Thoughts

By Afraz Alam

Does the average man have any idea how rare he is ?

How is he born completely unique to himself and himself only ?

Storytellers all have a voice of their own

They all have their own way of speaking and talking 

Muttering and whispering

Thinking and pondering

I wonder how rare and complex the procession of thinking must be

Endless wires and electricity flowing and pouring about in our very body to move around and walk 

It's amazing isn't it ?

Everyone ponders 

It's natural to ponder

It's in the nature of humans to ponder

Someone must be thinking something out there

Maybe you're thinking of "what if this is just the author's thoughts laid bare ?"

And yes it is...

Thinking thoughts and thinking of anything 

Is a miracle in its own

To have a consciousness and an awareness of one's surroundings 

To be able to think

To reason

To analyze and 

To realise

Thoughts are what makes one himself

It's his very core

To have a brain

A mind and an awareness 

Is the pinnacle of evolution 

Thinking about thinking is thinking

Writing about thinking includes thinking

And thinking about anything requires thinking 

I suppose god must also have felt lonely once

It's the only possible reason for him to create us

Because he felt that he was lonely being the only one to think and be aware

Maybe we're all just a bunch of thoughts

Small bubbles of matter and thoughts created by God himself by thinking

Maybe how we see is just a stream of thoughts coming to our brain from the eyes, they think too

Thinking...

It's truly marvelous at delving deep into how rare it is of you to have a consciousness 

To be aware and curious...

Something many others don't have 

It's a rare gift indeed to be curious and to not follow blindly...

It's a gift everyone should have

Everyone must have…
