POV!

How was the weekend?

For us, it was a long weekend because of Diwali. But as always, the weekends rushes by at the speed of light and the weekdays drags itself at the speed of a snail.

We’re back again in our respective cubicles, doing our respective work, savoring our respective favorite coffee in our respective mugs 😀

So, as we’re talking so much about PERSPECTIVE, let’s talk in details.

We all have our respective perspective of Life 😉 As Dirish says, “We all have our own A take on Life” and that’s true!

Since last many a weeks, I have been learning things. Things related to perspective by talking to more people, by listening to them, by trying to see from their POV. It is helping a bit but it’s difficult to think from their perspective.

I think all my life(which is mere 26 years), I have been trying to look at everything from my perspective and never think about the other person. It may be because of several reasons. No one pointed this out to me earlier, hence I didn’t realize it. Now as I am being questioned, I am feeling cornered that how can anything be wrong when the perspective is correct?

POVs are a great way to express our thoughts and again a great way to get out of any situation, but when we realize that our perspective has been defeated and that other’s perspective is more purposeful and right, then what do we do?

That’s what I am going through. I am not saying, I am wrong or I am right. I am just saying that I don’t see my POV as the BEST anymore and that I have to consider other’s perspective too.

There’s a quote by someone very talented, “We judge those whom we don’t know, and if we don’t know them, why do we have to judge them?” 😀

I don’t know why there is so much of confusion within me nowadays that it’s started to make kind of a mess. I sincerely feel like the above quote by Mr. Lennon ❤ I love that guy and his words and his songs. This quote, in particular, is close to me. I feel like a loser and God, all at the same time 😀

Hope I can sort things out sooner rather than later. I think traveling will help me and I am doing that now on a regular basis. If any of my friends are available then with them or else I love to travel solo too ❤ What are your preferences while traveling? You like to pack everything with you or you keep it light? Do you call yourself a traveler or a tourist?

P.S.: I was reading one of the previous blogs of mine called REINS and I loved it. I loved the flow with which it was written. The connection, the beauty. Now when I sit to write, it’s all confusion and haphazard and not pleasing. Recently I am listening to an old favorite song Bubblin by Blue.

Reins.

Aggression. Wildness. Control. Reins.

It’s all related to one another. We all want to have control over our lives, over the things that makes us happy, over our relationships, over how others make us feel. We want the reins of peace in our own hands. Always.

Most of our lives we wander in search of the reins but seldom find. We invest(read: waste) time for those reins. We give our sweat but fail. We may not accept but we are not always in control of our lives.

Why? Because there are many other factors that affect our lives. There’s job. There’re other independent thinking individuals. There’s ambition. There’s desire to reach those ambitions. As we can’t control those, not even for a single day, we think we can never control our lives.

There’s a difference, though. I will feel my life is not in my control when I am doing things I care less about. Why? Because at the moment, I am not interested in it. I say so because if I was interested, it would have been in my control. As I have no interest, I don’t understand it, it eludes me. It confuses me. It makes me feel inferior. It makes me feel recessive.

I want the control back. I want to hold the reins. But how? By developing interest, by showing eagerness, by trying to understand, I can gain control slowly. This is not rocket science. This is a simple art of understanding.

We don’t have to make things difficult. We have to find the easiest of solutions. It’s there either inside or outside of us. We just have to tune to it & a smile will find its way back home on your lips.

I crave for my smiles. But then my smiles are dependent on yours. So, being selfish, I have to make you smile, to smile myself.

P.S.: Today’s song pick is My song knows what you did in the dark of Fallout boy 🙂 Three cheers for holding our life’s reins. Happy weekend!
