In my soul searching struggle for self realization and all that crap,I just dawned upon me that I've been doing it all wrong.Somewhere,I got de-railed and didn't even know. I've been spending time with myself, alone, trying to come up with answers that just weren't there because I was alone.I was just too blind to see that most of my problems actually stemmed from me being alone.I'm much more of a people person that I thought I was.I've always thought that I was one of those people that could spend hours upon days upon weeks by myself, without taking a break and hanging out with my friends and the people I care about. I've come to realize that this is why in some of my darkest hours I couldn't console or fix myself; because I was going about it alone. I never asked for help. I never called up anyone just to hang out or chat about something, to take my mind off of how low I was feeling.i didn't realize that what i was feeling at those times was even loneliness. I just thought there was something wrong with me and I didn't want to bother the people around me with my problems. Now I know that my friends and family are there for me, they want to help me in my hours of need. They don't want me to be lonely if they can do anything about it. Until now, I had never realized that the people i love are way more important to my sanity than i had ever thought possible and now I know I've been taking them for granted entirely too much. Well, never again.
I think I now have a glimpse of what I was looking for all along.Well,atleast the right direction.

Its fine to feel alone, n fact, its good to feel alone once in a while. The worst thing, may be, is to deal with real loneliness, when you know there wont be anyone for you even if you want them to. If you can get over that, and if you learn to be happy when alone, nothing else would really matter.
ReplyDeleteYou can trust me on THIS.
:)
ReplyDeleteI think I can handle a healthy balance of "me" time and people-time.
:D
ReplyDeleteHi Hi... I did not, raise a doubt on your ability to have a good balance !!!
And yes, I forgot I was commenting on a post by a teenager.. :D :P:P
I know.Just confirming.:P..
ReplyDelete'post by a teenager'??whats that supposed to mean?:D
"post by a teenager" meant post written by a girl who is in her teenage .. :P (wasnt that obvious??)
ReplyDeleteSO, a comment to a teenage girl, as per rule, should not contain any advices (as they (teenagers) hate them), should not contain philosophy about life (They have a totally different outlook than someone whos out of teenage), and they hardly saw life, because they are almost always protected and taken care of by their family, and they really doesnt know what it is all about living on their own..
That was a long statement, i guess :P
