You are practical, insensitive and emotionally drained!
I grew up hearing these compliments (I choose to take them
that way) from every soul who was close to me and over a period of time I
started believing in them too. Acting stronger than I was, being a loner when
all I wanted was a long conversation over a cup of coffee, getting on without
support when a little help would have actually made it better and being someone
else when my inner self was dying to surface above.
In short, I screwed up and I am happy to admit now. I took
refuge in somebody else’s perception and let it take all control. I took the
practicality as my perfection and thought that any kind of attachment will
cause me nothing but pain. And I actually went through a lot of pain not
because of attachment but because of lack of it. The shell of loneliness that I
created has left a void in me which I find difficult to fill now.
I can no longer fill these voids as they have become big
enough to engulf me but I hope to peacefully coexist with them. Living with
them every moment will make me surer of who I am and who I was being.
This reminds me of these very beautiful lines by Janis Joplin
“Never compromise yourself; you are all you have got”

the thing about your blog posts is that they are short!! give them another 100 words or so!! i really want to read the posts..but they finish too soon.!! anyway keep up the good work!! and *LIKE for being active :P
I can totally connect to your story...First we allow people to make certain perceptions abt ourselves n den we simply make it our comfort zone...which actually shud nt b d case..
Keep blogging!! :)

I could relate with this post a lot. Like you, I had once withdrawn into loneliness, till it threatened to engulf me. Fortunately, I realised my foible on time and rectified it. I can't say I am a very outspoken person - the ghosts of the past still linger - but I am better than before and all for good. :)
your writing is real !
truly inspirational
happy writing bhavi :)
