REPLACEABLE OR NOT?

 Everyone's replaceable? 

See, that's the thing. Some people just aren't. 

And it's a realization that only comes to light after the novelty of a new interaction wears off. 

And that doesn't mean you're putting them on a pedestal or clinging to a toxic ideal. 

And it certainly doesn't mean life doesn't or cannot go on after them. 

But there is something about some people we meet that is so incredibly special to us and by devaluing them we also devalue what we had. 

You may meet a person that just has something so unique about them: the way they are, the way their minds work. The way they see the world. 

And it doesn't mean you won't find other amazing people whom you get along with. 

But it could just be that one person who touches your soul on a molecular level. 

Their combination of traits were compatible with yours and they made you feel at home. 

It's okay to admit that some people are irreplaceable. 

It’s ok to admit that you have lost a part of you✍

You have probably heard the phrase “Think outside the box!” or came across the phrase in literature at least once in your lifetime. The expression has become a mantra frequently quoted in various institutions with the intention to encourage imaginative thinking, creativity and innovation. We have been subjected to a comfort zone characterized by familiar and linear routines which “boxes” our minds. I have always wondered, why think outside the box? Then I came across a quote that read “there are many ways to kill a cat” and then I thought to myself “that’s it.” We have to realize the importance of breaking through the status quo and the decades-old approaches to life, problem solving and strategizing thus this article’s primary intention. Resolved, one has to think outside the box because there are many ways to kill a cat. Inside the box which are the different societies we live in, there are set norms for us to believe from a tender age such that we cannot act or think contra...

Sick and Tired

It won’t be long before you discover that the human mind is sick. Our emotional body is wounded and infected with emotional poison that manifests in the form of fear, anger, hate, sadness, envy and hypocrisy amongst other emotions that practically make humans suffer. Where did we get this disease. Suffice to say, all humans are mentally sick with this same disease and this world might just be a huge mental hospital. What hurts the most is not only the effects of this sickness but the fact that this disease has been with and within us for thousands of years such that it has been normalized in all facets of life. The medical literature, psychiatric literature and the society at large has accepted the disease as normal which has even led to the education system adapting such a norm and instilling it in us from a tender age. We have even come up with names such as paranoia, psychosis, schizophrenia just to come to terms with our illness but what it all means is that our reasoning mind is s...
