Read “The Siren Call“ by Sowmya Udupa on Medium: https://medium.com/@sowmya.udupa/the-siren-call-3d29c76588fb

On the black rocks I sat.

There was no wind—nothing to soften the thrashing of the ocean.

Only the relentless rhythm of waves crashing, a stormy clap that echoed inside my chest.

I was confused, restless, hurting— a coliseum of chaos within me.

I sat amidst the mist and breeze, and through the shifting veil, I saw the peak of the mountain— steadfast, serene, majestic. It didn’t resist the mist. It simply stood. And as I watched, more and more of it revealed itself.

With tears rolling down my cheeks, I whispered, “Why can’t I be like you? Steady. Calm. Patient.”

And in the stillness, I heard the mountain reply, “Why can’t I be like you? Free to run, to dance with the wind, to move with wild abandon— a kaleidoscope of emotions and experiences.”

The human mind doesn’t merely strive for growth; it craves perfection. It wants to become a flawless, omnipotent being. Instead of honoring the natural order, where every living thing has its role, its rhythm, its rightful place in the symphony of life—we want to rise above it all. We want to conquer. This isn’t evolution. It’s ego.
