It’s Friday and right after office, I reached back to my room, and sat down on the bed, facing the mirror,reflecting upon how emotionally and physically tiring it has been for me these days.
I suddenly broke down into uncontrollable tears and kept going on for almost an hour.
After recovering from there, I pushed myself on a self date to my favourite coffee shop and had to gorge upon some sugar rush and coffee to recover from the same.
As I sit there, wondering about how tough life has been, while sipping on my coffee, I realised that no amount of physical pain can actually match with the emotional trauma, that one goes through.
Do you ever feel so huddled up with life, that you are left breathless? Family issues, career, personal life, everything taking a toll on your mental peace and leaving you with a feeling of void?
Firstly, family plays a critical role in one’s life. No matter how much you achieve, or how far you reach in your life, it feels incomplete without the support from your own family. Do you ever feel estranged, when you lack the boost of confidence, trust and support from your family, every time you tell them about something that’s happening in your life? Do they turn a deaf year to all your achievements and are ready to blame you firsthand for your failures?
Secondly, the most important thing in our lives, are our careers, and that if it goes wrong, can hamper a lot on one’s emotional peace. Do you feel out of place in your workplace and don’t feel recognised or appreciated for your work? Do you get that feeling of not belonging there, and that gives you an instant rush of quitting?
Lastly, let’s talk about the most complicated and the most important thing in one’s life, and that’s their own personal life. Friendships, relationships, etc, are so complicated in this current world, that almost everyone lacks the courage to show their original personalities. In this modern era, every step and every word is judged by people( for example – if you like reverting quickly to texts, then you are considered as a desperate person, while if you take a lot of time to reply, then you are considered as an egoistic person).
Have you ever been in a phase where everything is so overwhelmingly tiring in your life, that you frequently get this feeling of running away to an unknown place?
Do you ever get that realisation that running away actually isn’t an option for you, because there are people dependent upon you, and you got to take care of them?
Do you ever feel like your life has become a roller coaster ride and you have absolutely no idea where it is leading to? Do you have a sudden outburst of emotions out of nowhere, but you quickly hide the same, as you have no idea how people around you would react? Do you ever feel like pouring your heart out to someone, but you feel the lack of words and you are unsure where to start from? Do you ever feel tired, dragging your life around, so you plan frequent solo or a close friend circle escapes?
If the answer to all of the above is yes, then sweetheart, just take a moment to pause, breathe and then reflect for clarity. Start beginning by taking 1 thing at a time. Trust the universe with wherever it’s taking you, with a belief that things happen for our own good.
Lastly, be grateful for what you have been through, where you currently stand and whatever you have achieved so far. Trust the process and things would ultimately fall in place.
