The chosen quagmire

The chosen quagmire or trap

is where actions are distraction

checking the boxes of societal expectation

also feels like a solution

although it creates bigger problems

that you know

and still you want to be utterly trapped

in those bills and EMIs.

In reality, you are just trying to escape

that which you have tried to control,

but are now convinced is impossible

You are running away for personal sanity,

while adding more pressure to your life.

And why do you choose this option,

The simple answer is you enjoy this pain instead.

Also being busy and occupied is best way to be productive

by avoiding recurring thoughts of self doubt that pull you down.

it frees you from overthinking and the crisis it creates

They carry our culture forward, our values, our names, our ways— small hands holding centuries of yesterdays. Their curiosity is contagious, offering a new lens on the world. You want to live well for your child, and suddenly, you’re afraid to die. ...

They are called modern in every era For they dare to be different Push the social boundaries Ask explanation for traditions That paint them weak, Keep them away from power, Burden them with responsibility, Curb their right to choose and push them to just follow- the mores and customs & practices most of which they despise.
