When do you actually realise that your life is empty ? When
you don’t have places to go ? When you are out of things to do ? When you have
no one to talk to ?
I spent the whole day doing nothing, absolutely nothing. I
woke up. I tried to watch T.V. but there wasn’t anything that could keep me
glued on. I tried to listen to music on my phone. That didn’t work. I tried to
watch a movie on my laptop. I fell asleep after the first 5 minutes of ‘THE DARK
KNIGHT’. Not my fault. Not batman’s either. So i just lay on my bed looking at
the ceiling. Only a gap through the
ventilation system let inside a small ray of sunlight.
I rapidly searched through my phone list, but there was no
one who i wanted to call. I guess no one wanted to call me also. Not once has
my phone rung today. Compared to the millions of calls i was got yesterday
because of a problem that happened in college. These kind of things just leave
you wondering.
“ Will no one miss me when i am not around ? “
“Will i be like this forever ? “
I thought of every possible scenario where i could be doing
something that i would enjoy. It turned out that all these day-dreams ended
right where it started. The view of the ceiling.
I am in no mood to share anything, but writing this is the only thing that is keeping me occupied right now.
So people who are reading this, do you really want to be
reading my blog or go do something else that you have always wanted ?
So what
are you waiting for ?
The ceiling up there and the shaft of light! That, you might not yet know,is yourself. Perhaps the greatest need for man, and yet the one most of us shy away from, is the enjoyment of solitude. Most people are afraid of solitude, which is actually different from loneliness. Once you discover the way to change loneliness into solitude, there is no stopping. The best company one can get is oneself! As one who have known the pleasure and pain of being alone, let me tell you - enjoy being with yourself; that is a gift only few people are endowed with. It is in solitude, in being reflective, that the fountain of creativity bursts forth. Get wet in the shower of solitude! It is not the time to despair, it is the time to bloom! Great writing style. Good luck!
