Self-awareness is freedom: Though it is quite scary but necessary. The real challenge that presents itself is both explicit self-awareness but realizing the judgements that other people have of you doesn’t all translate into what and who you really are. It’s a reality that whatever actions you might take, virtuous in all its inception, they somehow will gain detractors. There will be people who may not like you despite all your best qualities; does that mean we should exercise our self-awareness to change? Well, this will just lead to self-consciousness, fear and anxiety. You can’t please anyone and everyone, but that doesn’t mean there is no validity and lessons to be learnt from others.

In this episode I talk about “Happiness,” which is complicated. On the face value, it may seem quite simple - spread your palms, and life will place it in your hands, but in our human experience, this doesn’t really happen. In my almost twenty-five years of existence on this planet Earth, I can attest to one fact, happiness is a fleeting concept. In modern definition, the route to happiness is in its pursuit. Popular culture - movies, songs, TV and social media entrenches this pursuit in terms of working hard or hustle. This hustle is for money, a great house, a car & a loving partner. This is the basic gist of the pursuit of happiness. I hate oversimplification, and this seems greatly oversimplified.

In today's episode, On Absurdity of Life, we discuss the anti-philosophical stance of French-Algerian philosopher Albert Camus. Through his understanding of the absurdity of human condition which he compares to the myth of Sisyphus, we may seek comfort in knowing that the meaninglessness of our lives can give us the requisite courage and hope to live in defiance; which according to Camus means feeling fulfilled in our willingness to live life.
