utopia......

Utopia.... strange concept. Everything perfect in every aspect. No pain, or misery, or suffering, hardships, oppression, plight, misfortunes, sorrow........... u know the world before Pandora’s curiosity got the better of her... The thing I don’t understand...... hw can u survive without duality...I don’t think the human mind is capable of contemplating only one aspect of anything. Would Thomas More have been able to write his book if he hadn’t seen or could have recognized the other side of "bliss". Even Pandora opened that jar out of 'curiosity'.............. In a world where there's joy contentment and innocence everywhere........ where's the place for something like curiosity.......or a mind for that matter.....the way I see it..... even she got bored of it all. And in our case........ Evolution has taken care of that!!!

How do you fathom..or register any sense of joy or fulfillment without experiencing the absolute opposite?? The human nature is such that we tend to notice and remember the mishappenings and hardships that we bear better than our godsends and our inherent capacity to be able to survive these 'anti-facets' of our existence. we get so caught up in all that ...... that it becomes difficult to see the other side of the coin. And at that point imagination comes in place.... we stop coping and end up creating worlds within this world where we find solace, comfort and relief from our frustrations..... one minute we are sitting there with nothing in particular on our mind........... And the next minute there we are in Pandoraland!!!! Improved, more comforting and sometimes even more exciting'n'happier versions of our own realities. And there in that place we have no problems in focusing on the positive. But even these 'daydreams' aren't void of some inconsistencies or contradictions.... of course the fact that they are born out of our frustrations plays a major role in it..... We fight a battle of sorts with ourselves in our minds, play different scenarios ... and come out victorious in the end.

How do you value happiness without sorrow, or laughter without tears.........

In my mind if I manage to 'realise' the significance and the necessity of my duality......... by and by I’ll find utopia.......

Until then...... my mind....... is my utopia...

see there was hope still left in the jar.......
