The beauty of being human, now and at any point in time, is that we are never just one thing. We are many things, and we are all of it at once. We may be less or more of one thing and we become defined by the things we nurture within ourselves.
It is crucial that we make the right choices and no one can teach us to do this than ourselves. It makes no sense to be willing to try new things and make mistakes if we are not prepared to learn from our experiences. To do this, we must learn to pause and introspect. We must invest in the power of silence. In a world where everything is easier than before, we have failed to keep things simple.
At a time when there is a growing clamour for more laws and better governance, we are yet to understand that we have failed to govern ourselves. We yearn to belong anywhere but here. We align ourselves with people and projects and movements with a desperate hope that these will help define our self. It is only by knowing how to govern ourselves, we become worthy of emulation.
We dont need another revolution. We need to learn how to evolve better.
