A conversation

Tears, what do they mean.
Nothing, tears are a sign of helplessness. when one gets overwhelmed by something they don't want to do anything about, they cry, or by something we cannot do anything about, like death, heartbreak, loosing something one never wanted to loose, being someone one never wanted to be.

What is helplessness
it is just a feeling, we say we are helpless because we want to be helpless. We feel helpless when faced with options which we think are not fair to us, we feel helpless when life doesn't turn out the way we expected it to.

What is life
Life is a bundle of options, choices that you make every moment, millions of choices that you made all through your life, that is what decides what you are today. There are two ways to live life, live it as it comes, plan it. If we live life as it comes, the factor of chance increases manifold, we will choose the first available option or the most pleasurable option, but the foresight is not there. If we plan, we loose a whole lot of moments that would have been worth living.
