Instinctive Thrills

Breaking rules is long since known to drug a person, with an elevated sense of being. That feeling holds a dangerous tendency of getting addicted to that state of mind. The trigger is the drive for escapism. The deviation helps living beings to discover a host of skills, places, people, and opportunities. They’re not ready to face the perceived consequences of facing it head-on. They detest focusing on a single route alone, in a disciplined manner as they see it as the path that is binding; curtailing them. They think it restricts their developmental, explorative, creative spirit. They’re restless and need the reins of their life in their own hands. They despise boundaries. Procrastination, disobeying orders, delaying the prospect of responsibility, and denying the truth are some indicators of someone absconding. Detested and rejected by those following a discipline, a linear life path set within the boundaries in an organized society to be socially accepted; people who call themselves and are called normal by others; detest and keep their distance from absconders. Perhaps out of envy or fear of being tarnished by others for associating with these eccentrics. The oddballs are courageous to create their own rulebook and life. They are the leaders, the creators, and they are standalone in their beliefs and deeds. They are indifferent to what others think. Like a thunderbolt—unexpected and spontaneous—their actions are inconceivable and unpredictable by commoners.
