What is the definition?

Definitions are important as they help the reader understand your ideas. However are we getting too absorbed in defining everything in our life that we have lost touch of what can happen if we don’t define something?

Everywhere we see definitions about:

1. What is True Love?

2. What is Happiness?

3. What is success?

4. What is failure?

And so on ….

Defining anything is not an issue but making it “the only definition” is. When we define something what we subconsciously are doing is making it like a destination or a tool to measure whether we are on the right track for achieving that something or not? For example success for some may be owning their own house, having a luxury item, having x amount in their bank and so on. Now that we have defined what success means to us, we either end up working to achieve the same or keep redefining as per the changes in circumstances. But doesn’t this sound more like goal setting? Just something to think about.

Now the bigger question is in the process of defining everything, have we somewhere forgotten to experience and feel ? When was the last time you let things unfold for itself rather than you defining the moment.
