Let go
TO THE WORLD……….
The wee branches of Chemistry- molarity, molality, i can understand. What I have failed to comprehend, after long hours thinking about, it is the seemingly gargantuan, yet ridiculously molested concept of Morality.
How exactly do we define morality? It is supposed to be – “in accord with certain standards.” Let us consider- Morality is said to have been assaulted due to Speech, Sex or Sobriety (rather, the lack of it). Yet, it is true to say that these ‘standards’ or guidelines vary for different people. If I am loud and exuberant in a public place- another person might denounce me as a menace to ‘society’. If I see a good-looking girl and my eyeballs scamper across to the other side to get a second glimpse- I’m an immoral beast.
I’m sorry for all the threads I’ve pulled, all the lies of told, all the treachery I’ve committed- but haven’t you too? Isn’t that how everything works. I realize- you have a responsibility, you wish to make it easier for me. I realize there is a need for some order in this chaotic entity that is the world- for rules, for society. But please, LET GO! Just give me a nudge, tell me a path, be my friend and do it with subtlety. I WILL learn how to live, and that WILL be my way, not a Xerox of some other life. Why else are we all unique?
CHAK DE PHATTE!!

"Molality! Molarity! What about Molarity?" ;)
it is not possible to define da same morals for every one coz as u said v r all diff, unique in r selves.v r no1 to decide wats rite n wats rong! Wen it comes to morals n values,it is da protocols u set fer ur self. wen it cmes to judging ppl, it shud b according to da set of values dey hold, acc to der morals n not wat v think is rite. But yes, der r ppl claiming things bt doin jus da opposite.. dats wat lackin morality is!!! Hypocracy, corruption, treachery,.. certain things ever1 agrees r rong.. bt stil many do .. its dese ppl hu lack morals! N if ne1 hu claims dese as rite n does dem.. u cnt really says he/she lacks morals.Neways.. jus wat i feel.. Nice post!
You are right...JUST LET GO! There many people who always think what they say, think, do, etc is right; And most of all they think their advice is always right. I mean it's our choice whether to take his/her advice after all.
Morality? Everyone has set their own morals or else set by their parents. It's very difficult to inculcate those morals into somebody else's life which may entirely have different situations!
Main thing is to abide by or stick to your own morals and as UD said don't live a Xerox copy of some other life coz you'll go bonkers if you do that!
Anyway... nice post... but longest comment till now!
It's confusing- very highly confusing. All ideas are different, all thoughts are unpredictable. what a certain person might do at any given moment, is noones guess. But we still have to follow some rules.
Arch storm aka manoj: i completely agree with you. the kind of hype the media creates about anything linked with sex is outrageous. Ask those mediapersons, haven't they ever watched porn, hvn't they had sex.
