Remember my post about life being a quadratic equation? Well from few days my mind is going round and round finding solutions for one such complicated equation of my life.
Meanwhile it was mothers day yesterday and it made me think about my complicated but beautiful relationship with my mother. I have been the focus of her world for years now. She raised to me to be an independent person with enough freedom to create my own set of thoughts and beliefs. Often we don't agree, major reason being that we belong to different worlds and our perceptions are most times different if not opposite. I am a pure sagitarrian guarding my freedom at every occasion possible and she tries to put the free spirit I am into the frame of society. Our priorities mainly differs when it's about individual vs society. I can see her point too , since i do agree that certain rules are very much needed to bind and maintain a stability of sorts in the society. We are all social beings and societal approval is needed for a peaceful co existence. But does it guarantee inner peace ? If not then what's more important?
Coming to think of it , all our decisions are mostly directly proportional to either the importance we give to what we believe is right or what society upholds as right. We are often like pendulums dwindling between these two extremes trying to find our ground somewhere in the middle. Its a fact that we are entities of this whole and if we change, the society changes too. But this constant evolution is a very slow process. Therefore, trying to be the change we want to be in the transformation phase becomes the hardest part of being a part of the society.
