Constraints

“Constraints liberate” a quote

Attributed to Wittgenstein

But do they really?

Realizing that one’s capacities are constrained

Could make one unapologetically enthusiastic, or

Could make one irredeemably handicapped

Realizing that one’s freedom is constrained

Could make one unnaturally slavish, or

Could make one uncontrollably fearless

Realizing that one’s time(in the universe) is constrained

Could make one uninhibitedly free, or

Could make one irrevocably dejected

In short constraints don’t liberate, per se

It’s human attitude towards it.

PS : Inspired by this

I feel it is narcissistic of me to explain about myself. I want to consider myself as an explorer. Hence my blog title Thedal Payanam(Roughly translates as Journey towards exploration). Enjoy if you like, don't give a shit if you dislike - Either way I am not going to give a damn about what you think of my blog.
