One

You’re not the man you chose to be whom you really are, but instead you’re the outcome of the environment surrounding you. You’re the result of life ingredients being thrown at you. You never choose whom you want to be by yourself. But so many people decide for you.

Architectures are always fake models of man’s creation. What’s real is what’s inside. Nothing concrete, but just the spirits that wander within.

Never decide who you really want to be. Rather decide who you friends should be. Decide how to live and adjust accordingly. Adapt your way of living with what’s there around you.

Sometimes we find ourselves lost in a vast world. Sometimes we find ourselves and find our way back. Sometimes we fight to keep advancing, hitting so many walls on our way. Sometimes we insist and some other times we give up. The decision or the perseverance is a result of our physical condition, as it can be a result of our mental one. Giving up and going further is a decision we take. We adapt it to our environment.

We don’t live alone on this planet. There are so many people living there too. Each wants to survive. And survive well. Each wants to be rich, famous and happy. Human conditions we see today are the results of the distribution of wealth among all mankind. Unfortunately there are no enough resources to make each one rich, famous and happy. People will have to fight to reach the desired. Luck enters the equation most of the time. But luck is the outcome of trial. If you try, you increase your chances. If not, you have no chance at all.

Sometimes people want nothing but something. A mother who lost her son wants nothing but her son back. She doesn’t care if she was rich or not. All she wants is her son to be at her side. A blind man wants to see all the colors of the world. Some can see better than we do, even if blind, but still putting a color to a vision is something great to watch.

People lose loved ones. People lose needed things. People grieve. Some get over it and some others live with it. Some adapt and some others don’t. It’s just how life is. Hard to live sometimes. But great to go through.

What would you do to have one person back in your life? Who would you chose? What a hard of a decision that would be. Some of you already know the answer. Some others will have to think deeply. Only one person. Whether that person left to another planet or left to settle on the other end of this one we live in.

Imagine. You have the power to bring back only one person.

I know whom to choose. I wouldn’t think about it for a second. Some others who have left me, I will keep there. It was their time. They’re better off away. But someone left for no reason. For no purpose at all. It wasn’t the right time.

There are six billion people in this world. Six billion soles. Some are good but struggling with evil. Some others are bad but struggling with goodness.

Yes. Six billion people in this world.

And sometimes, all you need is one!
