Definitions .....

The present world functions on definitions.
  • Characters of people - predefined
  • Handling any situation - predefined
  • My Behavior too - predefined
  • Way of life - predefined
All these definitions are not taught by someone but I make them myself in a period of time since I started learning by perception of the world or adopting some definitions from others definitions. My thinking for my life then is always based on these definitions. I always stick to these and stop myself from growing or learning.

As I come into adulthood, I start thinking that I know most of the things, which is to say (unconsciously) "I have defined all the things that concern me" and then my mechanical life starts. It can be successful, but is a dead one. I just have the same routine for years and years and my definitions never change, or the better way to put "I don't let my definitions change". I perceive people as per my definitions about them, I always listen to them from something. I always think that I know what the opposite person has to say. And that may be the case, but then I am not listening to that person but to my own definition about the person, from past.

My growth stops as I have closed myself to all the knowledge that could have been gained from the nature, world, universe.

The DEFINITIONS are the Prison BARS that I live with and yet am not aware of. Again the work of EGO appears! It just keeps this prison invisible from me and I feel I am living an Ideal Life!

I know where my Life is going and I am doing just great !!! I am Living my life Fully.

But AM I REALLY ?

Many people die at 20 and are buried at 80. This thought makes me feel like killing all the definitions and motivate to think outta box.
