BEYOND THE BOUNDARIES
' I've always been very competitive , and a part of that is pushing your boundaries '-Scarlett Johansson
Boundaries have always been set , may it be a cricket stadium , golf court , swimming pool or even one's own life.
I Anum Abbas , 21, student of BACHELOR IN BUSINESS , was once asked to explain what boundaries in life are ??
and my answer was as simple ; boundaries hide people from the reality of this world , we already have enough boundaries dividing different countries we do not want one more to separate ourselves from the outside .
It is like we have been dictated , given a manuscript to abide with and instructed to follow it or everything will go out of our hands .
We also oblige to it , because now we feel that living beneath that boundary is quite more easy .
But if we look at that boundary sheltering us , as our own personal comfort zone or better yet a small water bubble , we will always be living in a cocoon of fantasy , which when pops will leave us devastated and depressed .
The fate of a bubble is to burst into tiny water droplets due to an external force , these droplets are the reality . The world beyond is cruel and unjust in many ways .
The manuscript or the boundary you take shelter from just for your peace of mind will slowly but surely wither away , as life never goes according to how you plan it out rather it asks for flexibility , adjustments because soon our bubble will burst and we won't even know where it will take us .
' Life is the biggest mystery which can never be unfolded , it just needs time and the things open up as we move along' .
- Anum Abbas
