Until......
I take a deep breath. I still cannot smile. The fact
that I am doing well academically does not make me feel good about my life. I
decided that I would not write something that is disturbing me ever on my blog.
But, I think instead of not having any feelings, it is better to have some
negative feelings.
It is during these negative times that I think very
much in existential manner. Who am I? Why am I here? Was there even a reason
behind my birth? Does God exist? Does he see me? Does he feel it sad when I feel
sad and lonely? So many questions keep on attending the loneliness seminar
going on in my mind that I cannot even count them. I just let them come as the
entry is free and the questions do not give a damn even when the guards tell
them not to enter. The biggest issue is that they return unanswered with faces
that show clear dissatisfaction. They attend the workshops of unhappiness, frustration,
too. They do not get tired even though I end the workshop sometimes, to be calm
and at peace.
The strong urge of telling something deep to someone
close rises at such times. I try to contact someone or the other to just tell
whatever I am feeling. What happens then? Everyone is busy or just not there. I
just let the feelings be there. They accompany me for quite some time. Then, I do
something and literally escape into work. This means that I did not get a
chance to share whatever I felt for however brief time. Sometimes, people do
answer my calls and they do ask why I am sounding low. I talk to them about
everything but what is bothering me. Then, these feelings accumulate. Though I do
not nurture them I am most of the times unable to remove them completely.
This usually happens when I have a great news to
share and there is no one to cheer ‘Hurray!’ with me. Either everyone is busy
or not in the mood to celebrate. I am happy about the small achievements in my
life. But, when there is no one to share those small moments, I feel incredibly
lonely and all my enthusiasm and happiness starts eating me inside. It turns
into equal amount of loneliness. I sit with myself becoming my own counselor,
mother, friend, and even GOD sometimes. I hug myself. I cry and I console
myself. It goes on like two people in one person. One of them is sad and the
other offers anything and everything he has.
Then, the nurturing self decides that it is enough. There
are people with more problems. It is fine that one was sad but one has so many
things to do and they are waiting to be done. So, I drag myself to work on
something and everything is normal.
Until one more small happiness that turns into
sadness………..
