I feel paranoid right now. I’m unsure about whether my posting will somehow make the world feel I’m sad or depressed. If yes, what will happen then. What will change. How will people look at me. Will they console me, but I don’t want to be consoled. If I just had a puppy maybe my sadness won’t be as bad? I need a puppy, but I don’t have the time for one. Nor the place. I need time and I don’t seem to have it. I need money but I only seem to blow it away on frivolous stuff.
And here I’m trying to make up things and trying to find love. Today after listening to a very powerful poetry by Sabrina Benaim, where she says poignantly, everyone loves me but nobody is in love with me. If I post this, will they know I’m mourning a breakup? Will they even care? My mirror is a judgemental self that I look others through, a friend of mine who does that a lot. He is lucky to have his life in order or is it that, it’s due to me that my life isn’t in order?
This is another shout into the void it seems, with nothing gained or lost. Is the shout into the void by itself worth it? Yes and no. Inspire of everything I want someone to find this, just to make sure my experiences mattered. Life makes you feel insignificant. I need to find the energy to go through the motions. I need to find the time to get things in order. Nothing has blown over yet, I have to learn a lot and I have to gain a lot.
And yet I stand transfixed with my experiences amounting to nothing. I look at the trailer of the movie based on Emily Dickens life and I’m ported to another space inside of me that feels empty. It’s a nagging hole and it won’t be filled by someone else, I will need to do it all on my own.
As I see it, people will always be judgemental. Even your friends all the more so. In the end, whatever you do, it doesn’t matter. You can be good to people and people will be fake to you. The way I see it, people pretend all the time. And it’s bad to see myself in a place surrounded by people who don’t care... or maybe they do and I can’t see it.
I feel paranoid because I try to give the benefit of the doubt to everyone. And the thing is, things are not bad around me. But they aren’t good either.
