Even though you might refuse to learn but eventually you're forced to, by strangers, by family,by friends and by life.
A few things may not be as essential but they are valuable, like; 'you shouldn't head bang once you're stoned'
Over the past few years, I've also learnt how to lie, how to pretend.How to fool myself.And even though they might sound unhelpful, they're very relevant.
I've learnt to love people for who they are but that's something I haven't learnt too well, so can't really talk about that too much.
But what is relatively hard, is learning to be detached.Even among your friends.Your close ones.your not so close ones.It's hard to remain unaffected.
Somehow, it's difficult to ignore what others think, what they say or feel.More so when it's someone close.For me, the opinion of my friends and family matter a lot.And why shouldn't it.But then the problem, I believe, is being unable to let go of it.In fact it's almost a habit now, to ask for an opinion, criticism...or anything and then to dwell on it.
Honestly, I don't think I can work much on that,( that's how optimistic I am ) but then I want to, for the very simple reason that it results in increased levels of mood swings and besides I don't want to sit and brood,IT'S TIRING!
Anyhow, on a note not so disconnected, the institute reopens tomorrow.And I can't be less excited.Spending 3yrs in DU does this to you.You get so used to it that everything else sucks!No offence Mr. Aurobindo.
But then my options are so limited that it's not even funny,so there, I continue my not so exciting little journey to advertising land from tomorrow!damn!
