Life is as simple as one makes it.

Life is simple. It really is. Living is not as complicated as people might think it is. Everthing is binary. You're either happy or sad, polite or rude, kind or cruel, bad or good. It's always one or the other. The combinations of these extremities makes life what it is. Life is a combination of infinite number of variables like these alternating between the extremities. In these infinite variables we look for happiness. Happiness, I think, is overrated. Voltaire once said, "The most important decision you will ever make is to be in a good mood". This is the key to happiness. One could go about their entire life in the pursuit of happiness and never find the trace of it. On the other hand just pretend to be happy and you'll eventually be happy.
One of the ways to make yourself happy is by trying and living life in the simplest way possible. Complexity always tends to make things complex. Putting a complex number in a polynomial equation always results in an equation that is a bit more complex. I always say, "Life is as simple as one makes it". If you want to talk to someone, text them or even call them. If you like someone's company, tell them, be with them. If you don't like someone's company tell them that as well. Be straight forward. If you like someone tell them. If you want to stay, stay. If you want to leave, leave. Lets just leave the politics to the politicians and the schemes and plots in the game of chess. You bring them out in the real world in your everyday life, it gets pretty bad pretty quick. I would rather have a person say, "I dont like you being around" to my face than to every other person he meets except me. Be empathetic, but know its easier to replant a sapling than a decade old tree.
We tend to stress ourselves, over imaginary scenarios. "We drink the poison our minds pour for us and wonder why we feel so sick" said Atticus. We think more about how other people would react to our actions and end up not being ourselves and henceforth making things more complicated than they actually are.
We don't really know what we're here for, we only get this life once, might as well live it simply and make the best of it.

Death Dessert theory.

Hello... Readers( which apparently are not many). I have come up with a new theory. I havent thought of a name yet. Maybe i will just tell you the name at the end after explaining to you what it is. On second thought i have named it... "Death Dessert". Cool huh? Explanation. Well, most things that are rare, are expensive. And most things that are expensive are most valuable to us. So rare things are valuable. And most people save the sweetest bite for the end. In other words, most people like their dessert at the end of the meal. Taking these two points under consideration, think about death. Death is rare. It only occurs once in everyone's life. And it comes at the end. After everything. It is the sweetest bite. The dessert of life. Maybe death isnt a bad thing afterall. Maybe death is a bite of sweet dessert after all the sour battering given to you by your whole life. Maybe death is the eternal goal. Who knows? Maybe the dead people cant come back or maybe they d...

Determination.

"Its a shield, if you like, a sword if you want it to be and emptiness if you don't recognize it." Hello Readers. DETERMINATION Its such an overrated, overused word and often misinterpreted as "hippy talk". The word "Determination" is what every English speaking person knows the meaning of and yet doesn't actually know the application of it. I know that in some or any sort of minimalist crisis, its the last thing i think of; But what we all fail to understand, is that determination is one of the greatest human emotions ever. Its not an emotion as such, but the inner drive and motivation all these words essentially describe determination. It was determination that helped Adolf Hitler commit the greatest genocide in the history of the world. It was Determination that helped Oskar Schindler save hundreds of lives. It was determination that the Manhattan Project resulted in a weapon destructive enough to destroy the entire planet in one go.It was...

Writing! How easy it all seems.

"Either Do something worth writing or Write something worth Reading", they say. Hello Readers! I was just thinking about how people write, and it just came to my knowledge that about half the students of my class write, you know poems and songs and such. Its just the expression of creativity and talent. Then I started thinking about as to what makes what they write, good enough for us to want to read it? I stumbled on the answer, while watching the play written by Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamr. A beautiful play to be honest, i loved it, you must check it out, the name is "Sadqay Tumhare". There's a simple answer to the aforementioned question, "You can immediately recognize a good piece of art if it messes with your head." If something you read, messes with you normal mental stability, I mean, if something grabs on and doesn't let go for about at least a week, and then you are tempted to read it again, and when you do it, it climbs on again that is...
