A few months ago, I was going through this phase where I had to make a decision for myself, for my body. Either way my life would have changed drastically. At that time I had too many conflicting emotions.
And many people who did not know my mental state or what i was going through in my life started giving me their opinion and not only me but my parents as well.
I said to that person “You don’t know me or the things I have been through. You don’t have the right to tell me what to do.”
To this he replied ” You may not think this way but we are on the same boat.”
This for some reason made me more angry.

Fast-forward to few days ago, I spoke to the same person again. We spoke for hours about him, about what he is going through. I could relate we shared stories for hours and somehow in that we both felt happier. To know, Ok I am not alone.
We humans have this thing with being able to relate to other people. While we like being unique we also like to be understood by someone or being able to relate to other person. Like this is my person. It makes us feel normal.

Speaking to him I realized we are all in same boat. But we have isolated ourselves so much in our own problems our own suffering, we don’t realize there could be someone besides you who may have gone through it or a person besides you can actually help you rise up.

We are all in same game,
Just different level.
Dealing with same hell,
Just different Devil.

I am not going to say that now I share everything with everyone, but I will say this I AM TRYING. I share more that I used to before to people I am close to, it helps, it makes me feel lighter makes me think clearer. May be you can too. Open up honey take that risk, people still have the capability to surprise.
