Common is so Uncommon

              As I sit in my class with the faculty solving a simple problem and yelling at us, saying, “where have we lost our common sense’, He declares ‘The common sense has become so uncommon these days”

       I start wondering what actually hasn’t become uncommon.

             Human intellectual is something that has very less of a competition. The thoughts that it generates are innumerous and are matchless. I would say only one word would describe intellectual well – “It’s AMAZING”. We actually are born with the uncommon thinking ability.

             There was a time where in we were made to do certain things in certain way, something like follow the path that everyone followed.

         Then as we grew up and started to think out of the box, we did the same thing in many innovative ways. This of course was a great revolution in liberalizing our monotonous thought process.

          But I feel then started a phase, where in we started getting a notion that unless you do things in an uncommon way, you are still a below average person who lacked the ability to think out of box.

A phase which I would like to term as “Obsession of being Uncommon”     

          Seeing through these developments that’s happening around, I ask myself,

“Is being common something really bad?

Or is the obsession of being uncommon something good?

Aren’t we losing some good commonness in us while we are occupied in competition within ourselves trying to become uncommon in everything that we do?

I feel we are…..
