From a young age, I’ve been deeply fascinated by human nature. I observed people closely—how they think, behave, and respond to life—but I struggled to make sense of it all until I studied psychology. That’s when things began to connect, and I could finally understand human behavior with clarity, context, and reason.

One insight that stood out through all my observations is this: insecurity—especially financial insecurity—drives much of human behavior. In fact, I believe many of the societal structures we live within—like religion, caste, and gender roles—are built around this core fear. The idea that “our people will protect us” gives rise to these divisions, even if they no longer serve us.

Two troubling truths about human society have stayed with me over the years.
First, we fear change, even when it harms us. Take dowry practices, gender discrimination, or inequality. Despite the pain and injustice they cause—especially to women—they continue, often unchallenged. Even our basic lifestyles and systems resist improvement, and I’ve always wondered why we don’t fix what clearly isn’t working.

Second, humans often gravitate towards conflict, division, and destruction—even when it comes at great personal cost. Violence and hatred are still normalized, while peace and cooperation are sidelined, even though we all stand to benefit from the latter.

I’ve always believed that if we truly acknowledged life for what it is, and understood human nature more deeply, we could create better relationships, better systems, and a better society.

When you think about it, we only need a few essentials to live well: food, shelter, clothing, relationships, education, healthcare, jobs, transportation, waste management, and care in old age. Most of these can be managed locally with smart thinking and community effort. With capable governance, these ten areas alone could generate the majority of jobs and improve lives dramatically.

But instead of focusing on this, society often chooses to uphold inequality, discrimination, corruption, and fear. And this, I believe, is what turns life into a daily struggle for many.

My writings reflect this perspective: what would our world look like if we solved our problems smartly and with respect for human nature? I hope my thoughts help people reflect, rethink, and maybe even reimagine what’s possible.
