The Constant Defeat Against Odds

“Variable is the only constant.” This is something I grew by. Though this might have helped me overcome many odds in life, it still to date manages to haunt me. The constant continuity in the repeated events year after year haunts me. 

Constancy is a sign of stillness never fails to haunt me. Life sometimes feels like a song playing on loop. You love it for a while, you start to dislike it after much time has passed, finally, you just accept it, as it is. Some might say, this is the tendency of accepting what cannot be changed.

I agree for most parts, but I have this theory that it’s less acceptance and more comfort. We get so comfortable with the results that we don’t want to try something new and get into the discomfort that comes with change. 

This vicious circle of  “constant defeat from odds” starts to feel comfortable now. It slowly starts making room for the thought, ‘ It is what it is.‘ So how long do comfort and acceptance stand now? Not far apart. They start to feel like the same coin they are two different parts. 

Truthful we remain to none

Me writing this is not out of judgment, it is out of realisation. The realisation of losing self in things that now feel a part of you, your life, and your existence.

Unfortunately for you, somewhere in the dark corner, the thought that finds this habit destructive and bizarre keeps lightning up and the conscious tells you to stop this constant, safe yet delusional and destructive habit of losing to the odds.

Acceptance is good. But how good is an acceptance rooting from powerlessness? Vulnerability? An acceptance with these two as fodder will grow out to be a cactus, reserved and always seeking water. I have decided to break the shackles of constancy before it breaks me inside-out.

Nothing in this world will make a person happier than being content. It may take time, it may take persistence, it may take hard work but it will nurture a person to fight off the constant defeat against odds.

Acceptance is beautiful, Oppression is not

” Worthy will be them of your acceptance if seeking it and not imposing it. ” – Rashi Arera
