How do we hurt ourselves being naive?

Being naive and innocent is a tough job, I assure you. Let yourself free and look the world in its truest phase. At least try to!

Often when I have drowned myself in deep thoughts analysing my life and the happenings, I have only led myself to a corner. A corner of doubt and insecurity. The human connections keep one alive and they are also the reason why a person dies while being alive. While thinking and overthinking, one not only repeats the scenes but also thinks about the possibilities and various perspectives. And it is of help to be true.

Hello people. I mark my attendance here again today with my overbearing thoughts. The thoughts are crushing in nature and overpowering too. While they burden us and are overwhelming, they run deeper than we think. The people we consider friends may actually not even consider us acquaintances. The lines of bonding from our side may stretch the relationship longer but only in one direction, with a strain that shall only hurt us.

Stumbling on to people is an old habit of mine. Not physically. I mean emotionally or intellectually. And I am a believer of all the good things and virtues and values. But the world does not work using this logic. Your beliefs have entirely nothing to do with someone else’s course of action. I have a soft heart for people. My heart feels and goes through a turmoil when I hurt someone even by mistake. The lies that I have spoken at times have only been to protect someone’s peace or give them happiness. I have an overthinking brain and an over caring heart. And believe me these have troubled me more than you can think. It’s always been a hassle to deal with these since a child. But the problem is my brain can understand all of it and can take on a decision too, but the heart is too forgiving. It remembers the details but conveniently decides to set up new bonds.

If you are reading this, dear reader, please do not ever try this combination. Let the brain be a little practical and the heart be compassionate. The heart should be a great one but it should listen to the brain. It is the machine of the humans that run it. I am sure it can do its job properly. It was a joke I guess. I hope you take it that way. But on a serious note, have a good heart and a smart brain.

Life can be unfair at any point. You never know. So it is necessary to understand the flows of it and the grounds it can turn into fronts. Thus, have a clear understanding of the surroundings and be an avid observer. Do not think you are trying to understand others, take it as a way of protecting yourself. You love yourself, right? I hope you do. In the times when we are literally unashamed of telling lies to others and digging people’s graves, I hope we stay loyal to the conscience that keeps us human. It will take time to train, but I am sure you will achieve your goal. What remains next is a set of rules to follow for yourself being a fine human.

  • Develop yourself strong
  • Understand others
  • Keep yourself in check
  • Distance yourself from negatives
  • Try to be kind
  • Repay the favours and also the tortures if it becomes important

You may wonder what was the point. Well, there are times when the storm outside calms the inside storm but does not allow it to let it out. The anger and the frustration always boils within, which can be controlled and can be used as a mechanism of learning. But if someone does something truly hurting and does not stop just, be sure to let them have a taste of the medicine. Because toxins and poisons can train you and your body to build antibodies but too much of it can kill you too. Be sure to not kill yourself. And you are good to go, my friend. These instructions are for only the naive and innocent ones. And the smart ones, well let me know if i made the right points or not.
