Fake Virtual World

There comes a point in your life, basically in your early twenties, when you start to look too much into future. You have all these ideas about how you want your life to be and who you want to be, This is why this time comes to be the hardest as it requires you to change or move away from your comfort zone. It is when you start listening to yourself more than you ever did. It is this time when friends start being less important and life starts being more.

You look for your role models and start learning from what they did and what they did not. You create your own ways. Some choose to talk about it loud and some choose to plan everything on a personal ground before reaching out. But while you are figuring out what you actually desire, the exposure of what other's are doing influences you more. One starts doubting their very own ideas and prefer working on what others have been.

In the middle of the maddening crowd and people earning money to have the best of everything, different safety modes like "yoga" and "meditation" exist to help you relax. Facebook came up to show the best in your life and Twitter came to show the worst of your life and the reality, the life remains stuck in the middle. You are often confused if the number of likes should make you happy about your enthusiasm or number of retweets make you realize that everyone else in the world can also relate to how you feel.

We don't live in one world anymore. There is one real world and the rest are million lies and we think we know how everyone's been doing when we scroll through the timelines, but that isn't always the case. Honestly, it is time people stop surfing social media, in order to look for role models but rather focus on making themselves one with their own opinions and ideas.

We have figured it out wrong. Bustling on the roads, sipping our coffees, Smoking cigarettes, partying on weekends, Spending our money on things that don't matter, Like the new shoes, or Maybe the new Dress, The pretty girl with a fake accent is Busy, busy being anxious about her fashion choices, because well, she got it all figured wrong. Yet, she thinks she knows it all, while hidden insecurities, she believes her fake personality is top-notch. So many people in meaningless gibberish Wishing to stay updated with the world facts, to become so opinionated that they can interact about everything that exists, But what are these opinions for by-the-way, If the people you talk to, don't wish to talk to you anyway? And then, come those who wish to align with the world Fight for their society, or the well-being, Such that they are willing to take laws into their own hands, Use their provoking skills to thrash someone in a  mob, who did maybe a wrong.

It's a Blank.

My dog is chewing my laptop screen. I am tapping on the keys. I have my Skype logged in. My google drive has a few unfinished links. I am wondering about my novel. I am waiting for a call from my spouse and I'm mad. I am wearing his sweat shirt because it's cozy and I miss him. I am planning to block an annoying friend on Whatsapp. I am also planning to give extra classes to few kids at a school for free. I can't stop thinking about the hookah I had last night. I can't stop being envious of all the couples who were there celebrating "valentine's day" together. I also want to wear the pair of heels I just bought. My dog is now tired of chewing the screen and has fallen asleep. I had sketched a very colorful butterfly two days ago. It didn't look beautiful because I suck at it. I just had a few chicken kababs. One of my friend wants me to do food blogging. I only want to eat food and not write about it. Somebody just knocked at the gat...

Revisiting.

When I was young, Oh, when I was young... Everything was so much fun. Had no dreams, had no pun, but oh, it was so much fun. The hugs from mama, learning skates, learning to ride a bicycle and the dance with papa. The fights with di and the games too.. Telling on her to mom and dad, and the midnight stories too.. No cellphone, no wifi, Even the cable was out, Had a playground, had a school, and there was plenty happiness, no doubt There were friends, who brought plenty smiles Them, I still dream of, After the closing of blinds... And now, Oh its still good,, With the new world around.. but the old days, I will always miss their sound.
