Friend.
Somebody who shares with you.
Somebody who listens to you.
Somebody who annoys you.
Somebody who consoles you.
And Somebody who can bring a smile on your face.
World is a place to grow with different people around us. And the one who influences us the most are either our Best Friends or our Worst Enemies.
Last week was a week full of confrontations, confessions, confusions and lots of conversations with the Lost Old Good Friends.
For quite a while I was lost in my world of problems ; Family, Friends, Future, Career, Job, Friendships, Relationships ,... the list is endless.
Questions of where am I leading to in my aimless direction wandered into my tiny brain! Disappointed with my helplessness for the situation i started feeling that I lead the worst life ever!
Regardless of what I wish to do, there were always ifs & buts hovering around all my aspirations. Comparing with what my peers showcased about their life , I always had a feeling that m not as lucky as others or mabbe not as determined as others..
People around me apparently had more happening life, apparently had a aim in life and some apparently had love of their life. I wished and prayed to grow for better.
Ultimately, I broke down!
Hands Up! I had to confront to my dearies that something is being missed. I had to Confess that I feel jealous. The air of confusion had blown my mind away.
And Finally, Family and Friends had a Face Off with the insecure side of me.
I never wanted to sound like a cry-baby. Neither did I wish to sack up sympathy. All I wanted was a Direction to head ahead.
Surprisingly with such honest confrontation, the dogmatic family highly concerned with my security seem to understand my inquisitive behaviour to grow more , to know more.
And More Surprisingly, the elite peer group modestly confessed that they are no different from me. The problems i face are no different from what they have gone through or are going through.
Somehow this calmed me down. Suddenly i realize we all in our early twenty-ish something are sailing on the same boat. Its just that, to direct this boat you need to paddle smartly. Waves might just push you away but the fun lies there when you be a rebel to face what come may and head towards what you picture as a Better Life!
I didn't get a direction, yet I perceived that the decision lies with me!
The Face Off! between my fears and my desires finally knocked out! Calming and yet keeping me at toes to choose for what i want!
