The World Is Your Oyster.

             One of my class mates passed away last month and it left me shaken and dumbstruck. It seemed absurd and unbelievable, and I was stunned by how fragile and uncertain life is. We plan for days, months and years ahead, but what do we even know? 

             I believe that each of us here, have a pre-determined purpose of existence, something that is waiting for us- Our Destiny. Our dreams at night, just waiting to be brought to life. Those few days spent in shock changed my complete line of thinking. And the only question I was left with was, what are we waiting for? When will it be the right time? Will it ever? We look for excuses, reasons for delaying our destiny.
             
         I don’t know why we humans are so obsessed with making rules about everything, and this is the reason, people spend their whole life devoid of their true calling. Boundaries of culture and expectations of the social order have baffled our thinking, making life a drag for many. It’s rightly said...

When they come for your dreams.

They don’t carry swords or stakes,

Pitchforks or pistols.

Instead they will come,

 Wearing your grandmothers pearls,

Your pastors smile,

And the eyes of your exes newborn daughter.

                I wonder what the future might hold, once we get rid of our inhibitions and let our thoughts soar. When we deviate from the rules. When we rebel, look society in the eye and say, ‘I understand who you want me to be, but I’m going to show you who I actually am.’ We all have locked inside a universe; we just need to gather the courage to explore it. Use your ambition and intuition to fulfill your inner mission. Pursue your destiny, run with your dreams and follow your passions. Put your undivided attention on self growth. Possibility is everywhere. 

         
           Some people live in cages with bars built from their own fears and doubts. Some people live in cages with bars built from other people’s fears and doubts; their parents, friends, families. Some people live in cages built from the choices others made for them, the circumstances other people imposed on them. And some people, very few of us, break free. The time is here, the time is now. You can do anything you want to. Go execute, go conquer. The World Is Your Oyster.
