Gone Fishing

Oh dear! It has been exactly two months since I've returned to my blog. I have nothing much to update here. I have vowed to stay away from unhappy things. That means ...

... no opinion on:

1. Politics! Current situations and policies make me unhappy. Hence, no comment.
“Politics, n: Poly "many" + tics "blood-sucking parasites”

2. Friends - fair-weathered ones.
"Do not make someone a priority in your life when you are only an option in theirs"

I am happily involved with my favourite all-time game on Facebook - Farm Town. The other games on FB are just to fill in time while I wait for crops to grow, facilities to produce and Farm Town developers to keep upgrading. :)

I am also enjoying the weather now. Finally, thawed myself out after a long winter.

I will be back soon ... hmmm... ok, probably in about a month or two.

"GONE FISHING"


HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY USA!

Loneliness



“The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.” - Mother Teresa

Seems like even though you know that you are loved most of the times, there are times when loneliness sets in and you feel unloved. Everyone is so busy with their lives that you think you don't exist to anyone. You want to reach out to someone, then you change your mind because you feel you might be imposing on them or you are just too embarass to admit you need someone. It gets frustrating because you just don't have anyone to talk to and you start feeling so hopeless and crushed. You feel you cannot breathe because that feeling of loneliness is so stifling. Then you just stay there with laboured breath waiting for someone to notice and pick you up. Sadly, sometimes, no one cares. You feel rejected when they reach out to people who seem to not need it. They go merrily on their way not noticing that you are now curled on the floor with no more strength to ask for help.

Then suddenly something inside you jolts you to reality. The survivor in you tells you that you have to pick yourself up and say "this too shall pass". You realise for others to reach out to you, you must first reach out to them but you cannot possibly do that when you are feeling so down. So, you have to cast that low feeling aside. And then you say your first hello after that dark episode with that person not knowing what pain you just went through because it has passed.

“We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.” - Orson Welles
