25 and Disappointed: Humans

25 and Disappointed: Humans > God?

Many people believe in God - and idea that the God shall protect the good, punish the wrong and guide the lost. For many, God is the foundation, support. It’s the guiding spirit. Or anything. The idea of God is not something explainable in such a simple terms.

But my belief of God, being someone who is watching and all powerful is beginning to deteriorate.

The planet is burning.

Our children are starving.

People are sleeping hungry while food is thrown away.

Wars. Floods. Abuse. Injustice.

Still, we are praying?

The thing is - everything I see - good and bad - is stemming from humans.

People are saving each other.

People are hurting each other.

God.. is just there watching?

Can we say “God will help?”

I wonder at people who ask “How will you explain this miracle?”

I want to ask them - Even if that is God, why only that miracle?

Why not stop countless tragedies happening round the clock?

Why not use power to feed every child, bring water and end the pointless suffering?

If the God is almightily powerful, why the God is doing so little?

God is just a symbolic? Maybe yes. Some people need the idea of God to be in a righteous path. That is fair enough.

But the idea that God, who should be guiding all of us, seems like sitting in silent. That silence is terrifying.

Maybe, dear God -

If you’re listening,

I would like to say -

Sorry. You’re not doing enough.

Maybe, if the God is busy, if it’s just us, then this is a reminder to all my fellow humans -

Please be kinder.

Be better.

Be more human than the God, so we can be more Godly than the God.

Bye-bye strict timetables...! - The Bloggers League 2022

Author: Rama Subrahmanyam (ramasubrahmanyam.m@gmail.com) When we are planning for multi-tasking, we divide our time and allocate it for each task. That is a great thing, as it gives a chance for incremental growth, eventually getting compounded... Scheduling makes us punctual; sometimes forces us to be punctual if someone is counting on us, say an examination, office meeting, so on... Besides strict things, some activities should happen at planned times, like sports, gym, etc. But, we still have things, that can be done in our free time - say reading books, solving puzzles, or learning something of our passion.

25 and Disappointed: Can’t we choose simple life?

There’s something strange about the way we live now. It’s not enough to do your job. You have to grow. Climb. Upskill. Network. Earn more. Spend more. Repeat. People areound you - even the ones who seem tired - still say, “Keep pushing.” The ones ahead keep reaching higher. The ones behind are told to catch up. And if you stand still for even a moment, they say you’re wasting time. But no one explains why. Why is a peace a problem? Why is being satisfied with what you have seen as a failure? This idea of “simple life” - it used to be normal. Work. Come home. Cook. Be with the people you love. Rest. Now it’s rare. Or romanticized. Or quietly looked down on. We’re told that success means constant movement. That we need to hustle, or we’ll be left behind. But behind what, really? We’ve normalized the rat race, without asking who started it. And the truth is - only a few can actuallly win it. Most people burn out trying. Others fake their way through it, smiling through st...
