How Much Is Too Much?

I recently saw a video on how humans only value something when it reaches the extreme and couldn't agree more to it. But Why? why it's considered Hurting only when one cries their eyes out? Why it's Anger only when things break? Why emotions value only when it's said out loud? All these made me wonder who really set this system up? 

One could be just silent but still be angry. One could be just smiling and still be grieving. It's also the same people who judge when it reaches those extremes, don't they? Being too fat, being too thin, being too loud, being too quiet and the list goes on.

And it made me realise people judge anyway. It's pretty simple to say ,"ignore judgements." But can we really? Somewhere it tickles the brain of a very fit person and she questions herself if she is too fat? And words cannot be just ignored for it reaches the deepest part of one's soul before they ponder over the fact on whether or not to ignore it. Witnessing my very good friend doubting on her very healthy fit body made me pause . How much is too much? Where do people even draw the line? No one really knows.

Let us think before we speak.Our little words can ring for days in one's ears.Let us judge a little less and let people live their life in their way for that has become a privilege in today's world.

Feminism

 Have you ever come across that day where you feel nothing but complete rage. That's one such day for me today. What's Feminism?  According to me it's fighting for those rights which was once robbed from women. A Feminist doesn't necessarily need to be just women. In this context it's the fight for the marginalised. Anyone can be and should be a Feminist.  But am tired of this world constantly misinterpreting this term. Recently came across a movie called "Aan Paavam pollathathu" that made no sense. The film totally misleads the society where still few people are trying to understand what Feminism is. I am neither with the female lead nor with the male lead of this film. Both had their own flaws.But what agitated me was the way everything was portrayed. The film constantly conveys that the female lead is stupid and is expected to behave a certain way just because she stays home. Since when an independent woman meant someone who smokes. Smoking is a bad hab...

Judge at first glance.

It doesn't take a second for me to judge when it comes to men. I recently was to take an auto ride but was very hesitant to get into one judging the way the auto anna appeared to be. To add up to my uncertainty that particular auto also had these weird red lights inside making it look creepy in the dark night. However that day it was the only auto available and I was to get into my hostel before the curfew time. With doubts clogged in my head and fear gripping my heart I got into it. Turned out he was a sweet guy,I don't know may be the fear was so evident on my face that he made sure I was comfortable by talking out random things casually. And that really made me feel at ease. Was the auto anna the problem here for having no clue and becoming the victim of my fear? No. Was I the problem to have doubted him ? Certainly no. What truly is the problem is that how society has taught us certain things the hard way. I did feel sad later recalling how I ended up suspecting an innocent...

Familiarity from the Unknown

 A day where I witnessed so many good souls.To begin with am not a very optimistic person.I often tend to stick with that one belief that people in general are bad and do not truly deserve our trust.But there was this day that broke all of that. It was few weeks back when I went to meet my sister and unfortunately I knew nothing about her place even which bus to board on.So right at the bus stand there was this young girl who helped me figure out which bus was it and helped me board into it.I couldn't even say thanks to her due to all the rush and chaos but was only able to wave her with gratefulness. Clueless me didn't even know when the place where I have to get down would arrive. Seeing my state there was this old lady that was near me who reassured me saying "Dont be scared ma it's the last stop,you can get down when everybody does" and that really helped me relax. Tracing back to the morning of the same day while I was walking to my class, a car quietly slowe...
