Blooming rationality...



Life is a composite of four words, two realms of fantasy and reality, and some smiles and sighs. It's more of an ostentatious abstract painting, that doesn’t need a definition, but needs to be deciphered; and all it takes to decipher the code of life is a slice of common sense and a whole lot of logic and rationality. For life is to be understood and lived realizing it's worth, not lived by merely defining the live we live.
There lies a thin line of discrimination, defining the two realms of fantasy and reality and erasing this lie would muddle you up as to on which bank do you stand. So, what does it take to possess this whole lot of rationality, as we've put it? What does it take to realize this tantalizing essence of life and be on the right bank? Life can't be possessed, for it saunters into us by dint of its own whims and fancies and departs in the very similar manner. So, terming it tantalizing wouldn't be phony. What does it take... what? Muslin sheets of well-crafted success, an ocean of bliss, dearth of any fleeting grief, the health of King Henry, the eighth or the wealth of Midas? No... the Wisdom of King Solomon is all that you need, and any sane soul would proudly assure you that! To put it in bare British, knowledge and knowledge in true sense is all you need in the twenty-first century, to really live life, that is let yourself live life and not allow the ship of destiny set sail and drive you to the bank she desires. Framing it into one precise and highly appropriate word – 'Education', which is the call of the day.
This enchanting word that lies as the secret of the world's prosperity, unlocks the basic necessities of the human mind, of a rational creature. Basic necessities usually refer to shelter, food and clothing, yet that bears allusion to the physical and not the mental concept of a rational being. Necessities of the mind would be the crystal clear answers as to how to face the scenario he lives against, understand the life he lives and render his own meaning to it, face the world he dwells in, express his own notions as well as realize the others of the 'he', the 'she' and the 'they' but most notably, the significance of the word, 'me'. The slice of education while shimmer on his soul, with the pride of perfection. It's melt away to seep into the individual's soul and answer his burning question of the meaning of his own life, need of existence and definitely the purpose. Education will answer him his own significance and hold of himself and his senses.
So, this is the mystic lure of education. The essence that binds reasons and indispensable reasons as too... the essence that binds wandering souls to life itself!
