Emotions? Error 404 not found.

Info

“Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. ”

― Simone Weil.

If only attachments were as easy as adding or discarding a file in our mail composition!

But nope, attachments are the wallow baggage we carry everyday. This isn't about you being clingy or a sign of weakness. But the less these attachments the more it is to fulfill yourself. Yes, i am more of an emotionally detached person myself. But again that doesn't mean i am stone-hearted or cruel and laugh sheepishly at someone's expense ( which sometimes we all do). It's that aspect of your life, where you couldn't care less about anyone other than you. 

Showcasing your emotions to the world at large will only make you more miserable. And that's the very truth. Updating your whatsapp story with a hell of an emotional quote- bashing out your frustration as your facebook status or be it a simple tweet for regression, such will only attract the vulnerability towards you. Go for a smaller circle instead. Talk to your friend about it or share it with your "go-to person", let it out with that person himself to let go of all  the uninviting questions towards you.

Attention is all what we want and we crave for.  Sadly everyone falls prey to it. And me being no different, sometimes opt for the above mentioned things. You know what the amusing part is, everyone will see you struggling but only a handful will lend you a helping hand. Everyone will see you happy, but only few will truly celebrate it with you instead of making irrational comments about your life. In today's terms- everyone will keep an eye on your stories and updates, but only few will chose to take some time out to call or text you.

I've had enough regrets in my life, but that's how you learn. Try to go out for an adventure all by yourself or perhaps watch a movie alone. Visit your favorite spot in the city and tell no one about it. Live outside the box, cause normal is boring. I know some might have a different opinion about celebrating life, but this one is mine. Hope you understand.

Lastly, quoting something so ideal to what i think of-

“If you truly want to be respected by people you love, you must prove to them that you can survive without them.”

― Michael Bassey Johnson, The Infinity Sign.

Wow! Thank you for saying what I couldn't say to myself. Indeed, this is very true. If we hold on to people, the more they will run away from you. I've had my share of attachments - attachments that I still struggle till now. It's far from easy but I continue waking up everyday and refrain myself from contacting the person or using my facebook account to tell the world my personal passion and insights. I don't have to regularly update my social media accounts to keep the world, who doesn't even care, updated. Thanks!
Welcome dear, hope you are doing well. Life is too short to be clingy or rigorously keep waiting for someone. I'm glad you liked it.
