One of the most unprecedented year of recent human history, a year in which we saw antitheticals, opposites and naysaying coming to reality. Whatever was supposed to be taboo to a good social life, every thing turned to reality. The established customs, cultural patterns, etiquettes went for toss. Strangely for many people, the year passed by faster than any other year. Possibly because people do not have many memories or outings and even the newsitems were limited and repetitive. Consequently the year felt to have passed so quickly.
The year brought a change in my mental setup. I became less empathic and more routine. Life seemed to gain stability and routine. I became less satisfied and little bit greedy. The desire to achieve, earn money, status, fame tend to rise again. This was mentally unsettling. The state of peace enjoyed when you have less desires and high stability seemed to get disbalaned due to rise in expectations. The workohalic me returned to its self state and sometimes mind became work paralysed. It is a state when you have enormous pending work but you do little because of lack of clear prioritization and confusing ambitions. Overall the mental restlessness increased in the second half of the year which was somewhat disturbing to realise. It is like you finally throw away some baggage after struggling so hard for years but then social pressure, personal desires and ambitions, career compulsions and quest for future push you down the same track again.
So for year 2021, my utmost effort would be on staying effortlessly and enjoying the life peacefully.
