Right and Wrong

Image
   What is right and what is wrong ? Are these terms relative or are they absolute? Did someone define these or is that decision left to the individual? It is very much possible that what might be wrong for one person might be right for another.  How then does one resolve these issue? Does the issue really need resolving ?  If there is no bad then does the concept of good even make sense anymore ? If there is no villain then the concept of hero becomes obsolete. In life many times one will come across a fork in the road where they have to take a decision, the decision that will decide whether they are good or bad. But whatever decision one takes there is a path that lies ahead. And without seeing that path no one will know whether took the right/ wrong decision. So take that leap of faith and do what your heart tells you to do, because if you ask your mind what to do it will give you 100 reasons for doing one thing and another 100 reasons for not doing it. Whatever y...

The moon and its absence

Don't be so sad, he kept thinking to to himself. The feeling will go away soon. Or maybe it is here to stay.  He was tired.  He was exhausted. He looked out at the expanse of the sky and the only thing staring back at him in all its brightness was the moon. "Who are you?" he asked as if expecting a reply from the gigantic body. And then he heard the reply," I am the light you seek in the darkness" "You aren't living, how can you speak?" He said as he checked if the Moon showed any signs of movement .  "But I am speaking and you are listening aren't you? " "You are just a figment of my imagination." He said to the Moon. "Well it's pretty arrogant of you to think that the Moon is your imagination. " came the reply. " I will close my eyes and this will all end" he said as he closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes.       It was gone the Moon and the Voice.  But in its ABsence he felt a longing for the p...

Waiting for it to end

Waiting for this to end  I have been postponing this for so long. It's been so long that I have even forgot why I began in the first place.  Did it give me happiness or was it a form of expression.  Isn't the ability to express yourself an expression of  happiness?  Or is it the ability to be understood by the one we are explaining to a criterion to be happy. Are you able to understand what I am saying ?  Have I been able to make myself happy because I am can express it. No wait , have I been able to make myself happy because you can understand it . Yes that's putting it better . So are we trying to be happy for ourselves or are we trying to be happy because that's supposed to be a good thing ?  How would we know if it's a good or bad thing. Sorrow and sadness are in their own right , appropriate when mourning loss of someone or something. So caught up in this dichotomy of good or bad. Maybe I'll just keep posting my thoughts here waiting f...
