Reality or Fiction?

Often my mind has sank with the thoughts of burdening reality crushing me down and Fiction and its overthinking patterns swaying me away.

The escape mechanism of everyday life is so charming that most of the people today claim themselves to be overthinkers. And we all think that we would make a winner in the sports, proving that a major chunk of the human population thinks and thinks in a spiral motion.

Life is a torture or a pain maybe but the despair of imaginary scenarios is unparalleled. The undying habit of thinking about the events and rethinking about the various different outcomes is a whole different mood.

But ever wondered the Why of it? Ever thought why we do it so often? Ever considered the situations that led us to this?

People are lonely. The statement sums our lives and it summarizes the problem too. When we are all shell locked in our cocoons, we forget the existence of the outer world. We get so involved in ourselves that we overlook others. We get lost in our set of problems that we disregard anyone. We are scared to share,so much that we feel that bearing the pain alone is better than sharing it with someone who could use it against you. We are fighting battles,each one of us and no one is aware because no one cares and because no one gives others the importance. We are constantly inflicted with doubts,insecurities and exploitation. These have started lingering at the back of our head and have given birth to all the trust issues and loneliness in our lives.

People are together in this yet separated,united in all the wars on social media and alone in their homes,patent against a wrong virtually and turn a handicap in reality and people fight for others knowing full well that when the situation shall actually demand,they will turn their backs and run far away.

All these corner us to ask oneself,How far have we come? Or how much far have we grown? The questions might have various layers but the underlying fact stays the same. Loneliness,Fear,Anxiety,these all have been present and have been too normalized that every second person you meet would say that they have traumas and have been in depression. People have become open about it and it’s a good thing but this openness has only closed the doors of kindness and empathy.What good does a society with lost morals bring to anyone around?
