I am not someone who discusses his life very much, but Kanye west is my favourite artist. Yes, by favourite I mean that I favour him over other artists, particularly musicians who pretend to represent a culture or an ideology but would be the first to turn their backs, when the going gets tough. Now there are two reasons why you should care. Firstly, I have Black skinhead on loud while I'm writing this, hence the constant aggression and also because Kanye has managed to achieve at a world stage, which resides in all of our guilty pleasures, attract haters. 

Why do I support a narcissistic, selfish, unthankful human being who never fails to complain about his surroundings? Because I too believe that personal satisfaction is as incremental to personal growth as oxygen is to breathing. No doubt, that we only get what we deserve and success in any sphere of life is related to opportunity and fate, but it's not a sin to want better, or to believe in yourself. A common misconception about wealthy who desire more is that they are insensitive to their surroundings, but even being young and someone who does not have much money at his disposal I completely believe that passion or ambition cannot be monetised, your dreams are separate are from your wealth. How many wealthy people in Pakistan, are actually intellectuals, inventors or creators? I completely agree that our 9-5 should consist of work that we need to do in order to survive, but it certainly does not mean that that is out only space to let out our creativity and to be boxed down as someone who can only do that. I'm a working man, and I can assure like many other men that I can do better, but our life is not always on our hand unfortunately, we have external forces who persistently control our life one way or the other. 

I guess what I'm trying to say is that we are no one to judge someone's thought or ideologies, because deep down in our. Fixed patterned life there is always something different that we would have what'd to do, or there are things we would wanted to have if we were given the opportunity. Like racism, sexism, classism I'm coining a new term called opportunism, which means that all of us deserve an opportunity to speak our heart out and be respected for what we believe in and be supported through it not necessarily and action, but even by acknowledgement of ones believes and hopes. Evolution is possible through growth and ideas, and someone of us just need a pat on the shoulder to change the world. So next time you hear kanye rant, tell him that he can actually, do it give him that opportunity let him design and act and sign and produce and whatever, and if he fails than quite simply, he'll know! 

If your have brothers, sisters, friends who think differently than have the decency to at least look at things from their perspective and try to support them through their endeavours, because every time they fail, they'll be one step close to success. And next time someone tells u that you're gonna be finished or destroyed, than just remember life is too short, none of it is gonna last anyway! 

Keep praying
Keep believing 

Keep loving
