Why do I write?

Today, I've been pondering something significant: why do I write, and why share it publicly? Is it for external validation, or something deeper?

After much reflection, my motivations unfold like this:

Communication: Social media's negativity is deafening. My blog offers a sanctuary, a space to openly explore and revisit my thoughts, unburdened by the algorithm's fickle whims. It's like an open diary, inviting everyone to witness the evolution of my inner world.

Learning Process: Writing fuels my growth. By articulating feelings, I solidify them, unlocking new layers of understanding. Sharing these explorations in a public forum invites diverse perspectives, further enriching the journey.

Impact and Legacy: Our lives, consciously or not, ripple outward, impacting families and communities. Aiming for a positive influence guides my writing. By weaving threads of positivity into my thoughts, I strive to uplift and inspire.

Seeking Validation? Perhaps initially. I craved feedback, but realizing these words were for me, not external approval, shifted my focus. Now, I welcome progressive comments and constructive criticism but primarily write for my own growth and discovery.

True Reflections? Not all thoughts merit publication. Filtering them requires honesty and discipline, separating fleeting ideas from genuine beliefs. It's this ability to be authentic that elevates good writing to greatness. I strive for it, for honesty is the bridge between my stories and the reader's soul. Many autobiographies, my favourite genre, resonate because their authors dared to be truly themselves.

This journey of introspection has been eye-opening. I see my writing as a tool for communication, learning, and positive impact, fueled by honesty and a desire for authentic expression. And who knows, maybe, just maybe, my words will leave a ripple of their own, one positive thought at a time.

Try to Behave Ideally: A Personal Journey

  Try to Behave Ideally: A Personal Journey Back in 2003, a single piece of advice from my professor lodged itself in my memory. He said, “Try to behave ideally in every situation, encounter, and challenge that you face in your life.” At the time, I balked. “If I lived like that,” I argued, “I’d be a monk—sacrificing the full spectrum of human emotion.” He smiled and pointed out the power word: try. No one can be ideal all the time, he said, but aspiring toward that goal is its own path. I agreed, but only skimmed the surface of what “ideal” might truly mean. Wrestling with “Ideal” Lately, that old admonition has been surfacing more and more. I find myself asking: What is “ideal,” anyway? Is it fixed or does it change from person to person? Should I rigidly follow my own belief system, or defer to someone else’s? In a societal context, what guides me when ideals collide—my ideal, theirs, or the common good? These questions tumbled around in my mind, demanding deeper ...

Unified Wave-Thought Field Framework

Image
Unified Wave-Thought Field Framework (UWTF) A metaphysical-physical model of reality as continuous wave motion embedded in a dynamic thought-plasma field.  I.   Foundational Substrate Unified Medium (UM) All existence arises from a single metaphysical-physical substrate — the Unified Medium. This medium expresses itself in two complementary modes: Wave Mode → manifest matter (particles, energy, bodies). Field Mode → distributed thought-field (non-local, emotional-intellectual presence). Every phenomenon is either a wave in space or a density in thought, or a mixture of both. II.   Wave Dynamics — Matter Representation Matter is Wave Each entity is a waveform in the Unified Medium: Mass ↔ Amplitude of the wave (intensity, gravitational “weight”). Size ↔ Wavelength or Frequency (extent of influence, resolution). Velocity ↔ Rate of Information Generation (time consciousness). These waves exist in 3D space but leave ripples in the thought-field ...

Why We Must Question the Legends We Create

There’s a curious human tendency to martyrize people after their death—especially public figures. It doesn’t matter whether they were divisive, corrupt, or even responsible for atrocities during their lifetime; once they’re gone, time seems to wash away their flaws. Over the years, society elevates them to legendary or even divine status, often forgetting the moral complexity they carried. This is especially true for political leaders. We’ve seen cases where individuals convicted of corruption or responsible for violence are later remembered as heroes. Their darker deeds are softened, rationalized, or completely erased from public memory, replaced with carefully crafted tributes and sanitized biographies. It brings to mind the old saying: “History is written by the victors.” Those who gain power often shape the narrative—not just in their favor, but sometimes at the cost of truth. Our school textbooks, national holidays, and public statues often reflect a single-pointed version of ...
