Captivity unkown, a dream overblown!

Nothing recurs, it's our brain's attempt at finding patterns. No behavior is consistent as such or in comparison. Our minds have been trained a certain way, still we think different. Everyone has their influences, growing up is all about that. No two people can be brought up exactly the same, a thought experiment should be enough to validate, no two people were born the same.

Language has consistency, words have meanings, sentences do too. It still is largely dependent on interpretation, how we interpret things is again a reflection of our thought process. Control could drive such behavioral patterns, only if we had enough of it. Lack of control stems out of randomness that we are not able to interpret because we're too busy looking for patterns.

Isn't it a vicious loop that we're all tangled up in?

Emotions take the better of our brains, all clarity is then lost. Deception is a mere misinterpretation caused by this haziness. What we see is a picture we make for ourselves and is at times far from what is real. We believe what we want to believe, four leaf clover. In search of consistency we often fall prey to what is now famously known as "Retrospective Distortion" and the triplet of opacity.

We've not been given a world to live in but an illusion of reality. Love and hate are conspiracies that we're all a part of, to blur our vision, to keep us away from something we do not know.

Surreal reality, a living nightmare.
