Ever truly yearned for something you can’t have? All you need to do is reach out and grab it but the circumstances you’re in prevent you to do so, like ethics, social norms etc. Why does everything have to have rules and regulation? What the hell happened to good old ‘Indiscipline’?
With this thought, I bring before you my latest blog post. I’ve been so preoccupied with the rest of my life and I completely lost my mind somewhere. I hope to find you soon, Mind. Till then I’ll gallop through my days like the ‘Headless Horseman’.
Shifting into a new apartment is never easy. It’s amazing the amount of clutter that accumulates around you that you never seem to notice. My life’s possessions are three suitcases of clothes, one suitcase of bags and shoes and other accessories, another suitcase of books, a few kitchen appliances and utensils, and a few random odds and ends which include my stuffed toys. Yes I am 23 and I have two bears and an elephant I can’t sleep without. And I am NOT ashamed of it.
None of which are truly mine, since I haven’t purchased it with my own money. I hope to soon, being the fiercely independant person that I am.
Packing, shifting and unpacking was a day’s worth of work. And living with Divya, is like wrapping your favourite comforter around you. College is as hectic as ever. And like I said earlier, I’ve just been galloping through my days.
But over the last month or so, I’ve discovered there’s something I want. It’s right there in front of me and I can’t have it. And it’s driving me insane. Should I live according to social norms and just sit back and yearn? Or should I just be selfish and grab it without taking into consideration anybody else’s feelings or opinions? Should I be who I am? Or Should I be who I’m not? While I debate this, what if this thing I want, has been whisked away by someone else? Should I feel regret? Or should I feel relieved? I almost grabbed at it, but Mr. Common Sense screamed ‘No. Who the hell does he think he is telling me what to do, anyway? I want my Mind back in my life.
Mind!
Mind!
Where the hell are you?
Hello!
Mind!
Come out, come out wherever you are!
MIND!!!!
