"Certain things are seriously out of control. For instance it is not possible to make people be affectionate to you, it has to come naturally. You can't stop your exams. You can’t stop getting hurt or being ill. And the list is endless.
It is not always easy to follow the 90 / 10 principle. Though of course your logical mind is always in support of that concept
Probably I never gave it a thought when someone told me how they had unwittingly done something and it back fired. Take for instance how you would feel if people mistook your intentions. Some times you just don't have the choice. Remember the Harry potter lines- "there always comes a situation where you have to choose between what is easy and what is right." And if you have done the right thing there is nothing to regret.
How it would be when you know that the very few things which you felt close to your heart is being ripped away from you. You cannot control it going away because till now it was only you who was holding it.
It is like trying to save a box of ice standing in the hot sun. How much ever you hold it close, how much ever you hold it tight it’s going to fall away from you. You stand alone. The very same hands which held the cube of ice has gone numb. You neither realize its presence nor its absence. But you only know one thing for sure the one you held has left a mark of presence. But the numbness does not stay long. As it is said time is the best healer of the worst tragedy.
Some times you just realize that things are not the way you want.
Sometimes you are met with cold indifference and neglect. It is very obvious and your logical mind deciphers it. But that emotional side of your mind denies accepting the obvious. Now why this happens? Even your self respect seems to be bit less important in the wake of all these emotions. You go around again begging for others time, care and affection and convince yourself that you are as important as they are to you."
Well does this all sound depressing enough! Well these are some thoughts which just can happen to any of us anytime.
We get depressed when we cannot talk to those to whom we want to talk to or we cannot find anyone who can just listen. Well why does this happen. Often we restrict our circle of choice when it comes to talking. We often run behind people who can't find time for us and we end up having no time for those who want to talk to us. And one can never be satisfied if they have to beg for things which they should naturally get. Perhaps you can never make people find time for you.
For all those who crave for some ears to listen walk into an old age home... See them and talk to them instead of begging those who cannot find time for you.
I tell you the experience is truly inspiring. They are waiting for those who can listen to them and they are too willing to give their time and listen to your pointless stories...
Enjoy with those friends who are ready to spend time with you. And if at all you are caught in some situation, when you feel lonely walk into an old age home.
That emotion which you feel when you don't have anyone to talk to might be occasional and be there for a short duration to you, considering the fact that we are in the era of technology. And the one whom you would be meeting there are the people who go through it every moment of their last stage of life. By giving them your time you really make some difference in their life and yours too.
And for all those who have grand parents at home please spend time with them before going to old age homes.
As Mother Teresa Said, “It is easy to love the people far away. It is not always easy to love those close to us. It is easier to give a cup of rice to relieve hunger than to relieve the loneliness and pain of someone unloved in our own home. Bring love into your home for this is where our love for each other must start.”
