being watched
These days I feel like someone is continuously watching me, whether i am Ā eating, working, playing or even sleeping. I become conscious and stop doing what I was doing, or I should do. This thought is not letting me enjoy things as I used to. I see people around, but donāt talk to anyone, it feels like they have already assumed me to be a bad person or stranger with whom they should not talk to or in some way or the other inferior, do they even bother to think anything about me, why do I bother or even think about them? I donāt know, one thing Iāve certainly observed about myself these days is Iām becoming conscious of the other person presence instead of rejoicing in myself which has always been me.Ā Now, Iām exploring the other direction and being more outwardly and looking for people outside with whom I can talk or can connect to. Although, all my life expereinces donāt support it, Iāve felt immense joy, freedom and blissfulness only in the instances of uter aloneness, and when Iām just me and no where is there. Iāve always enjoyed myself and done what I like to do, and till now others interest and choices rarely mattered or influced what and who I am and how I should be. but the fact that Iām writing this states that slowly it has started affecting me and my choices. Now I think about all the crap which would take me down before doing anything I like. It is not the first time it is happening, I keep on dwelling between these states. I be with people, trust them immersly and only later realise thatĀ I should have been alone, I should not get involve in peopleās life, but at the same time feeling of sharing this joy and blisfulness and small moments of beauty arises, and I then no longer can think about anything, I completely melts and there is not even a though of the other comes, and in these moments I share, because I could have just not lived without sharing.Ā This has been a pattern which I observed, and have to break somehow in order to grow, otherwise living in this patern is becoming a habit and sometimes I feel stuck like why am I keep squeesing it if no juice is coming out?Ā as a human I also have a right to make a choice, do I? and probably I should make a one.. I think that there is no one outside to look for, at least it seem true until now from all the past expereinces and also that is what the theory says. I can only rejoice in myself and should do it, that is how we are and we should just accept it, searching for things whether its people, true connection or things all are illusions, may be of some help in survival, but thatās not the only thing one lives for. At least what I have observed within me is, I only start looking for things outside whenever I lose contact with myself, and this is true the other way around also, whenever I lose myself, I start the search outside, which is total foolish and leads to illusons.Ā I start searching for myseld in the others, but just in sometime, when I come back home and stop the outside search, I find myself automatically, without any efforts. Magic! then I will again be myself and the juice starts flowing, but later only in a few days or months time, somehow something happens and I forget myself, and then wonders and wonders wonders here and there till again I come back home.Ā - an old post, re-posting from a old blog.Ā
