Anonymously Visible

Sounds like an oxymoron. It is an oxymoron.  But much more than an oxymoron.  It is a state of mind. More a in between. Between anonymity and visibility. But closer to anonymity. With visibility an alluring option.

Is anonymously visible possible in a world driven by the naked lust for attention, money and power? I think it is. It is about stepping back and looking at the larger picture. It is like being detached while being attached to the formulae that cripple us to such an extent that we run the rat race just like the others. We are so crippled that we refuse to step out and create our own starting block.

Fear grips us. What if we are alone on the road we have dared to create? What if we fail? What if we become anonymous? But that’s only one side of the story. There is another side. We may be anonymous but we are visible. People notice us.

Anonymous visibility is better than forced visibility. The former is looking into the beautiful eyes of invisibility. The latter is not being able to see eye-to-eye with the very people we are running with.
