THE ONE WHO HATED HER BIRTHDAY

 


Hate. 

Why do people hate anything anyway? 

Because of either of the reasons, 

    Cant get it

    Cant be it

    Dont like it

One of  the very important reason or the most common as per to my experience is the first one. 

So, this story is about someone who recently realised she doesnt particularly like her birthday, infact she hates that day. 

She used to be the quite one. 

Earlier in her childhood, she used to seek validation, of any form, from anyone. For anyone to just look at her and feel proud for once. To look into her eyes and say you are a lovely human being, To be appreciated for all the silent work she has been doing for others because she knew bragging is not cool. Makes you look stupid. She ddint wana be stupid. She wanted herself to be seen for what she really was. 

Since no one ever even noticed her, it was easy for her to hate herself, since all her validation depended on others. Others were the report card to her who showed what she was really worth of. 

And she realised she was worth nothing. 

On the other hand, stupid people were popular, unkind ones were cool and back stabbers were loved. Infront front of her eyes. Everyday. 

It was hard for her to believe in what she was told. That she needs to make this world  a better place to live in. She tried and tried everyday. Yet no one loved her. Sure she wasnt a problem to anyone, but what she wanted was to he liked by people, or to be noticed. She was just someone whom everyone would forgeteven the name if was absent for few days. No matter what everyone did or was, she has to be the better person, bigger person. Being the bigger person sucks when you're empty inside. 

So she realised something wrong. 

That she is  worth nothing. That my friend, was  the beginning of what she ddin't knew. 

Self hate. 

She started hating herself, to be fine with others hating her too. Though no body hated her. Nobody loved her too. 

She thought the problem is in her. She is not cool enough, or smart enough. But no guys, she ddin't start being what she ddin't believe in. She knew there is hope, one day people will realise what she really is. She still stuck in validation. 

Little did she realise that the validation she is seeking, she doesn't need . That she, is enough.  That she believes in herselr, and that's enough. Her kindness spreads love and that she has made someone smile. She still doesnt realise any of it. 

Every cool person out there got what they ddin't even deserve and she on the other hand couldn't even get the bare minimum. Not even on her birthday. Self doubt turned to self hatred and she first cried on her birthday when she was 12. This continued for all the years that came by. 

Something about birthdays makes you feel extremely happy and awful at the same time. Birthdays are stupid she said, all those celebration stuffs people did on each other's, deep down she wanted that. In a very unhealthy way, she tricked her mind into believing there is nothing special about her being born. 

Her parents sure did everything she wanted. Or in other words, everything they could do, without letting her go party or have a sleepover or spend some extra time with friends because of their restrictions. With the little friends she had, she couldn't even do something for herself to make her feel better. Sure she was greatful for what she had, others had more, much more. Candles, cakes, parties. She wanted all of that. She deserved some of it atleast she thought. 

Years passed. Nothing happy ever happened to her on her special day. To this day, there hasnt been a single time, she ddint cry to herself in the bathroom, alone..

Today, she just wants to escape that day. Oh how badly she wished she wouldn't have to face that day of pretending. That fake laughs she has given and the torturous day never seems to end. She's never got what she deserved. Ever. 

She used to pour her heart out and prepare special events for her friends who were her world. But was she the world to somone? Or anyone?



No.

WORDS AREN'T ENOUGH

Being the kind of species which has been given the ability to speak, communicate and interact with others of our kind is a big advantage compared to other species we know.  We can interact with facial expressions, the various sounds we make and has meaning, we have been given the mind to use alphabets and numericals to form words and sentences. We can express what we feel through the words we form.  Often we tend to explain others about how we feel and fail to do so by saying i don't know how to explain! Or i lack the ability to.  Whereas some believe expressing has to do with the kind of person you are, always expressive since childhood? An extrovert or an introvert? And by generalizing that intriverts can't express.  Expressing has nothing to do with what kind of person he/ she has been throughout, its the form in which they choose to express.  Expressing is a natural phenomenon done by everyone in some form or the others. Some don't need words to do so, they can by simpl

I WONDER WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE NOW.

 Here is a story about two different friends, who once were close but not anymore.  I do wonder what you look like now.  The face i had watched everyday for years, is now lost to me. I haven't even kept any photographs of you, or us, or any group in which you can be seen. I still hate you. But i miss you.  I hated it that you pretended to be close to me, who pretended that I'm her special friend, who I thought misses my absence, who makes special posts on facebook tagging me with captions consisting of our nicknames, who puts whatsapp DPs with me, who paid for my food, who gave me company when I was bored. You made me feel that I'm your special friend, the one friend who you truly think of as your own. I have always craved for real connections and wanted to have a group of friends so bad that I too thought you and your "nakhres " to be included in the only group of friends I had. My group consisted of only two people, me and the other person.  I'm usually scar

THE WOMAN IN THAT BALCONY.

As an individual, my mother was always fond of going new places, exploring our neighborhood and places nearby. She  always took out the time to do what she loved so gracefully . It was so peaceful to watch her get ready so effortlessly every day and begin her daily exploration. That is something I am yet to learn fully, doing what you love. This story is of the time when I was a small kid. After when dad used to  leave early for work every morning, it was always me and my mom left in our sweet small home. And for the rest of the day, we were the only companion we had. As a child, I was something of a quite one, obeying every order, serving my mom. Me and mom used to take care of each other. We were like friends who understood everything about what we need at what time. We were at peace. No unnecessary expectations, no hurtings.                                      We had a routine for every evening. We used to walk. We used to start getting dressed when it was evening enough for going
