Revolution and Extremism

History teaches us about the enslavement of Indians, African natives and other free people by Imperialistic forces. We were constantly been taught how imperialism affected socio-political, economic and cultural domains of once self pride nations and degraded them to mere 'colonized territories'. But only with a caution -

"He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you."

Trade-offs & Thrill

It's been a while, away from social media; and again on these platforms I am here, can't say for what - like ascetic, preaching or reclaiming what 'trade-off' I refused to entertain earlier. This time just trying to - try not to get bogged down for a little longer than before.

'trade - offs' to be made constantly for achieving what holds utmost priority in one's life. Once that is achieved, those 'trade-offs' matters so less, as if  it were some arbitrary desires - which can be shunned off (sometimes with temporary hiccups).  Successes give a kick,... a thrill. memories rush in of those - trade-offs, hiccups of suppression of momentary desires - and then self-satisfaction fills inside.

We all know, some might also experienced it at sometime, yet some refuse to accept!
