Life is a heap of emotions and feelings, a careful mixture
of happy and sad ones, however for some unknown reason humans tend to hold on
to the not so happy ones. We all cherish the happy moments of our lives but we
don't recall them often. Whatever memories we tend to recollect have a bit of
sadness attached to them.
I haven't yet been able to figure out why. Maybe we like to
be in that gloomy state, or we just want people to be sympathetic towards us,
or we just want to be a part of the majority!
It’s a known fact, if someone is happy most of the time,
that person is either termed as being sad and lonely deep within, or he is
judged to be a not so nice person. Stereotypes, I tell you!
But why?
Why can someone not be happy all the time! Just because you
wish to hold on to all those depressing memories and live a life regretting
your actions or probably cursing god, doesn't mean the other person should
follow suit!
Humans are a very very simple creation of god! All our
actions, emotions, needs… Everything is based on our self-happiness and a
desire to be in a powerful position or be an attention seeker. As they say,
social boycott is probably the worst punishment, simply because we hate to stay
unknown, or be unwanted, we fear being alone. We all crave for attention… And a
sure shot way of receiving it is by being 'sad'.. It isn't empathy but sympathy
that we all like.. We may not accept it, but if we take a minute and look
inside ourselves, most of you would agree, if not openly, but surely behind closed
doors, in your own company.
We humans are a unique species… Very easy to understand, yet
we try to layer ourselves with complexities... It just makes us more desirable
for others…Hence more attention.
Such is the human nature!
