The Love Dilemma..

 The Love Dilemma...



Life is a pretty place to be in, Right ?

It’s pretty but you know when all of your friends are in love, and have someone to talk to and about,

Life seems pretty perfect for them,

While it’s just pretty for you.

Well, theoretically everybody has chance at love right ?

So in reality why is it just me?

Many times all of us have pondered upon this and wondered why don't I have someone.

Well, I do I have myself came the motivational answer we gave ourselves,

 Wait, but then they too have themselves and their special someone too.

Is there some kind premium subscription at life that I didn’t get for myself and they have it ?

Wait what's happening ? Am I looking for love?

But the books say you find it when you stop looking for it.

Okay I'm not looking for it I'm more towards liking it.

But then why do I like the idea of love if I don't want it ?

Okay, Maybe I do want it,

Yess, the movies suggest that if you want something with enough passion

The entire universe will conspire to bring it to you,

Now, I must want love,

But what if it’s not love that I want and it’s a person instead?

Wait wait, I read it somewhere that love sometimes to you looks like one specific  person,

Only and that person is the love of your life,

Now, I need to find that person,

But a theory suggests you fall in love 3 times in a lifetime?

So if I will fall in love 3 times will it be with 3 different people?

Because love looks that one person only to you.

Maybe its just the 3rd person that will look like love to me .

 I guess that’s why it’s said , that you fall in love only once !

But then what about the other two ?

If they weren't that one person so why did I fall for them

Well, maybe because love is everywhere right?

Wait, does this make love a gamble ?

I don't know! I’m surely not looking for love,

But someone said that your lover is the other half of you.

What? That makes me incomplete. I should look for my other half then.

Wait, am I looking for love again ?

Maybe I am,

But I once a poet said,

Open your eyes and see,

Love is waiting for you just around the corner,

I don't understand what is still making you ponder.

Maybe, I shouldn't look for it maybe I should Just look around,

Also, Love is everywhere and I am not looking for it,
I surely want someone for me,

who knows that one person the other half of me ,

who looks like love to me is there somewhere around the corner waiting for their 3rd time too.

and just like that poet said I need to open my eyes and look around and not ponder

It only happens once, a gamble it is,

But what can we do but fall,

After all everybody has a chance at love right ?

Somewhere in the middle........

Okay, so I have again ghosted this blog for a while, but you know, just got so caught up into everything else that it just became an “on the back of my mind” thought. It just wasn't coming to the front which reminds me of many other things which didn't come to the front either. Like I said, I was too occupied. But for this blog, a really kind person decided to remind me that, hey, you have forgotten about the blog, and that they're waiting for a new post. But now, as I am writing this, I reckon what were other things that I didn't do when I was too caught up with the things at the front. And also the fact that I never really cared what was important and what was not I just went on doing what came to the front. Now that I think of it, what if the thoughts and things waiting for me at the back of my mind were the ones I should have focused on? You know, I get it live in the moment, you just have one life but yeah, that matters, right? I just have one life, an...

I am a seasonal being

I am a seasonal being. Wait, I forgot to add human. So actually, I am a seasonal human being . What’s the difference, you ask? Well, a seasonal being changes every season, inside and outside. But a seasonal human being? Sometimes we change only on the outside. Sometimes, only on the inside. And sometimes both. The changes are constant. That’s just how life works. Seasonal beings understand that. Seasonal human beings… haven’t. But I think we will. The thing is change for us is still a shock. And the worst part?  We don’t have a defense ready. Apart from crying, of course. Which, again, is subjective. Because men "don’t cry" It makes them weak. And women are weak, so they cry. Or so we've been told. Some of us develop defenses, though they’re not always healthy taking it out on others, starving, bingeing, self-harm, even suicide. And some of us just exist while everything around us keeps changing. We tell ourselves we’re excited about change. We admire other se...

“Is It Love or Am I Just Gambling?”

                      “Is It Love or Am I Just Gambling?” “Last night, I woke up to a nagging feeling . the sense that I wasn’t worthy of anything. But then it dawned on me love wasn’t the problem. I’d given as much as I could, but I never received it back. Was I gambling, waiting for the roulette to stop on you loving me, hoping to win and receive love in return? Turns out I wasn’t gambling; I was hoping that this gamble would somehow pay off, and I’d win. I was ready to take the risk. Is it love? No, it’s not. The butterflies were there since you caught my eye, but the racing heartbeats and nervous eyes are still waiting to happen. So, I can say I’m ready for love. Again, I ask, Is this love or am I gambling? Well, I’m waiting, ready for love, so I can gamble and win. Will I win? What if I lose? Time will tell. Till then, stay tuned...
