THE IMPONDERABILIA OF EVERYDAY EXISTENCE

October 31, 2012

All in my head

I have to admit I can be mean. I am not one of those persons walking around who can give an earful at the word go. In life, there have been many moments whereupon I have wished I were a bit more spiteful verbally. But my meanness lies hidden in my thoughts. Yes, thoughts. I have always relived particular scenarios in my head over and again in a desperate bid to find a better way to put it to rest, other than the way it actually ended. It is my coping mechanism for the loss I make in terms of what goes unsaid.

Of the many characters we see on television nowadays, I have a rather soft corner for Sue Sylvester from Glee. Hers is a motormouth loaded with every insult in the dictionary targeted towards a William Schuester mostly. Here are two gems:

"By the power invested in me by a website, I hereby pronounce you Sue and Sue. You may kiss yourself."

"I might buy a small diaper for your chin, because it looks like a baby's ass."


More than the witticisms, I like her even more so because she never crosses the line between sarcasm and insult. Tonight, I was in a rather pensive mood, especially after my phone conversation with Dad when just then I got a rather unintentioned but hurtful message from a certain someone. The astrology account on twitter states that "You will never see an Aries emotion of disappointment. You will always wonder what they think and feel". I agree. Therefore, to cover up for the moment, I started shooting random words in my head, trying to reason out why I am not supposed to be affected by what was written. As a result, I am feeling a lot better. 

I wonder how the Buddha must have felt during his dying hours. To not have a sense of attachment to any thing or being in this world. He did not experience disappointment because he never had expectations from others. I want to be like him too but unfortunately I am drowning in samsara already. Things just got a little complicated tonight and I have only msyelf to console. How much longer must I endure such episodes, I wonder? Sadly, I already know the answer to this one.
