It’s scary when one realises his/her limitations when examined in the most honest way.
It’s human nature not to admit to defeat or shortcomings, to proclaim that we are capable of anything. And it is this thinking that has gotten humanity this far in development in several areas.
Yet we tend quickly cover our shortcomings, failing to realise that it is our shortcomings that can help us become stronger and better if we learn from it.
Admitting to that takes a lot of guts, and for some, a high risk or gamble. Today’s society has little tolerance for shortcomings and displaying that before everyone is somewhat like standing in the pathway of a speeding car.
Admitting is one. Facing it squarely and working on it is another. You can run, but you can’t hide.
On a separate note from the above, a thought of a world on a more humane and considerate note is only possible if everyone is willing to give a thought to others before themselves. Some give more than they receive and some simply don’t give a hoot for others. In this world, survival of the fittest is only the truth because we made it so. If we think otherwise, this phrase would have not exist and it will not be a truth.
To stand and fight for what you believe in may equate going against the flow of the hierarchical society with its stereotypical boundaries. Who came up with these boundaries? How did they become the rules of which we’ve to observe? It’s like asking the question “Who says fuck is a foul word? Didn’t someone invent the word and tag some obscene meaning to it to make it into the foul word it is today? Can we untag that meaning and remove our perception of the word?”
Have we all stopped asking all the whys in this world in an attempt to make this place more wholesome?
