Living, Vibin’ & Alone in the own zone

Image
 Humans are social animals.... We are naturally drawn toward people. We want someone to talk to after a long day, someone to laugh with over absolutely pointless things, someone to call when life gets a little too heavy, and sometimes, just someone sitting beside us without saying anything. We grow up believing that having people around us is a necessity. Friends, colleagues, groups, circles, communities, the bigger the circle, the more connected we supposedly are. I tried being that person too. I tried fitting into circles, maintaining friendships, being available, participating in plans and keeping conversations alive. But somewhere along the way, I realized something rather uncomfortable: I was constantly trying to fit myself into places where I didn't really belong. As of now, many people around me know that I stay alone. I no longer fancy big groups of people around me because I noted that I get extremely uncomfortable when there are huge number of people around me. That is ki...

Right Things at the Wrong Time : Maybe They Weren’t Meant to Stay

Image
  It will stay, if it meant to... There is something strangely cruel about meeting someone at the wrong time. Not because they did something wrong. Not because you did something wrong. Sometimes, there is no villain, no betrayal, no dramatic ending. There is just two people who somehow find each other, feel something, and yet life refuses to cooperate. Different cities. Different priorities. Different stages. One person is healing while the other is ready. One is building a career while the other is searching for a home. Sometimes you meet someone when you are still becoming the person you need to be. And then you start wondering, What if? Okay, you get where I am going now. In simple words : There is a situation in our life, we tend to find a perfect person suitable as a life partner in some point of our life. While you feel that you have won the battle, some things certainly do not work out in your favor.  What if we had met a year later? What if circumstances were different...

The Psychology of Being Taken..... but for Granted : How to get over the feeling

 "Nobody does whatever they like; they do what you let them do.”  ~ ~ ~  Tommy Vercetti, in GTA Vice City at the start of mission "Naval Engagement" Never thought a random statement from a computer game would make such a sense. I randomly discovered it while playing story missions. For a backstory, the person whom Tommy says this words was complaining that people are laughing at him and he was being saying this in anger, but Tommy gave him reality check though with this statement. At first, this statement may sound cynical, almost as if human relationships are nothing more than a constant battle of control. But psychologically, it points toward something much more subtle: people learn the boundaries of their relationships through repeated behavior. When you continuously tolerate something, accommodate something, or remain silent about something that hurts you, the other person may eventually stop seeing it as a boundary at all. Your availability becomes expected, you...

Midnight Diaries : The Late Night Thoughts of mine before bed

Image
Has it ever happened with you? You go to bed after a long tiring day and these countless thoughts come back to haunt you. You start talking to yourself all of a sudden in the bed itself, giving justifications and imagining the mistakes that could have been corrected. I have read somewhere that whenever a thought haunts you, you write it down on a piece of paper, and then you burn it down. Well I don't play with fire. I decided to write down my thoughts in a blog post. Right here. Hopefully I will sleep peacefully today... Because instead of talking this stuff to myself, I am trying to experiment it by talking, I mean writing it here...

To be a Lone Wolf or not to be - That is the question

Image
  As per Shakespeare's quote in one of his plays (If I Am Not Wrong) "To be or not to be - That is the question", I have kept the blog topic.  Hello, fellow readers to this new blog post. Today we are speaking about a topic to which a typical introvert personality will relate more than other people. People who don't want to mix up with others and prefer to take matters into their own hands. Yes, that is what Lone Wolf means. I am sure you must seen this image every where on the web, be it in the form of memes or whatsoever. To clear doubts, being Lone Wolf is not like being an animal (Just Kidding). Let us have a look at the formal definition from Google on this topic. The fact that being incorporating this kind of personality is not an easy task. It has its own disadvantages. But what makes it a good trait in a person, is how you cope with the challenges encountered while being a lone wolf. Let us have a look at the potential challenges people with these personalitie...
