Create Nurture and Destroy, that’s what is in God’s hands. I was
walking alone along the coast of Mumbai on Marine Drive and this thought
crossed my mind. They call it the queen’s neckless….for which a lot was
destroyed. Anyways...I was walking along the harbor and just letting the wind
blow my face. I think even for Mumbai this is the only place they get fresh air…I
was there to get some fresh perspective. I was troubled by the problem of free will.
Was I walking out of my free will or was I walking because I was made to? I
felt good and refreshed alright but I could just sit and enjoy the same
feeling. Life always poses a choice. But are those really choices or just
another way to signal that its not in your control. One has to decide the consequence
one is ok with, and go ahead with the choice. But then the intermediate choices
mixed up with situations can deter one from the consequences expected.
Life is too complex for just one choice to decide on the consequence. It’s
the small choices that count.
One has to decide every day and every moment. Funny thing is, if one
needs to change the result, one can just deter on one small choice….the larger
picture changes. I come back to free again. Where there is a will there is a
way. But is will an illusion? Is it just as one says..a variable in the
equation of situations that one creates or get created…. God Creates, Nurthures
and Destroys…situations, that’s it.

Insightful.....Will & Choices!!!!! None of them you own....Yet Volition is not owned & choices r deceptive...We outa feel ....We own them.....FALLACY!!!!!
Yes, its strange how a non-linear array of smaller things culminates to large differences in a later stage - The Butterfly effect. And its insane to think that the flutter of a distant butterfly causes the winds to soar, and a pin head at a hilltop rolls down this valley or that.
Life's too complex that ways, but it should be about managing a balance. Balance is what decides between hope and despair.
Thanks Suttu for such nice lines...
