What are U doing?
All of us from time to time are faced with the critical decision of keeping our heads down and continue with our current struggles. We all do it, some willing and some unwilling. In the process, we loose out on our interests, our goals, our ambitions, our livessss!!! What to do is our question we find asking ourselves. Do we make an effort? Do we seriously? Why are we so hesitant to ask questions? Why are we so uncertain about making the leap forward and jumping into the new lives that is stored for us. No, I'm not saying that you should just follow what the plan is laid out for us but rather question the motive. We tend to live in a false world where we think that everybody is there for us and at all times. This not only raises the expectations of people but also puts them us in a scenerio which is bound to come back and haunt us. A lost feeling then creeps in and takes us into a world where we want to be left alone. Most of us would tend to think that its a state of depression but rather in my humble opinion, I think its a world of ambiguity, a world of people who only care about themselves. No one has time for others.
Everyone wants to just get on with their lives. Is that the way we really want to live out our lives? Just live out the days and wait for the weekend to party and go mad? Is that the little joys that are left for us out of all the other things in this world? When was the last time you did something that really made you happy and not did something to go with the norm. We all suffer from a feeling of not knowing whether to be truly happy or truly right? The battle continues.

agreed to your post!
simply enough everyone in their own capacity is trying to be a certain way to keep themselves sane and trying to be happy.yes, indeed in doing that we tend to trample over others and forget that this can very well come back and get slapped back on us.
about expectations..they will always be there.something that you can't disassociate yourself from its almost inborn. we do it all the time and yes its very human to then be down when they are not met.
on some level we all realize tht we are not on this planet alone and selfishness is certainly not the answer, but yeah as you rightly said..we just want to go on with our lives and only bother when it matters to us and we want to be happy and know thtat a certain idiot or idiotess will always be around in the form of any relation friend partner sister mother father bro anyone.
wht i want to ask, what about when someone is going out of their way to "do" sometthing..not expecting not caring tht nothing is reciprocated in the way you want it to be. whtat about that. you bend your back..and dont even complain because it's all out of genuiness..nothing fake..
people just can't differenciate between this..everyone just thinks "they are doing everything right"
truly happy...yes the battle defo continues

Nicely done! Your lines reminded me of some beautiful lines by Khalil Jibran a small extrac goes like :
‘That sorrow which obsessed me during my youth was not caused by lack of amusement, because I could have had it; neither from lack of friends, because I could have found them. That sorrow was caused by an inward ailment which made me love solitude. It killed in me the inclination for games and amusement. It removed from my shoulders the wings of youth and made me like a pong of water between mountains which reflects in its calm surface the shadows of ghosts and the colors of clouds and trees, but cannot find an outlet by which to pass singing to the sea.’
