“The world
is an evil place.
Because of
their cruelty
I am a
miserable person,
And it’s
very foolish to assume that
It’s all in
my mind
We everyone
Lies,
About the
truth
The world
Decides
Who
I am
And I want
to live this way where,
Sadness
Kills
Happiness
I believe
that,
The
surroundings are controlling me
And I will
never ever think that
The world
is a beautiful place. “
I thought
to myself as I stared out of the window into the dreary scene. The clouds
looked like airy anvils drifting under the gleaming disc of the Sun. Faint
splattering sounds came from outside, hissing as lightning struck the sky. I
could see the curtain of rain on the other side of the window.
My mind was
behaving like a dragon, flying horizons in few seconds, breathing fire and
burning down the few remains of optimism.
I don’t
think, I am the only one whose thoughts races towards darkness, hatred or
pessimism when he/she is a victim of heart-break or solitude or pain. There are
circumstances which forces us to take some decisions, maybe right maybe wrong.
I think these decisions which we make solely depend on how we perceive those
circumstances, how we see the things.
I am not
giving any dose of wisdom, I am just telling to turn on your indicators and
change the direction of your thinking, and you will eventually experience
serendipity.
Even this
dude, Shakespeare once quoted,” There is nothing either good or bad but
thinking makes it so”
This tells
that the philosophical stuff which I am talking about now is being known since
early 15th century. So, why people are still becoming supreme judges
of their life and sentencing themselves to misery? Why people start relating
the lyrics to themselves whenever they listen to sad songs? Why there is
ephemeral happiness? Why the world is so evil? Why Why Why?
My mind was
whirling with the storm of thoughts. Just then, the pleasant, dewy petrichor of
the post-rain caught my attention. I could see the iridescent sky. The sky was getting cleared up and so were my
thoughts. I realised how oblivious I was all these years of my life. If only I
could have reversed my perspective from the beginning, I would certainly have
changed my last twenty-years!
