survive; man made bows and arrows to tame the world, made BMWs and Benzs from class C to E and made the world the world a very big place to live in and then made telecommunications to make it smaller again. Cut trees and started the Global Warming campaign to save earth for its children tomorrow. Every bad act results in an inconspicuous vicious cycle that inevitably results in something bad unless intervened upon.

I frequently lose my thoughts to understand the meaning and purpose of things imagining a beautiful destination, a beautiful answer but mindlessly wandering through the streets without knowing directions. The time spent on such an adventure in all our lives have innumerate examples each of us constantly ending up somewhere that we want to believe is our destiny or reach there and then accept it as our destiny or nowhere NOWhere questioning destiny and still wandering hoping to find light at the end of the tunnel.

Through all of mankind’s survival, the thought to reason I feel has been the most significant change that altered the very essence of survival and progress we made across our existence. There is something in the evolution of the human brain that we have developed to understand, logically reason and prioritize a particular fact or statement. Tagging a reason to any interpretation of the many from the most complicated human brain validates it over its counterparts. Eason is all we look out for. Why? Reason again!

We find those reasons in different things, every one of us in different objects, persons in love and other abstract emotions and in passion. Irrespective of a possibility that this all could be a meaningless existence we constantly endure pain, suffering and seek the ‘Pavlonian’ pleasure consciously or subconsciously in search of the purpose in our lives for reasons many.

How does it happen that all life you believe in something or someone and suddenly it all crashes into abyss like an ambitious wave shattered as it dives into its own waters only to be embraced gently as it returns again. Is it that a person acts superior to make up for his inferiority complex or is it just that he is superior. Does somebody say something to mean it or acts like to mean it or because it sounds best in a given situation or may be for no reason at all only to be interpreted, analyzed and talked about by people who are themselves so lost and confused.

To me, we are desperate to find patterns cramming up our Anatomy, Physiology and Medicine ultimately trading it in an attempt to fulfill another man’s need in an existence wanting to mean something to somebody in life or after death perhaps only to return again.

On a very broad perspective we see that life isn’t in its whole in our hands despite our best efforts and most serious thoughts from, to whom we were born to whom we meet and to where and when we meet our awaiting death. The best I understand we can do is to accept things as they are and to make the best out of life in being a good friend to a friend, a good son to a father and a father to your son, a husband to a wife and a master of yourself all as an ‘expression of HappYness’ to make tomorrow, a ‘better’ tomorrow.
