The Quiet Funeral of Your Potential

 It feels good, doesn’t it?

To do nothing.
To lie down, grab a slice of pizza, sip a cold drink, munch on snacks, dim the lights, and lose yourself in a gripping thriller. One episode after another, the story pulls you in, and you’re loving every minute of it.

But while you’re enjoying yourself, something is quietly dying.

It’s your dreams.

They’re gasping for air—thirsty for your action, your consistency, your dedication. Instead, you starve them of the attention they deserve, while feeding your time to things that bring no real value to your life. You live in an illusion of pleasure and an inflated self-image, convincing yourself you’re “doing okay,” when deep down, you know the truth—you’re just avoiding the work.

You are enslaved by laziness, paralyzed by comfort, and frozen by habits that slowly poison your life and choke your potential.

Pleasure, in itself, is not wrong. In fact, it’s what we all seek. But when pleasure comes at the cost of your dreams, it turns into poison. Procrastinating when you should be taking action… drifting when you should be focused… letting destructive habits control you while knowing they’re destroying you—this is self-sabotage in its purest form.

One day, time will run out. Your dream will die—not in flames, not buried underground—but in silence, from neglect. And when it’s gone, you’ll try to justify it with excuses, but deep down you’ll know the truth: you killed it.

You’ll be just like the crowd—another below-average soul who never rose to meet their potential, who underperformed, who chose aimless scrolling, binge eating, and fake comfort over real growth.

The cruel irony? That same comfort will become your torment. Because when dreams die, they don’t disappear—they haunt you. They wrap around your life as guilt, as a shattered self-image, and as a recurring pattern of mediocrity that infects everything you do.

The choice is yours:
Pain now, and glory later.
Or comfort now, and a suffocating life forever.

Why do you want a relationship?

Sitting today and remembering some of my friends saying that they want to be in relationship with someone , they want to have someone who really makes them feel special , they want someone who shares a certain level of intimacy and also the level of significance with them and what else the favorite line of every teenager slipped from their tongue "man, i want a relationship"!   . so my this blog is featuring to unlock the real question that is relationship a need or an exaggerated emotion and i will unlock the real reason which pulls people to fall into one.
