Sometimes when people who are close to you ask you a question or make some statement, even though you know they have good intentions in mind, the statements/questions sometimes flashes reality to you. And at times reality is not too great, and kind of hits you In the face, making you slightly irritated. I just collected some such questions and statements, and my after thoughts on them.
Stop talking about work…sorry guys that’s what I have got going right now, pretty much everything else is conventionally boring.
What you doing home on Friday night…unfortunately I do not have anybody to go out with, nor do I gel well amongst a unknown group of people, not enough time and skills to make new acquaintances. So you will find me at home, on Friday evening watching TV or reading a book, or finishing something for work
Whats your weekend plan?. well most of my weekend plans go to do with some writing I do for my blog, having hours of sleep to catch up on, watching an odd movie on my pc. So that’s pretty much it, I end up going out if my cousins drop in taking me out.
You worry too much.. I do agree with you on this, but somehow I am not seeing a way out, I guess I am too weak to fight this drawback of mine, or may be its time I thought about this seriously
You Think too much..yep I agree, sometimes take pride too in this fact, but nowadays I seem to have lost the big picture, whats the use? I am beginning to question myself, but sometimes I guess I am fascinated way too much on the image of living a beautiful thought
You think you are lonely..I don’t know if I should say yes or no to this, the fact is really I do not know, may be I am lonely may be I am not, may be I mistake that to being alone but not lonely.
So has the life gone forward?, what next?…someone asked me this recently, and I couldn’t help but notice how stagnant my life has become, one of the profound questions I have been asked recently, even though I knew in what context this was put, all I could do was think about it.

That last question struck a chord with me-probably because of all the changes that are taking place in my life and the reason why things are changing. I can’t remember if I was asked that question by an “outsider” or if it was just a question that I’ve asked myself over and over again….but after having to admit to life being stuck in the neutral position, I realized that it was time to take that step out of the familiar and into a situation that is virtually unknown. Perhaps-since that question seems to be resonating with you as well-it’s time for you to do something dramatic in order to make some changes?

One thing that struck me was when you told the difference between being alone and lonely. I became more clearer when I read in the tarot book about this. It is such a rejoice to be alone.
, Enjoy the moment, it won’t be there after sometime!
If my friends say that I worry too much and if I think too much, I become somewhat tensed or start thinking a lot. I feel if I am the only one behaving like this! For me the most irritated question is wht’s next………..I don’t want to answer this one even if I know!
All these capture very very small portion of life, think life as a whole and think about yourself only, what you want to do, how you should feel, what questions you want to answer! I know you can make this change to happen.
Bless You! ~Namaste~

oh you ask me. yeah these things bother. but seriously I dont take these people much seriously; and if these are the things I like or enjoy why should I need to change them for the sake of someone else. I would change them only If I feel the need .

I’ve always hated the question of what’s next and moving on. Movement and transition is not always needed for life to be enjoyable or even fulfilling. Corporations make sure to always grow and move; people are more complex- we can be fine where we are at.

Can you please be clear now on soltitude and aloness….
m little bit confused on this!
Yeah, I know I need to answer this question to myself only, but why other ask this question,….I am irritated sometimes when they ask this!
Bless You! ~Namaste~

But I thought aloness, loneliness and soltitude are mental state. Physically, we don’t have anybody else to talk or around you. Is it like this, loneliness can be aloneness also? Aloneness is presence of oneself. It is an overflowing presence. But in loneliness, you always feel that it would have been better if the other were there – your wife, your friend, your parents! And Soltitude is the higher form of aloneness, which takes you to your very best.
This is what I think! Make me correct please, if still you feel I am confused.
Bless You! ~Namaste~

in that case then; just asking questions does not help. one need to identify what really needs to be done in case things start bothering. probably a good discussion can help to identify to set expectations in right direction.
neilina said
yep! Thanks.

The discussion could be about the questions said above. That’s what friends and family are meant for. Many a times you tend to get that missing link from conversation with your parents/loveed ones/anyone who matters you. There is no hurry to make up the stand. But at the same time it is not gonna happen overnight right ? And keeping all this inside your system are nt gonna get you anywhere. it is still nt going to get you that stand. You know what i mean ?
