Animalistic Instincts

If you were wondering where I've been for the past few months, let me say that I was away enjoying the usual roller-coaster ride of life. It’s been sometime since I last posted. I've taken time away from the social convention to rediscover the core values of life. I may have discovered some, yet I may have not discovered what I've wanted to discover. Let me leave it to that point and I will write on it soon. I had some interesting experiences over the last few months which I wanted to share with all of my loyal fans. I hope those few people who've been reading my posts have not abandoned me! Anyhow, one of the main reasons for me to write this happened a few days ago. A friend of mine called me recently and his exact words were “aren't you writing anymore? It was nice to see your point of view on things”. This actually helped me realise that people do read my posts and they do see a different perspective on it. This made me believe more in my ability to help people look at a different side to this. Also help make a change. I know this is a longer post than my earlier ones, but then, I have a lot of explaining to do. Then again some may feel I have changed my way of writing. Well, that is something I am experimenting, all the time. You will get used to it. Just keep reading.

I had so many thoughts over the past few months which I felt I should post about, but then nothing really came across to be noteworthy. Finally, I have decided to write something which I think is noteworthy. Some may call it controversial. Some may call it current. Many call it as being overrated in today’s society Yes, I am talking about sex. This is a topic which a lot of people in my part of the world do not really want to openly talk about. If you ask people why they do not want to talk about it, they do not have any answer. Then again no one really wants to talk about it in the open. If you talk to people in confidential, everyone does have an opinion about it and would like to openly discuss about it. I did a small experiment today. I asked a random group of young adults how they feel about premarital sex. You know what I got as a response? A moment of silence! I heard people talking in small groups (not loud enough, so I could hear any). Some smiled as if they knew what I was talking about and approved it. Some had the expected surprise and that afterthought of 'I think this is inappropriate and this is an awkward moment'. Well these are the usual expressions for a set of individuals who are born and raised in a society which believes, openness is a crime. We still have not got over the concept of an evolving world. People would engage in a sexual encounter behind closed doors but will come out and look down on people who actually express themselves. I am not trying to take a side on this matter. It is important that we keep an open mind and discuss some of these matters. Do not let your judgement, cloud your critical reasoning on this. Just take few minutes, and think to yourself, see which viewpoint you would like to take. Everyone has their reasons to agree or disagree. All I am suggesting is that you keep an open mind and think about these matters.

By saying all this, we need to bring a mental revolution to this society. We need to insist that sex is simply a biological need an animal needs to fulfil (bear in mind that we are animals too and we have the same needs). It is not a crime to talk about it, neither a sin. Stop looking down on people who claim to have satisfied their animalistic instincts. Start exploring ways how you could satisfy your own without disgusting others. Also know that just because you have satisfied your needs that will not make you a superior creature in this vicious cycle of life.

Just an afterthought, I heard some amazing news today, which melted my heart. I was fortunate enough to talk to someone who has done an amazing sacrifice. Something that anyone would think again, before they actually go ahead with it (trust me I would think about it). To donate an organ of yours to someone else, would take an enormous amount of courage as well as tremendous mental strength. Even you have all this factors with you; to go ahead with the idea is amazing and show the selflessness of the individual. These are the rare individuals who remind us the true value of life. These are the very humans who teach us the lessons of sacrifice. I am proud to say that 'I actually met an amazing human being'
