Learning

The word loneliness repeatedly appeared in my little wondering mind today.

Work sent me to a far far away land for a mission. Had to do it, choice-less. So, there i went with me myself and i to the land of unknown, filled with grubby mist and a whole load of strangers. As i stood at a corner eagerly waiting for my turn, i realised that since the minute i set my foot there, the phone was my companion. Dialled and messaged anyone i thought were possible to keep me occupied. Realising that, i hated being alone.

Did not need 23 years for me to realise it but it became a more prominent issue in my little emotional mind. Being in this industry, i can't expect people to be there just happen i feel lonely isn't it. I gotta get a grip of myself. This would not be the only occasion i have to deal it myself. but who likes to be alone? i know some, but surely not all the time. It's a petty issue but it bothers me so much being unable to handle such minor loneliness. Sometimes, it takes a while to understand simple things in life. Life is always a learning process. I can foresee more frustrations to come as i get to know myself better. -emo. battle-

Indra showed this to me, and it speaketh itself... or- it speaketh to us.

...After a while
After a while you learn

The subtle difference between

Holding a hand and chaining a soul

And you learn that love doesn't mean leaning

And company doesn't always mean security.

And you begin to learn

That kisses aren't contracts

And presents aren't promises

And you begin to accept your defeats

With your head up and your eyes ahead

With the grace of a woman

Not the grief of a child

And you learn

To build all your roads on today

Because tomorrow's ground is

Too uncertain for plans

And futures have a way

Of falling down in mid flight

After a while you learn

That even sunshine burns if you get too much

So you plant your own garden

And decorate your own soul

Instead of waiting

For someone to bring you flowers

And you learn

That you really can endure

That you are really strong

And you really do have worth

And you learn and you learn

With every good bye you learn.
