So one more year past! I hear this saying very
often “With age comes wisdom, but sometimes the age comes alone”. I hope I did
gain some wisdom though. I learnt about life and I learnt about myself too.
About life, well, at the crux of it all there
are just these few lines
When life gives you a tight slap on your face,
don’t sit and cry over it. Don’t let it dare to give you another. Being a cry
baby will not help you. Rather, Get up, get dressed and slap your life back by
choosing to be happy. May come whatever, don’t give up your happiness. Your smile is your most precious jewel and
your most deadly weapon too. With this weapon alone, you can defeat life in its
game. If you learn the art of using this weapon, life will no longer dare to
mess with you.
About me, well, there is a hell lot!
I am one of those people, who need excusive kind
of attention from people. I mean, not from all of them, but from those whom I allow
to be close to me. And that being said, it happens, most of the times that I actually
do not get that. Because of this reason, I get distant from people very easily.
That might be my weakness, but I have figured that I don’t want to change this
thing about myself. I don’t want a lot many people in my life. Only a few on
whom I can have the exclusive rights and who love me to the extent of bearing
with me at my worst are enough for me.
The other day, somebody called me a Psycho. I
don’t know or rather I couldn’t understand whether there was any pun intended. Now,
THAT is the trouble with me. I take such opinions into consideration which I should
not. Why? Because I know myself much more deeply than anyone who just knows me
on a superficial level. And my life and my belief system are founded on what I have
experienced in life. Nobody else knows my life and nobody else has lived it. They
may have a right to opinion but the right to accept or out rightly reject that
opinion lies with me and only me.
I am not one of those people who are afraid of
being alone. Honestly, I have seen people kind of obsessed with this fear of
being alone or living alone. Well! I am not one of those people. I love my own
company and I don’t get bored of myself. Sometimes, I hear people telling me
that one should marry because one can’t live alone whole life. Yes, I hear such
people and not listen to them, because I don’t consider such opinions worth
listening to. A relation of a lifetime should not be based on a fear alone. I
don’t believe that one should settle down with a life partner for all the wrong
reasons. Right reasons are in my opinion as important as the right person.
Nutshell..
I am still trying to understand myself and my life and will keep doing
that my entire life….
