-just a thought-
this is my ten cents worth of pondering about things that i am not even sure if they deserve to be pondered upon.
i really think that there is an irony in each of us -we long to be with with somebody with whom we can share a part of us with and yet when we feel that we have met that person, we are so scared to be with them because we are scared to take the risk of being hurt. we are scared and it cripple us as a person.we are scared about things that we do not know. and the most insane of all fears, as far as i am concerned is the fear of not meeting other people's expectation. we care too much about what will the rest of the world say when we act on the things that we really like. we care too much about THEIR expectations because a part of us would like to please THEM because by not doing so, we'll be ALIENATED.
but come to think of it, who suffers? if you listen to the rest of the world and follow what they expect you to do, and for some reason you end up being miserable, can you blame them? i don't think so. you have consciously made a decision to follow them. my take is rather hedonistic but i'd like to think it is realistic. personally, my take is that, the world will not be there for me when i am already in misery, in fact it might even blame me for it. i think that nothing matters except the things that would make us happy, that would complete us as a person. they might ask us to take some deviations and act against certain rules. but hey, at the end of the day, you'll be left on your own and you reap the fruits of your decisions.why not harvest the fruits that makes you happy rather than the fruits that would bring you misery?
