I always end up making a fool of myself. Funny how despite knowing the follies of the heart, I dive right into another situation thats going to break my heart.

Maybe the poets were right when they said, love isn’t for the weak, not because it hurts, but because one has to deal with the pain long after he accepts the reality of it(the love).

And in the end the question remains,

Does caring for the right people make you strong or does it make you weak?

“You always end up liking people who won’t like you back”

But what does one do when he has already fallen in that kind of love? I think over time, after enduring a lot of pain, you learn to make peace with it. It hurts every now and then, but eventually, you learn to make peace with the pain. Like okay, you can stay(the pain), but I am not letting you bother me with the same intensity that you did a while back.

Isn’t that what the optimists call growth?

Ps: Optimists have a strange ability to influence even the most staunch sadists.

God I wish the mind was more powerful than the heart.

to sit in a place of solitude with someone willing to listen to you, to understand you, to hold you and to comfort your heart and mind from the constant tussle they are at; 

Isn’t that what one wants after all?

Nothing’s been on track lately, this feeling of being fucked up, mentally, emotionally is a difficult one to fathom. Why is life so good sometimes ,and in the midst of it all, it throws a ball of fire to burn down even the tiniest piece of the happy puzzle you built over time with such dedication and effort ? Thats the way of life Grey , is what people tell me, (been hearing that for a long time) , I know its the fucking way of life ,you go through ups and downs, but has anyone really taught us to tackle these downs in a proper manner, or is this concept just about sharing a quote by some person to make you feel good for a second maybe and then not teaching you how to actually implement the teachings of the quote, I am pretty sure this is the case. I am guilty of this too, of throwing lines and quotes at my friends and loved ones telling them this too shall pass, when I myself do not know what to do when times get hard. The ultimate hypocrisy it seems. You are not the only one to go through these things Grey, look at other people Grey, they have it much worse than you. Bullshit. What does my grief have to do with anyone else’s. Everyone has their own battles to fight, and in my opinion these can’t be won by telling people to take it easy because others have battles that are harder to fight. How can these be won then ? Honestly I don’t have an answer to this nor am I an expert to comment on such delicate things but I am free to express as to do what I do in such difficult times. I switch off. Mentally. I become oblivious to everything, I just dont care what hell fire is raining around me and continue to go on with my life,working, hoping, and constant hoping that everything will be back on track ,when ? I don’t know. Its hard, really hard , because at this moment you don’t have the sole burden of your problems but the anxiety and fear that comes with it. The fact is, at one point you realise that you do not have a better option than to just let all go and be oblivious.

And it does get back on track always, doesn’t it..? (ofc it is hard to accept this when we are right at the centre of hard times, hence the rant above 🫠) but as time passes , it actually does get better , despite all odds, the sun rises. Such is I guess the beauty of life, that at moments you hate it so much that you feel its a dead end, but deep deep down you know , life will find a way, we may not accept it but we know it. And I guess that’s what keeps us going. Maybe that’s why they just tell us about these quotes and phrases to let us explore their complexity and figure out this concept of not giving up and believing that everything does get better with time. Its all about hanging in there and trying to tackle our obstacles to our best capacity. Life rewards you for trying maybe, it becomes happy upon watching you give your very best. That’s life☯️
