From You, To Yourself

Today, in the world of complexity and desires I have a simple question for you. A question that you have heard many times in your life and you obviously know the answer to, or do you?

Where are you from?

It seems like a stupid question but I really want to know where do you hail from? The obvious answer is your district or your state you were born in. And then the question is silent because the one who asked you the question formed a mindset about you and he already knows whether to hate you or probably don't give a damn about you.

Sometimes your place tells your community, your community defines your culture, your culture tells your behaviour and your behaviour speaks about your religion, and after one knows your religion, it's a period. A full stop. Because it doesn't matter if you’re are an atheist or not, your religion will define you.

The place you hail from is like a shadow and people see it as your mirror. But how can you let yourself be defined from a small question? It is because you don’t tell the truth. You don’t answer where you are from. You only tell what you have been told from the beginning.

Why do you have to be from a state or even from a country like India, Pakistan, China, Russia or ‘The’ USA? Why do you have to define yourself by the borders? Why can’t you be from this little planet Earth, where we all are from, where we all belong!!

The reason why we are all alone in the universe is because ‘they’ don’t want to contact us. Who would want to contact a race that kill each other for its self-righteousness!!!

This world is a War ground and we need to stop until we turn it into a graveyard. 

Ask yourself – where are you from?
