The journey of life is it lonely ??
Well, in reality it’s is a lonely path that each one chooses. Some choose easy terrain while others choose treacherous path, nevertheless each one’s journey eventually is one to be endured by self. In the philosophy of life we come alone and go alone.
Then why all this fuss ?
The mess, the confusion and chaos that we create with the thoughts of I, me and myself is beyond explanation for many. Being totally oblivious to the fact that we are actually creating many situations and circumstances in our life which could in reality have been avoided.
Being caught with our needs which turned into greed brings about a myriad range emotions ranging from insecurities to jealousy. If this is not clipped at the bud then it is beyond being able to be repaired. As we slip into deep burrows of denial and pain.
We hold onto relationships and have expectations from our loved ones and friends it’s nothing but natural to want them to be there for us or look our for us. But when priorities change or things change it really becomes difficult to accept it or even face it.
The tears of pain will only put us in a whirlpool of loneliness and feeling unloved or worthless. Being born as humans we need the family and group hoarding. We are social animals we need the touch, the appreciation and acknowledgement. We are unable to allow ourselves to even get ourselves out of the social conditioning that takes place.
- Expectations – comes to us with perceptions that it is built in and social conditioning. Expectations naturally leads to hurt and pain as when expectations are not meant we are never happy.
- Behavior – we are shown and taught how to behave in society and again what’s expected of us in our behavior. How we need to be a certain way to be approved or even acknowledged.
- Priorities – in this as babies we are known to be given the required attention and as we grow up we realize that one never prioritizes oneself. Those who are at times they can be labeled with certain names. Due to various reasons we forget ourselves and our needs in the bargain of catering to other peoples priorities.
- Respect – this is something we all know and have been conditioned to respect our elders and teachers. Somewhere down generations this is diluted and today there is always an issue of respect. When we don’t respect ourselves why will we even think about respecting others?
- Time – this another precious element, when we don’t value our time how can you expect others to value your time or be there on time for you. At the same time when you do value our time we see others being equally respectful of our time.
- Space – one should define boundaries and work towards maintaining them with respect and gratitude. Nothing is worth collapsing your boundaries or trying let people come in to hurt you.
These are some things important for one’s journey and one should work on this and put themselves in place where these things is of no consequence. The first thing we need to know is the journey of life is meant for each and everyone of us. At many situations and circumstances we will be traveling alone. But by trying to hold onto relationships where you are not valued or respected is really not worth it.
Being social animals do we get hurt ?
Yes of course it’s natural
Do we need to hold onto it?
No it’s not needed as nothing in this life is worth being upset about.
One may ask if we don’t have expectations from our loved ones and friends then what’s life ??
Well having expectations is a natural human trait but holding onto the outcome and pain will only make life difficult for us and we can never be prepared to face the reality.
The next question can be
If we are meant to journey alone why were we made as social animals?
Well we are put into families and groups to have others witness our life and be part of it. But then each one have a free will which they will naturally administer and if they wish to not be part of something well they have a choice.
The journey of life is to experienced not endured.
Life is to be witnessed and experienced not suffered or feared.
