Intrinsically Fragile

Whenever I see a small kid, then more than his cuteness, tenderness, and innocence, I see possibilities in him of what he can become tomorrow...he has his whole life ahead...what can he do with that life. And as much as it makes me happy, it also frightens me. After all, the future of the world depends on these small kids.

That little, soft baby, who is cozied up in his bed right now, after growing up, he can become an agent of destruction or a symbol of peace. They maintain the eternal delicate balance between chaos and order in this world.

Life is suffering..it is an integral truth of life. Nobody can deny this. It's the truth. This is written in scriptures of all religions as well.

• In Buddhism, the meaning of Nirvana is to get over suffering.
• Christians illustrate suffering through the cross.
• The jews' sorrow over the suffering subjected to them for years.
• In Islam, the Quran explains multiple times about suffering.

Human beings are intrinsically fragile

Human beings are intrinsically fragile. We can be broken. Physically and emotionally too. Against all our choices in life, we have to lose our loved ones. We have to lose ourselves too.

We take birth with a punishment of death

You may be very beautiful or may have a very charming face, but with time, it's all lost. It is said that we all are born with a death sentence. We take birth with a punishment of death. Even if we don't commit any crime, we still will eventually die. What can be a bigger injustice than this in our life?

How more brutal the so-called beautiful nature could be. People usually perceive nature as a beautiful wallpaper or a painting but sometimes the same mother nature is hell-bent on our destruction. Some people spend their whole lives surrounded by problems that are out of their control. And there are very few people who at any given time are not struggling with at least one serious problem, especially when you include their family in the equation.

And the truth is that human beings are so highly ambitious compared to other animals that getting hurt is our inherent nature. Italian poet Cesare Pavese has said it in clear words that

"Nobody lacks a good reason for suicide."

I believe that we all have our reasons to destroy the world and we are capable too. We all have a joker buried up inside us. I think every person is capable of committing monstrous acts. But real monsters are very few people and usually, those who after being broken completely in life, after being fully crushed by life, reach one of these two conclusions.

1. It is better not to be at all.
2. Perhaps it would be even better if there is no being at all.

Why only me, perhaps it would be even better if there is none. For any human being, these two are very dangerous conclusions of life. This is no joke. People who come to the first conclusion, they are flirting with suicide. They rely on their own death to get rid of their suffering and those who reach the second conclusion are even more dangerous. Far worse something truly monstrous they are toying genocide.

They are filled with feelings of revenge everyone is their enemy and they want to kill everyone. They enjoy the destruction of everything. These are the people who cut their own faces for an artificial smile and such people only become tyrannical dictators, rapists, serial-killers, and in other words...psychopaths. you will find the scariest monstrosity in these people.

Their own existence does not justify humanity for them. In fact, in some cases, after their heinous crimes, they kill themselves only to show their hatred for life, to demonstrate the purity of their commitment to annihilation. They are walking dead, a pure agent of chaos.

Then the question arises, why are we not like them? Why didn't we let those physical and emotional traumas of our life to manifest itself into something horrific? Why are we still suffering pain in our lives? And there are two reasons for this too.

First. suffering makes us strong. You will not deny the fact that whatever problems you went through in the past, after going through them, after struggling with them, you feel stronger to live the life ahead. In Nitzsche's words...

"that which does not kill me makes me stronger."

A human being is human becoming. It is a process, not a state. With time, you learn, adapt and change too and the second reason, which is the most important too is that there is a meaning to our suffering.

Somehow, our suffering is not just suffering when we find meaning in it. Means in however bad the situation you are in, if you think about the person who needs your love most, then you will get the power to face hell too.

If you genuinely believe in your work, then even if no one gives importance to it, you would still go on doing it and actually due to not having meaning in life, after losing all reasons to live, people start showing psychopathic tendencies and that's why more than finding pleasure and power in life, we need to find meaning in our lives. Because if we fail to do so, it could be catastrophic.
