Language of silence

 

I often observe people who move together as friends. They certainly do fulfill some needs of each other. And everyone has different needs.

But, over a period of time, I have understood one thing. It is very important to understand the language of silence among friends. You don’t always have to be exuberant, always chatty at 90 words per minute. Sometimes, you just have quiet moments. And these could extend to longer periods for some. What happens is that people often distance themselves in some cases can’t call them friends. I find quiet people have fewer understanding people around them.

At the end of the day, we are talking about each one’s journey and different strokes for different folks. Underlying this is a strong bond of compassion, empathy and understanding. And this bond understands silences. If It doesn’t, people will naturally move away from each other. Relationships thrive on depth of understanding.

Survive

 

I want to urge people who are prone to deep depressions and disappointments in life, that swallowing pills to feel numb is temporary. I agree that certain issues are really difficult to handle.

There comes a time of hopelessness when no solutions come up and we are on the verge if defeat and acceptance of unpalatable truths.

Never mind. Keep faith. Just as seasons must change, so must the inner seasons of the mind. Agreed that we lose patience and cannot determine the exact point at which something snaps within us. Just don’t let it snap. Keep faith.

If we didn’t believe in goodness on earth, how could we survive? Keep faith and wait for the tide to turn. It will, if you keep faith.

Truth

There was a time when truth prevailed more often than not. Today, the rumourmongers and mischief makers, inspired and encouraged by vested interests have spread such a wide net of falsehoods , misinterpretations and misrepresentation of facts and reality that people are in a state of utter confusion. What to believe and what not.

Money exchanges hands and “ facts” are born / created. We have all become storytellers. There are many twists in every tale , reality being a huge casualty. But who cares !! People want to believe what appeals to them, not what is the truth. So, everyone watches the “Tamasha” while reality quietly sits in a corner , ignored and rejected.
