Birth and the beginnings are incredible experiences for humans. As much as we know the inevitability of death, we don’t celebrate the randomness of the births.
Every year, there are so many children born all over the world, but mostly their families celebrate. But that’s all. Birth and Death are very similar, probably the opposing sides of the same coin. When we are born, we know nothing. When we will die, whatever we know will be meant nothing. The cycle starts from nothing and ends with nothingness. Everything that happens in between is all about the perspective you give to it.
The experiences that we go through in this cycle make life unique. Cherish those moments.
Every new birth is reviewing the story from the third-person perspective. Most of us probably don’t remember our own births and whatever happened from that moment till we started to understand things around us. But when we see the birth of a child, we recognize every small thing and how the child starts perceiving the world around it.
Open your own heart, learn new things, embrace reality. Be present. When you see the new born, they absorb everything. They learn and grow. Growth happens when you learn. That’s the major lesson here.
As a writer, you should continually adapt and learn as much as you can. Writing like births is born with every new chapter you write. Experiment with it, mold it the way you want. Be free of rules. Break the existing rules. At the end, you will only be able to learn more when you jump off a cliff.
“First you jump off the cliff and you build your wings on the way down” – Ray Bradbury
In short, let the birth and the beginnings be a good lesson of life and also the major one.
