After continued attempts at penning my thoughts on
paper, frustrated, irritated and filled with despair, I still don’t know where
to start. And until I don’t pour the words out, this clenched feeling in my
heart just won't go away.
Not a state you’d like to be in — where you have
so much to say, yet you don’t know how to say it!
In plain and simple words, without bothering to
embellish or adorn it –
I am disappointed.
With myself. With others around me.
There, I said it!
Every time, the delicate lace of expectations
that I weave, comes apart, I try and depict the pattern again!
Why?
Why, when people have disappointed me, do I
trust them again?
Why do I seek them again when they were the ones
who left me alone?
Why do they become a priority in my life, while I
still remain an option?
Blame it on the unrestricted and boundless flow
of emotions through us humans, I guess!
All seems to go well, and when you least expect
it, all goes downhill!
Such is
the way of life.
It
surprises you when you expect it the least, but need it the most.
I am sorry to have bored you with this note of
self pity and I want to thank you for having taken out the time to read this!
It truly means a lot to me!
Just one sincere and heartfelt advice –
Love
yourself. More than anyone else in the world. Because you deserve it!

have i let u down?:(
Nirali, thank you! It satisfies me to know you could connect to it...:)
Ishita, the post says I'm disappointed with people around me. It's not person specific at all!
And just to clear the air, of course, you haven't let me down! :)
its not people who let you down, its your expectations of them...
very true- love yourself...expect nothing and one day you might be surprised of something...this is what life is all about and and it has to move on :)
Bhat Sir, i completely agree with you.. The human heart knows it all.. Yet it finds it difficult to stop expecting!
Sourabh, first of all thanks for commenting! :)
Your comment reminds me of the dialogue "The show must go on"... And it does go on...:)
the thing with us "thinkers" is that we seek creativity in out pain and disappointment.
Nothing wrong in that - just feel of the pain must not be permanent.
Things would always never go right, or wrong too.
Just don't seek to be a different you in your writings - it is actually the reflection of your true self - someone you have become or you wish to become.
"HAPPY" Blogging !!

Very true...I myself have experienced it and I believe LOVINg YOURSELF is the best...
Prashant, pain helps you to write a lot better! Of course we'd all want the pain to be temporary and it was... :)
Vikash, glad you read it! And agreed ;)
you know, our life tends to respond to our frame of outlook just to shape itself to meet our EXPECTATIONS-- it is that sun which will definitely pull you to the peak of the hill leading u with a sight of dawn.. but will soon throw you dwn wid greater magnitude making u realise dat it was mere dusk which was 'expected' to be sumthing else... . things which are destined to happpen wil definitely happen..so why burn yoursef on unrational expectations.. :) :)
Pretty deep feelings, Manish...
You do have a point.. But expecting from others, I guess, comes as a part of the package! :)
