Practical Journal

Smudging chocolate ice cream on your shirt should not win you the title of being clumsy because there are things that are beyond our might. On the more serious note, I am going to accept the fact that more than half the things that happen in my life do so without my slightest intervention. One tries looking outside the box only to be stunned by the intricacies. The immeasurable depths of the world and I, the underdog!
The reality of being the underdog as compared to previously holding the self proclaimed crown for supporting them can be achingly cumbersome. However, such a realization only grants us the fervor to move forward.

Experiencing merely the superficiality of our presence leads us to be self proclaimed champions. As the visualization ascends to a level of comprehension, it becomes vivid that narcissism lasts as far as the least distance of the literal distinct vision and we brutally fail to grasp the amalgam we our selves are. Then making the effort to discover what our personalities are eventually becomes a phenomenon too dull or perhaps impossible which leaves us searching for others to reverberate in the valleys of our mundane hollows. In the attempt to bewitch people we selfishly synthesize temporary attributes that are alluring. With the taste of being praised and adored by those who pulled over we then strive to praise and adore.

On the journey to find personalities worthy of praise we come across people of caliber higher than ours. This renders us to be the underdogs. Since the desire to be the mightier breeds within us, it drives us to conquer them and their throne. The cycle goes on as we continue to confront, fathom and overcome those providing us with the gradient toward a level they posses. As for those who fail to do so shall remain underdogs until they vanquish us, or perish by the wrath of the mightier.

Strangely enough, all of us would settle down neglecting many such gradients; one often grows tired, oblivious or satisfied and grateful under the umbrella of fatalism. This settling is with a sense of complacency either actual or delusional. Delusional complacency would be to assume a rival, a potential stronger being, to be dormant or dead. Actual would be to assume him to be in ambush. If we are still talking about rivals how is this complacency? It is because the thought of having rivals, apart from being a soothing one, is also a smarter one. How is assuming to have rivals settling down? It is because we prepare for them and maintain our positions at the elevated levels we have reached and anchored after voyaging through and battling down the tunnel of life that runs a predetermined course governed by the Mightiest.
