As we crossed the famous Tihar jail. I could not help but notice the graffiti on the wall. The conversation focused on the jail. I read somewhere that the inmates painted these. Someone informed that there are such talented singers inside and he has had the opportunity to sing for them and hear them sing as well. " and some of them are exceptional. " he gushed. The conversation then moved to the other topics.
My mind wandered inside the jail. I kept thinking this high security confined area we call jail is full of criminals, some deadly and some petty. Yet some other criminals made by the circumstances.Some of them people with talents unknown to them. I thought, God bestows us with many facultie, it's us to decide which faculty to develop and how much. Sometimes we are too lazy, too scared or too ignorant to step into unknown, thinking we might just fail, fall down or simply " not our cup of tea". We brush aside what we can potentially develop into something beautiful or something that requires a real talent. It's the matter of choice we as humans choose the easiest. Sometimes that easy may not be that easy (like murder or theft or something like that. ) But it seems easy at that point of time against something that requires labour of sweat and blood and not to forget practise.
Sometimes freedom taken away from us or the lack of options make us look down deep inside us. Something that's not easy. Something that's still in explored. We develop that has always been dormant in us.
Sometimes in darkness we find our true selves. The place where we least expect or too afraid to look out before.......think about it.☺
