Outer beauty attracts the eyes and is ephemeral whereas inner beauty attracts the heart and is long-lasting. Outer beauty immediately attracts the eyes whereas inner beauty takes a long time to attract the heart, it needs patience. Because the heart beats continuously for lifelong without stopping, maybe that's why the heart likes long-lasting things like itself. And also it takes time to choose things.
Ideologies give direction to our lives. Wrong ideology can lead us in the wrong direction.
Knowingly and unknowingly, we have been holding on to many ideologies since childhood, which our elders have been telling us.
for example: I was an atheist earlier because I was a student of science. I always used to weigh everything with the scale of logic. Then later I realise that life does not just run on logic, faith/belief is also needed. Then later I became a theist. But in theism, everything revolves around God. All the people were engaged in pleasing God in their own way with different names. This ideology of keeping God happy started dominating me too. Then the question arose in my mind that if God also feels happiness-sadness, respect-insult, pity-anger etc., then what is the difference between God and human beings? Then I left theism and became open-minded. Now I become whatever is needed, sometimes I become a believer, sometimes I become an atheist. Depending on the situation and the mind state of that time, I hold on to an ideology, I hold on to it as long as it is needed. I now weigh things on the scales of both truth and belief. I have no covetousness with God that he will being happy give something to me, nor I have any fear that he will take anything away from me in anger. Because being happy or angry is a human tendency, not a divine instinct.
Well, most of the dreams I forget after waking up. I don't even remember today's dream. But the dream which is very pleasant or sad, only that one can be remembered.
I think, your success can only be measured by yourself. Whatever you have achieved in your life, if you are satisfied with it, then you will be considered successful. Your self-satisfaction is the measure of your success.
RE: Funny moods
I didn't go into so many details of the mood. I am just enjoying my mood.
