Window Panes
OKay-lets say i learn 'some' things pretty late,rather 'realize' things bit too slowly.I am referring to judging others and being the best possible cynic.yesterday i tried to see the world through a cynic/pessimists eyes. Boy was it so different.I realize there are so many reactions that i could come up with.its just crazy. but now it somehow makes more sense-Reactions lead you to where you are today!DAMN.Isnt that scary?It is-cause i rationalize with every thing and add sense to the madness.Where does that leave you and i?
A cynic would say- The circle is not perfectly round.
Pessimist: It doesnt even look like a circle!
I would say: Its a perfect circle. (shud i *sigh?* here...)
Results: The Cynic would be asked to proove his/her point, and no matter what the outcome of the 'circle' is ,he/she would have prooved his skill sets/lack of fear/proactivity-gist of it:The Individual would have made a point.
The Pessimist: this is tricky-he would draw a circle or make someone else draw it and make others say 'yeah, maybe this looks better'-boom!: result-be a pessimist and go far in life.( refer to ironies of life,paragraph *** Verse :Ashas' reiterations)
The likes of Me:am speechless-i dont even know,i didnt create dissent.I am happy with what i see.So what,i still see the circle as round enough!Arrrrrrrgh. I cant even look at the positive side of things?
Yup so thats what it looks like,the sight through the window pane,we see it as cloudy,bright,stormy,windy.Depending on which you grab your raincoat,summer cap or parka.
And its all through the same damn window pane.So What should i wear?

A bib. No matter how long or short you contempate the idiosycracies of your personality, one thing is for sure, at some point you will get hungry.

The confessions of a pessimist!!!
You know what you said is totally right but what you forget is that we keep seeing life in a set of dimensions and assume that everybody else lives in the same dimensions too.
But that’s not the case, what they see is what they want to see and what they would like to see. However, the truth is that the beauty of the circle is not diminished by the fact of how people perceive it.... That circle remains, the symmetry is maintained.
We talk about the world...Mark Twain, the guy who gave us such classics about life was one of the biggest cynics and criticizer of his time. Shakespear was the vainest person of his age(the guy who wrote so much about love and emotions).
What I want to point out is that all that apart, they are where they are, they reached where they had to, because they moved for a fraction of their life into the dimensionless space.
Geometry is mathematical and methodical, so is life at times but not always. It gets to be mathematical where it wants to be and methodical where it wants that. Sometimes this can be both.... sometimes mutually exclusive.
The discerning being knows this hurdle race and plays it. Nobody can win; all you can do is play your best. For “when the great scorer comes to mark against you name, he marks not whether you won or lost but how you played the game”. Easier said than done…and here lies the Kundlini Crisis.
