Thinking Spot

Life is getting tougher and fast in present times. Humans are faced with so many problems not just relating to day to day interpersonal relations but living in itself is a huge task now. Every one seems to be in rush. People are getting too much self focused. Humanity is at far. Every one is at war; war for self pleasure, self promotion, self security and nothing but self. People nowadays are not just grouped by colors and cast but wealth is playing such a big splitter. In other situations religions are utilised to spread hatred/split by misinterpreting the teachings. It has encompassed every one, every age group and every single relation; may it be blood or social/religious. However fact is that such self focused people attaining superlative qualities of every thing in life and considering others below average or illiterate are such a failure, that you would want to cry on their behalf,cause they even fail to see it. We are getting more and more successful in works like machines but a total failure in life and relations. Although we work to live and not live to work. We like every thing that's considered bad on social, moral, religious and ethical grounds i.e speak lies, talk rubbish, sexually corrupt and ethically weak people are the favourite group. Knowledge now is only gained and utilised to earn money. Do we really know what is it that we are running for? Do we really need to do all this? Why don't we feel anything while standing over others corpse? Are we just happy to be alive ? This type of questioning answering session with self is much needed for every one. This helps in not only making us better human beings but it distants us from the evil. It is called Catharsis "purification". The other advantage of this procedure is direction(Aim) in life and consideration of long term impacts of ones acts/words on other lives.

A thinking spot or area is a requirement for such catharsis, where one can stand next to ones own self and engage the battle between the good and the bad. Some one had once asked me whats the criteria of goodness and badness. I think it's very obvious; any act forbidden by religions, society ,cultures, inner conscious and bad considered activity in a particular race is classified as bad and vice versa. It's the baddness that's the culprit of hollowness of a society, creating mental stresses and diseases. Living like an untamed animal when free(weekends mostly) and a perfect machine when working is one of the gifts of present times. Religions are considered good as far as it doesn't stop from lust, lies and corruption, otherwise we are not religious. (Will talk on this some other time, too much gun powder for this one is stored.) It's always easy to blame others, is one of the slogans of present times. But for how long ? Lame excuses are limited to age! Therefore it's always a good practice to identify ones shortcomings and acknowledge mistakes. Some times it's just a sorry and a thank you that's all required to make our lives easy.

I am including a picture in this post just to give an idea of a thinking spot. I use it more often just to keep myself on track.
