Who Are You?

If someone asks me, “Who are you?”, what should my answer be?

Hmm...

I am not who I think I am.
I am not who you think I am.
I am who I think you think I am.

Recently, through social media and literature, I came across something very peculiar. At first, I did not think much about it. But the more I saw it, the more I began to believe it.

Say, listeners (readers), have you ever heard about the Rule of Three?

The rule says that at any given moment in life, a single individual can only give attention to three main things.

Yes, only three things.

So I ask myself again:

Who are you?

Well, I am a 24-year-old corporate mazdoor who gives one of his attention points to his job. Out of the remaining two, one goes to my hobby of learning guitar, and the other, as you can see, goes to writing blogs.

To be honest, I do more than that. I try to stay in shape with some physical activity. I read novels to pass the time. Sometimes I even warm my hands on a gas stove and eat something delicious.

But with all of that listed above, how can one say they only pay attention to three things?

To test this rule, I started listing my daily life. And to my surprise, I noticed a pattern: on the days I did more than three things, I felt mentally exhausted.

Well, it made me sleep like a potato, but I was still exhausted.

On most days, though, I usually do only three things.

One day, I am a guitarist.
Another day, I am a blogger.
As a kid, I was an anime guy.
On some days, I am my family’s IT guy.
On other days, I am a gym bro.

Here is the truth: at any given time, I can be any one of these guys, but I cannot be all of them at once.

So do not try to be all of you at once. Just choose any three for a day.

I will start following the Rule of Three from now on.

If you choose to do the same, let me know in the comments how it went.

So this fool takes his leave by saying:

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, and good night to however, whatever, and wherever you are, my listeners (readers).

Why So Serious?

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, and good night to whoever, whatever, and wherever you are.

While sitting in the endless files of the internet, I noticed something: it has been two or three months since I wrote a single blog. That made me stop and think.

Why haven’t I written anything?

This question made this fool think about things.

What is the exact reason this is happening?

And since this fool is a curious one, I had to go and find the answer. So I started a journey into my own mind. Wandering through the tunnels of memory and a lot of hidden knowledge, I searched for an answer.

And voila — the answer was right in front of me.

It was a simple question:

“Why so serious?”
(Batman reference)

For the last few weeks, many things have been happening. There has been a rise of cockroaches, the world seems to be going upside down, and the stock market is going down and down… and so on. So many things have been going on.

This fool got serious. Very serious.

And now I have only one choice to counteract all this seriousness: I have to become silly again.

Many times, with everything going around us, we stop being ourselves and start becoming more serious and serious and serious. And to be fair, it is not always easy to notice when that happens.

But at this moment in life, it becomes very important to ask ourselves that simple question from the Batman movie:

“Why so serious?”
(Batman reference)

And to answer that question, we must become silly again.

Start doing the random little things that make you feel like yourself.

Go on a trek. Go for a bike ride around the city. Draw something funny you've always wanted to draw. Or write your own blog and write that favourite Batman line — “Why so serious?” — again and again.

Because the choice of what you want to do is always in your own mind and your own hands.

Why so serious?

Lastly, this fool asks for forgiveness from his followers, as this fool has not written a single blog for the past few months. I hope you will have forgiveness in your heart to give to me.

And I end today’s blog by saying the favorite line from the favorite Batman movie:

“Why so serious?”
(Batman reference)
