Impulse



Everyone has created their own little world where they are comfortable the most. Starting from thoughts to feelings to philosophies to places they live, places they explore, people they be with, people they leave, things they do and things they choose not to do. 

I wonder many times that do people really realize that they are part of the little world they have created. But there is a lot out there that they don’t know about. Experiences they have not experienced, people they have not met, did not learn about the life philosophy that can shock their current philosophy, things they have not done. 

When I think about it, I feel that there is so much more we can do in this world. Yet we choose to limit ourselves in a box - a box which is filled with comfort. People often say that living based on impulse will not give you a secure future. I think the opposite sometimes - what if we did not have impulse? Will we be where we are right now? There is no course out there on - how to listen to your impulse and live the life which makes you feel that you really lived. Lately, I feel that my impulses have taken a really far away seat from me. I love to day dream about the fact that what if we did not worry about money, what if we did not worry about a secure future, what if we did not follow society rules, what if we lived truly freely - did everything that our heart told us to. 

Would it not be life well lived? What's the harm in not following linear life? What are we gonna achieve even after living a linear life? I think the only time we allow ourselves to follow the impulse is when we fall in love. That's when we really want to live in the moment, want to be in the present and feel the world at fullest. 

What if we followed the same throughout our life? What if we did not change the course of our life based on some book or some youtube video or linkedin post or instagram posts or by some gurus giving us advice? What if we listened to ourselves first and did what we felt right? Would it not be a better world to live in?
