The future is shaped by the present. The present cannot ignore the past. Past is history, meant only for reference. A better future can happen if the present learns from the mistakes of the past.
For all that a man does and does it well
And were such acts worthy of note and admiration
These shall find mention from amongst the men he performs and from others
A worthy recognition travels and travels well and fast
But if he proclaims his feat and declares it a success from atop a roof
What message were to be read into it, except that
Neither the act, nor the man, commanded merit
And that the man himself being sure of not being recognised
Blows his own trumpet
Why doth a man hunt for excuses to lay the blame upon?
Why not look within to find faults, aplenty they may be!
Every problem a human faces, causes thereof lie in his inabilities
A mind in conflict with all that walks, crawls and moves
Cannot be the mind that can be put to effective use
Sadly, realisations do not translate into actions
Time waits for none, yet for him who remains confused, life will always be at a standstill
Emptiness, hollowness, where thou lead us to, o Life! A blank stare, at times in the future with a reflection of the past; would the reflection help in any way now?
Thus I lost all those who seemed to be my friends
But thus I gained freedom from fallacy
It’s better off to be in the company of none
Than be with those who see you as an opportunity
Life is like an ocean, deep, savage and unexplored
It’s easier to swim alone, even if it be against the tide
It’s easier than, swimming holding hands of those who are themselves looking for a hand that will save
As has been famously said, man cameth alone, man hath to go alone
Why then seek those who drop tears as would a crocodile do
Ain’t I better off doing it for myself alone!
Expression of those thoughts that do not meet the expectation of the world at large get to be bracketed in the broader term of philosophy
