Pinjar

She stood there in the cold breeze, freezing her bones but releasing her soul. She could feel herself being torn in two but still it was accompanied with a sense of freedom.

Yeah most of us are just 'Pinjar', a soul caged inside a body. The soul is dead but the body continues to live mechanically. They smile for the world because they don't want them to know that they are just walking dead bodies. It's not wrong also, why shall they make their sufferings somebody's entertainment package? But is it right to pretend? Who are they kidding?

I have a question, a question my friend asked me yesterday. To hurt yourself is a sin and to hurt others is also a sin, but if one has to make a choice between the two what shall he do? Dilemma being if he chooses to hurt himself he will be punished again for it later coz it's a sin. So why shall he suffer twice for the same thing and if he chooses to hurt others it's still unethical. Well I thought it's always best to follow live and let live principle, but doesn't that turns you in a 'pinjar'?
