World being Considerate (scrapcollection)
I remember in my childhood when I was in school, it was an overall attitude that strictness and discipline is good. You have to perform within the given frame and you have to be the best. And perfectness is always quantifiable in those frames. On an overall basis, people from the 20th century will always talk about passion, greatness, perfection, goals, hard work, etc. Being tough and strong is the best quality in anyone according to that century. Hence the world at that time was full of critics, extreme thoughts, great achievers and failures.
But this burden of greatness was so much that I guess things after the 20th century started becoming more soft. After 2020 the year of pandemic, this change of attitude is more evident. The teacher who used to lose all control on the late comers now tries to understand students' problems. Now it is okay not to be best because bestness is in its core a vague term. You are more free to live the way you want. Joyfulness, frankness, cuteness are the new trending traits of a good person. This change has some hopes. It is full of humanity.
But the only concern I have is that this attitude is giving chances to excuses. It is a very loose and humble system and hence it’s easy to tackle. But again are we tackling the system or ourselves? On an overall basis this attitude is really good, it brings positivity, but it should not make us weak and slow. We should do studies and understand where we are going with this as a species? And we should also discuss and decide where we want to go as a species in the upcoming future?

36daysoftype2021
Last year I got to know about 36daysoftype prompt. I saw it , never thought that I would do it, but then lockdown happened and suddenly everything got stopped. And to be creative in weird lockdown state I started doing 36daysoftype in 2020 and I really had fun. I enjoyed it. There is something very satisfying about letters.
This year It happened in similar way (I never expected and wanted that). Firstly I thought I would not do it but I ended up doing it maybe due too lockdown. This 36days prompt somehow makes me flow, just have random fun without any rules. It keeps the creative energy on for 36 days.
This year my main intention behind doing this was to practice pen tool in illustrator to be more precise especially in curvy shapes. That’s why I choose I’m lazy to do both)lowercase letters, they are more curvy (and I am a bit lazy to do both upper-lower case)

“Its too easy to die and too hard to live.” When I heard this line, it felt like one more catchy line from some fancy movie. But now I feel like its true. Its really too easy to die. There are serval ways to just end the life without any pain, but then why do we live?
It bugs me a lot. Life is full of struggles, hardships, sadness, expectations, worries, and many more. The is luring part also like family, love, happiness, etc. but is that it? Are we just living to experience that all?
If you see from the evolutional point of view, its proved that we are just part of evolution, it was not at all intentional to divert evolution like this its totally random and if evolutions repeats again we might or might not come again. So there is no purpose, no duty, I am not expected to leave any trace behind.
So then again . Why to live? Why to take so much efforts? Maybe, not for purpose but for a meaning. Which I am give to my life. But then what is that meaning? Also living gives me chance to visit these questions, thoughts and find the answers , If I choose to die I will never get answers. Also if we take something from Descartes he said, “I think, therefore I am.” and living gives me chance to think.

Movie I saw (scrap collection)
Yesterday I saw a very beautiful movie. The reason I saw this movie is its name ‘The Ship of Theseus’.
This philosophical question about, what is one’s real identity? always moved me. A lot of time I have spent just to search on various websites to listen or read various people’s arguments on this question and to choose my answer. Its in a way my hobby. This is the main reason why I choose to watch this movie. I thought maybe this will help me to choose my answer.
The movie is directed by Anand Gandhi. The film premiered at the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival, where it received critical acclaim and was touted as "the hidden gem of the year"
Its about 3 personalities with very strong stances in there life. They all go through a very big physical change in there life and how that changes their stances, their life, and most importantly them as a human. One more interesting part of the movie is how and from where that change came from?
If you ask me, did this movie game me correct answer to the philosophy? then I would say No. But this movie gave me that realization that, the beauty of the question lies in its unanswered nature. If you really just want answers only then you can just pick one side and done. But then that will be end and you will stop thinking about it. This reminds me the quote of famous Marathi writer V. P. Kale “We don’t want just the answers, we want answers with satisfaction.” And in this case the satisfaction is in the process of thinking.
When Krishna says in Geeta that ‘don't think about results but enjoy the process.’ I always thought how nonsense it is , if I’m not getting any results then what is the point of doing the process , but now I feel what he meant that , choose the goal which is beyond your mental or physical limits, so that you automatically focus on the enjoying the process...
My favorite dialogue from the film “ we all are blind people trying to perceive the elephant.”

I am lost, I am stuck, I don’t know where are I am heading.
The truth is that I know that as a design student, I need to be lost, stuck and also vague for some-time. But I am really yet not used to it.
This online world sometimes feels so real and sometimes feel so artificial. You are very active on Instagram posting stuffs getting likes, you feel like you are being good enriching. But actually you are just posting some good looking stuffs and vice-versa.
In 2020, suddenly social media became so important to all of us that we somehow managed to get disconnected from our real life/ we made our real life a social media life.
For me personally no matter how much I work, if I'm not getting that happy sleep after that work, then it just feels useless to me.
