The
Old One-Twos
Talking about the bummers, the letdowns and all the frustration,
oh well, what else to say than the fact that we go through these every single
day. Life is full of these and it makes sure that the box is never empty. One
day without chocolates or our phones won’t be a problem, but one day without a
setback, however small it may be, can’t be counted as one fine day. Life seems
to promise many things, but one promise that is held without a day-off is
firing away all the drags towards us. Such ‘not wanted’ guests these are! But
suddenly now, I want to have them all coming for me. And I want to turn out to
be the best host for these ‘petty’ visitors. Because now I know, if anything
can make it happen, if anything can make it better, it’d be my hold-backs,
those old one-twos. Being a writer and having this blog, I actually now get the
picture of what these editorials, rhymes and opinions would be without ‘them’. A pen, a paper or a lapbook matter a great deal to someone who loves to
scribble and share. But all of this doesn’t really matter if you do not have
the urge to pour out all the frustration burning your head. When we say, ‘Yeah
let’s just move on’, or, ‘Unh, forget it’, we actually never do the same.
Rather we only think and re-think about the situation. But all the time
chanting the golden words, “Be Positive”, wouldn’t really help if you won’t
stop giving a damn about your failures or worries. Instead, learn to take them
out. Now everybody has a different sense of doing things. But if you’re
calculating on how to bring on all those brawls and fights back to life, check.
That won’t help either. A little more thoughtful and pragmatic idea is all that
we need. And I won’t say writing is the perfect thing you got here, but it is
no less. Given up? Confused? Teary? Run (I do). Smash the doors (Anger, I
tell you!). Lock ‘em up. Open up the slate and then open up yourself. Even if
you don’t write something sensible, the break-down will all be gone. The burden
on your head and heart, you’ll see, will now have shifted onto to the paper or
the Word Pad. And you don’t really have to be a writer to do this. All you need
to be is determined to let it go. Let it go without having to say ‘Damn this
universe’, or, ‘I don’t care’, or, ‘Okay, whatever’. Sigh. Only if you’d stop
smirking and puffing that negative smoke surrounding you, you’d catch up soon
and start nodding.
