At times you are amongst a crowd, you are surrounded by some of the best people you have met in your life, people whom you call your friends, family or colleagues yet you feel as if you are amongst strangers. Sometimes you feel that they are poles apart in the way they think, converse and perceive, it is so different then your perspective, manner and you fail to bond with them, u feel suffocated being with them, you consider running away, knowing for sure that its as impossible as watching the rays of sun along with the white light of moon. Yet you feel like putting all this behind and going to some place where you know no one, and nobody recognizes you.
Is it your fault that you fail to connect with these people in those specific situations or are you different, you are someone you yourself are trying to figure out, its not that these people changed overnight but its you who is failing to recognize your true identity.
We put so many masks on our face just to be a part of something we know we were never made to associate with but then we don’t have any option but to curb these thoughts and carry on with what we have been doing for so long, that is compromising with the circumstances and people around, that we forget our true being, our individuality, we feel lost in the darkness of the night with no moon to guide us through.
These moments are what we should use as a wake up call to face the reality and realise, that although we have been bending our beliefs, our values and ourselves so much that now we have forgotten to stand firm. But the time has come when we should start questioning what all we have been forcing our conscience to believe, its time we realise our true being, no matter what how long we have been curbing our inner voice or running away from the reality of life. Its a harsh and bitter truth which is hard to swallow and harder to digest.
Who are we deceiving, who are we trying to dupe, who is the one at loss? Its no one else but us...
in order to be famous, to be talked about, to be called successful and popular, we learn to compromise so much that we cant even think of going back at that juncture where we first made the decision of binding our soul and giving our voice to someone else's thoughts...
all that is gained, achieved or accomplished by such a life is hallow with its roots effected by the termites of lies, hatred and selfishness, it will fall apart with one tide of truth, yet we try to believe in something we don’t trust, we accept as truth the false image of what we know as achievements of a successful man.
We should take the call and break the shackles before moths that will insert the seed of hatred and selfishness in our conscience.
