Many Faced God

We are what we make of ourselves. Parents, teachers and friends only shuffle things a little bit. Although we may blame the situations and events and they might have had an impact, but never so heavy to be shouldered upon. It’s us who roll on states and circumstances, reacting our heart out while some don’t, since they believe in a poker face conduct. Cool enough, it gets them smoothly through worst of situations. There have been two distinct phrases in the market lately. The most visible being “Fake it till you make it” and the more popular being “Be what you are”. Self explanatory they might be, but fail safe they aren't.

 I wonder why. Watching motivational tutorials and TEDex sessions, we groom ourselves into what the world would want. But life is not just one way of living. It wants a mix of personalities. Every being has a hidden dual personality disorder or so it should be. Knowing the right proportion and timing to put down your ingredients for life is the artistic skill. Funny that I’d mention, people re-enact conversations in their mind so as to find alternative dialogues in order ensure better endings. No one’s perfect, I’ve heard. For every breath you let out, there is possibly a better way you could have done that. And still we strive for perfection, trying to blend our ways in the best of crowd,  searching for the one flawless other half of ours.
