Some things should come with rear view mirror! They are actually closer to you than they appear.

So, I was talking about identifying the right thing! How difficult is that? In this era of digitalization, we all have two faces. One we showcase on social media and another we are in reality. So accustomed with photo filters we are so uncomfortable showing the real ‘us’. Who on earth looks like fresh drop of dew in such humid summer afternoon? That too directly under the sun! And those unnecessary pouts, spare me! And then how one can feel ‘delighted’ with 50 people he/she rarely knows according to their social media status? People go out with friends and put a status that they are enjoying. Really? If one had been really enjoying he would give a damn to put a status. Why are we showing off that we are having a good time or good life? What for? Are we so depressed that we are trying to convince ourselves that we have things of joy in our lives?

We are a generation socially connected but detached from within. And there lies the confusion, the ‘may be’. We are confused about what we portray and what we are. It’s fine if you do not have too many friends to hang out with, it’s fine if you hate to socialize, it’s fine if you are not comfortable to drink in a party, it’s fine if you can’t make happy each and everyone, it’s fine to detach yourself from the rest of the world for sometime, it’s fine to cry at night, it’s fine to state your mind loud and clear, it’s fine not to be fine all the time.

So, coming out of the shell is the best way. Let’s face it, you cannot impress every kind of people around you. In fact, don’t try to impress anyone. We all have ugly, stupid, crazy, stubborn, difficult, sweet, innocent side within. Either you’ll be accepted with all the evils inside you or rejected with all the divine qualities. Who cannot handle your darkness can never appreciate the glow you reflect. So, identify the right thing keeping in mind it has to be a strong base beyond right or wrong.

Well, once you identify the right things, they will chase you. They will haunt you… in your dreams, in your thoughts, in your insomniac nights. You just can’t let it go. You might think you have moved on, but they will appear from somewhere and then you realize why they should come with a rear view mirror. The worst part is, they become a part of your conscience now. You would be mad to channelize that in different ways. And thus you win. Thus dreams come true…
