LIVEI WANT TO LIVETHIS CANNOT BE MY MEANINGI AM A VOICEYOUR INNER VOICE

I AM THE EVIL GIANT OF DARKNESSIGNORANCE , FEAR , DISUNION , PURPOSELESSARE MY VIRTUES4

NO!!! I WANT TO LIVELET ME LIVELET ME BE METhe girl here tries to question the rules by which everyone lives andRaises a question on the PURPOSE OF LIFE.

She questions the meaning of being alive.

The symbolic giant of darkness Within us answers the Purpose Of life to be peace, comfort and happinessBut within confined zonesThe authority is supreme, and Nobody is to question the authorityThere is no good or evil, but only the opinion of authority.The authority rules and you , the people , are the ruled. Your freedomIs subject to my rule.Everybody is alive and their sole purpose is to abide by me

The purpose of life is to KNOW.The author through the girl symbolizes that humans are no slave to authority. Freedom depicted through light of hope Comes through questioning and awareness . Through knowing the purpose of my doing , through earning my right to be recognized . TO be able to carry out my own orders . To know to distinguish between right and wrong . TO have a right to be entitled to an opinion . To have a right to be heard. The right to respect. The right to equality

But knowledge beckons deathThe author here symbolizes our fear to embraceKnowledge.

Fear to be rebellious Fear to be courageousFear to be pushed out of our comfort zoneFear to earn what is our rightly

Fear to question the face of wrongFear to question inequality and slaveryFear to fightFear to hear our inner voiceFor warriors are not born but created through pain and sacrifice and self-conqueringKNOWING IS LIVING.SELF WORTH IS TRUE WORTH

The Authority questions the birth of the concept of awarenessWhich is unnatural in a world where everything is taken for granted withoutQuestioning

And through the girl , the concept of HE is born

He is the seed of HopeHe is the seed of courageHe is the seed of awareness . He is everywhere , still nowhere . He is omnipotentHE IS YOU. YOUR INNER VOICE . YOUR UNLOCKED POTENTIAL.HE IS YOUR ANSWER TO YOU.HE IS INVISIBLE FOR HE IS WITHIN YOU.

KILL THE HE FOR I AM THE SUPREME BEING AND YOU A MERE SLAVEIGNORANCEPUPOSELESSDISUNIONFEAR

BUT CAN HOPE BE DESTROYED?Penetration in the form of hope takes shape in the girls brain, a hope that can only do anything but penetrate , Hope that is unstoppable and unattainable. Hope and will power that is non-destroyable.

But fear to attain and utilize this new found power urges the girl to curb these feelings of hope within her , Fear of authority and lack of questioning herself for so long a decade forces herself to Doubt the presence of this new-found hope . And it is this fear which she is afraid to Embrace.

But Hope does not listen to fears , Hope does not listen to authorityIt is You only that Hope listens toFor it is your hope that is within youWhy to fear the Evils when your own will-power is with you?Why to fear rebel ? Why to fear self-doubt?

Embrace thy own true self and thy shall be rewardedFor self-realization is the greatest giftFor self-conquer is the hallmark of a great warrior

Let us be unified before the light of hope simmers away.Let me be an example if not the reason for change.For great battles have been fought off a trigger point.Let our unification too be a trigger point.

A start towards Greatness . Embrace me ,O Human !! It is yourself that you Embrace . Do not shy away

But alas !!! The wretched fear of society , the wretched fear of breaking a norm or a routine , Alas the wretched fearThat does not give but takes away from you the courage to listen to yourselfAlas that fear which stops you from listening to yourself . Alas that wretched fear that questions.

ALAS THAT FEAR THAT SLAINS HOPE!!!ALAS TO THAT STAR THAT SHINES ALONE AND ONLY ALONE. ALAS TO THOSE WHO COULD HAVE ALSO LIT THE SKY WITH THEIR HOPES

HAIL THE DARKNESS THAT WINS OVER ONE HOPE OF A STAR. FOR UNITED WE STAND , DIVIDED WE FALL

IIT IS WE WHO LOSE . IT IS WE WHO IS ABSENT . GONE ARE THE DAYS OF THE I.I CANNOT BE A PART OF THE CHANGE . IT IS WE WHO HAVE TO BE A PART OF CHANGE.FIGHT FOR RIGHT CAN NEVER BE SINGULAR.

RISE AND BE A PART OF THE CHANGE . DO NOT JUST WITNESS THE CHANGE.A WARRIOR NEVER EXPECTS REWARDS . HIS INNER VICTORY IS HIS REWARD.

LET HE ARISE . LET HOPE AND WILL-POWER CONQUER THE DARKNESS THAT WE LIVE IN.FOR IT IS US WHO ARE THE AUTHORITY . FOR IT IS US ON WHOM THE AUTHORITY STANDS

RISE AND LET YOUR INNER SEED FIND YOU . EMBRACE YOURSELF . YOU ARE THE ONE THAT MATTERS.BY THE PEOPLE , FOR THE PEOPLE , OF THE PEOPLE . PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS IS OUR BASIC RIGHT. EARN IT.
