Lets talk me and I
Have you ever embarked on a journey towards your goal,only to realise that was the hardest and longest route.You wonder if the goal will ever be reached, but then tell yourself, it is really the journey that counts.As today your experience makes you far richer, than you were when you started off.
Have you ever shuffled the pages of your old diaries and wondered, where did all those that have filled those pages disappear.Inspite of the void which hurts real bad, you tell your self you need to keep smiling as they would not have it any other way.
Have you ever looked in the mirror only to see the cracks become bigger over time.You know now is the time to turn away.You don’t want to.As you don’t know if there would be one to look into if you ever turned back.But then you tell yourself, you just have to take that chance.Because if you didn’t you would never be able to see past those cracks again.
Have you ever watched a loved one fall and hurt themselves.Though it hurts you more than them you don’t pick them up.You tell your self, if they didn’t fall today when you were watching over, they would never learn to pick themselves up on their own again.
Have you ever found some one crying.You wanted to ask them if they were ok,or just wanted to hold their hand or even give them a hug.But you didn’t.You tell yourself, may be they really need that moment to themselves.
Have you ever looked yourself in the eye and spoken to yourself.Had one of those man to man conversations.Told yourself, it doesn’t matter if you’ve been stupid or feel defeated, tomorrow is another day.
Time to look me in the eye methinks.

We need more conversations with ourselves lest we make enemies instead of allies of ourselves. Becoming strangers to ourselves is the most tragic thing that can happen to us.

Have you ever watched your thoguhts as you debated a sensitive issue? It’s not funny how emotions cloud our thinking and how you stupid you appear to yourselves at times…
