A MERE WORLD OF CONTRADICTIONS............

CONTRADICTIONS. A fairly big word from Oxford Dictionary. It also provides you with the satisfactory meaning. I first came across the word "contradiction" when I was in class 9 . Somewhere in history , in French Revolution. I was pretty curious to know what it meant . So I did what I would normally do . I looked up in the dictionary and it said - "deny the truth of a statement by saying or doing the opposite."

That's when it occurred to me. Most of the things that were going around me was QUITE contradictory. In fact , not quite , most of them. Half of the time , what I did was contradictory. Love was contradictory and so was hatred. People were contradictory and so were emotions and machines. I arrived at the conclusion -"World is nothing but a bundle of contradictions." ( Even this is a contradiction , right? Talking about contradictions in a contradictory tone?!)

Most of the parents say they don't mind what their children want to do later in their life. "Its their choice , after all and we are merely guiding them "-they say. But they do snub or scorn the idea if you want to become anything less than a doctor or engineer. If you mention anything about Arts , trust me , you're dead. (Not that my parents do the same , but still you know we are dealing with contradictions.A lot of them.) . Your friends say they won't hurt you anymore , but the next thing you may face is an angry outburst which would end up in your friend (or so they call themselves) saying you are nothing but a creep who finds pleasure in toying people around. (Wait..what?!).

We all are a bundle of contradictions , in one way or the other. You say one thing and end up doing the other. We may even give our "kasam se" tone but would do the opposite. and people bearing all this will only feel like giving you a GOOD KICK.

Don't let the contradictions take their toll upon you. Stay as what you ARE even if it means to break a few contradictions around us. (And this Itself is a contradiction.!!!!)
