Irrespective of the age today’s day the
biggest defence mechanism. “I will do away with my life; I will be done with
all these worries, pain and problems”. Now the question is “whether is it
normal to think so? Are we abnormal??”
But then what we fail
to realise that actually when that thought comes and we give in for some time and
then we are living the next day. Sublimely we have ignored that the effort we
take to live that next moment has actually killed that negative in you and you
have lived through. “U, won the battle”.
This though doesn’t come
coz we are weak, it comes when u think Ur weak. A thought makes u weak, so feel
good; this is the difference we need to find out between our feelings and
thinking.
Our thoughts and
feelings when they are not in congruence we feel sad. We all how much ever we
may deny we have two voice within us. They are at war with each other, and its
our responsibility to strike a balance and homogeneity.
Now how do we know,
what we are feeling and thinking? There is a line which i hug close to my heart
“emotions – YES; emotional drama – NO”. I shall say u a small anecdote; Janaki a friend of mine, once i was at her
place to bond over a cup of coffee. She was placed the vessel with milk on the
stove and we were lost in our conversation. After few in we heard a loud cry
from the kitchen, it was her husband “Janu the milk has over flown.... Why are
u so careless?” janaki rushed to the kitchen i followed. Janaki’s response shook
for i was sure the way her husband yelled at her, knowing her i felt she would
yell back. But she just looked at him and said “I am also seeing that the milk
has over flown, and then will ur yelling at me fill the vessel with milk? No right!!!
Then why blow ur lungs out at me?” her husband looked at her and just left in
silence.
Now we are also
overcome with emotions and give into them that is why our rationality is
overcome by emotions. Janu was very careful after that episode she learnt
something, not only learning she has remembered her learning and applied it. Thus
due to stressful situations or lack of resources narrowing down we think of
giving up and come to a non functional stage. When hopeless feeling, and
helpless thinking combine they give way to the unforgivable sin. We are all beautiful
creatures, a one time chance to live it up... as i always say.. life is too
short for anything to remain constantly in life... “CHANGE IS THE VERY ESSENCE
OF LIFE” embrace it.. -maya
Good one!!! :)
ReplyDeleteto die seams like the easiest way out of every problem, the more we dwell on this thought, the more number of times it occurs to us. The way out is to remind our self every time that it nothing but a cowardly thought. we may not be able to completely get rid of this thought, but we can certainly choose not to make it the most significant one in our head!!
