Be Naked!

Right now, after I quit my job I was doing with an MNC, I feel my life is back to me to live. Iam ashamed to say that this has happened after probably my early childhood. Thats roughly 35 odd years. Imagine how it feels to be imprisoned for such a long time? Nelson Mandela comes to my mind for one of the longest prison stints. But mine is not any less...
Yours may not be any less too..

Why the world does not let you be what you are?

Partially, I feel we are responsible for this misery. While 50% is dependent on your parents who decide your fate, the remaining is your own. You hang on..and on working for X and Y thinking that that is your life. And then you start getting this nagging feeling that there is nothing going on much in life. And then these talks of work-life balance....I feel like laughing. You work or you live I feel. It cannot be both. You can do only one thing at a time. You cannot work and also have a life. Thats something that takes a while to understand. Many don't until the time comes when they can no longer work. Working for some one robs your life from you.

Whatever you do after work does not have your heart in it.

When you do something (I am not calling this work) on your own , whatever it may be, you taste freedom. Freedom is beautiful. It cannot be compared to the misery you undergo in the name of work. Freedom makes you grounded. You no longer fly on this and that. Fly on someone's triggers. You are on the ground, you feel the living.

Do something which you have thought is of importance. If you dont have such thoughts start to question you. You must be happy already in a golden cage thinking that the end of the universe is the bars in the cage and they are not bars but the gold you have always wanted to have.

You create the world. When you do that, you live your life. Every one has the full potential to create what they think. Try to get there at least. Dont be a piece of some one else's thought no matter what it holds for you.

When you are naked you see the truth!
