Becoming of a Solution

Have you ever noticed how the world is overwhelmed with problems? Yet most of us don’t try to solve them, because we know they are deeply interconnected. They can’t be fixed like mathematical equations with simple formulas and clear answers.

Why is this happening? Because people have stopped creating problems and have started becoming the problems themselves. Yes, you read that right. People become the problem once they realize that being part of it is the easiest way to sustain it.

When people create problems, we can solve them—through analysis, brainstorming, and expertise. But how do you deal with people who are the problem?

You handle a problem of being by being the solution.

Read that again.

When someone becomes a problem, the only way to counter it is by becoming the solution yourself. In short, if you are not the problem, then you are already part of the solution.

Read it once more—and start becoming the solution today.

We dont beat the contradictions

When we are taught that 5 + 5 = 10 in school, we accept it without question. That is what schools are meant to teach us. A fact qualifies as truth when it is universally agreed upon. Yet, in reality, very few people are truly successful in applying such truths to the real world.

Although most students learn that 5 + 5 = 10, as they grow older and step into the realities of life, they often find it difficult to apply this truth as it was taught. The world seems more inclined to believe that 5 + 5 is merely a “count” rather than an absolute. People reinterpret it in ways that serve their own interests and find it profitable on their own terms. They may have valid reasons for doing so. What matters, however, is that they learn to apply their beliefs successfully in the real world—and reality does not collapse because of it.

If reality can survive both belief and truth existing side by side, then what purpose does the difference between them serve? This is the million-dollar question. If reality does not collapse under the contradiction between belief and truth, then what does? Simply put, it is the collapse of dreams.

A person who is taught to dream based on truth eventually discovers that the world bulldozes dreams rooted in truth alone. Over time, such a person stops dreaming. What does it mean, then, to live in a world where you know your dreams will be crushed simply for being true to their core?

Yes, the dreams of those who believe often do come true. But was it truly a “dream come true”? Or was it merely a belief fulfilled—because it was belief that survived, not truth necessarily?

 

Goal is to become fruitful and not just a fruit

Reality is made up of countless states, each with its own unique qualities, forming a spectrum of existence. Every state has its own way of participating in this spectrum, contributing to the intricate tapestry of reality.

Occasionally, however, the spectrum itself is put to the test. This isn’t about identifying the “best” state or dismissing the “weak” ones—it’s about examining how each state navigates its own way of being.

Similarly, every individual matures with time, but only a few truly transcend the limits of simple growth. Those who merely ripen become like fruit, complete in themselves. But those who rise above the ordinary boundaries of ripening become truly fruitful, enriching the world around them.

It all comes down to one’s approach to life. Some are content with simply becoming a fruit, while others strive to be fruitful. The path to ripening is common and universal, but the path to fruitfulness requires an extra commitment—a deliberate choice to go beyond what is expected. Ultimately, it is our way of engaging with the world that determines whether we remain a fruit or become genuinely fruitful.

We are exposed

Exposure has the power to transform. Once something is exposed, it can never remain the same as it was before. For example, when pieces of iron are exposed to a magnet, they are pulled and moved in unexpected ways. In the same way, when we expose our sins to God, we are sanctified.

Such is the power of exposure.

Yet most of us fear being exposed in this world. No one is perfect like God, and people often wait for the chance to test or judge those who reveal themselves. The darker the secrets we share with the wrong people, the deeper we can become trapped in darkness, instead of being corrected or healed.

But how long can we truly avoid exposure? There is something within us that reminds us there is no other way. When the time comes, it reveals itself without waiting for our permission, and it continues its work regardless of our resistance.

We may make mistakes when we expose ourselves to the wrong person, but the inner self does not make such mistakes. When it decides to reveal itself, it chooses rightly, leaving no room for regret. And when the self finally accepts exposure, it does so on a grand scale—bringing truth, clarity, and transformation.
