I realised that I mostly update my blog whenever I face internal struggles. Yes, the same internal struggles which have been bothering me since I started understanding life.
"Alif", a famous blockbuster drama serial aired on Geo TV, Pakistan from October, 2019 till March, 2020 gained popularity among the public due to its unique script and plot. Romance and spirituality (two prime themes of the serial) apart; when one watches this serial repeatedly, the deeper themes can be grasped. Internal struggle is one such element very well portrayed in the serial.
Background soundtracks of this serial are one component which always attracts me and I always wondered why. Today, while watching the serial for the nth number of time, I realised that probably the background music in most of the scenes signal towards the emotional battles within a person and thats the reason why it appeals me.
I feel internal struggle is something very difficult to overcome in life specially if one is an over sensitive person or someone dominated primarily by emotions. Such struggles can be persuit of spirituality; striving to stay on the right path; battle against emotional trauma and pain; and overcoming the pain of losing the desired things, bonds or people in life.
These are just few internal struggles. Every person may have different internal struggles. Someone may contradict with my statement that these internal struggles are difficult for emotional people. I say this because I feel that the mind and heart are at constant battle throughout the life in terms of decisions and struggles. For people dominated by mind, decision making is easier and therefore the emotional pain and suffering can easily be receded. However, for the emotionally driven people, this war within is tough and never-ending.
