Express Yourself...

What are we supposed to do when we are a factory of emotions?  what is it that we actually do? We pack it all up till we become a volcano of feelings. 

We all know the difference between us and the animals. We can speak, we can express. But are we really using this precious gift properly? May be No!

Now we have this something which we usually refer as “Communication gap”. These days people show their sadness in the social media, because we feel its difficult to confront or confess in front of the person, even with the person who's living in the next door or the person who's just a call away.

Communication has gained a great platform on social media, but it has no place in the real world!!

People are trying to maintain snapchat streaks instead of maintaining a constant real friendships!

People are having all the conversations in group chats, instead of group gatherings!

Proposals are made online, invitations are sent in WhatsApp, self growth is showed off in Facebook, breakups are exhibited on Instagram stories and our day to day happenings are well potrayed on Snapchat stories. 

And incase there’s a message a person has to convey to another person , surely it'll be in a form of a post on Facebook. 

Even with having 500 followers on Instagram and making 1000 friends on Facebook, it’s sad to accept that the person feels so lonely.

But when you're finally ready to burst out the feelings packed up inside your heart, you'll back out thinking "It's ok No one will understand me n my thoughts". And end up wishing that it would be soo good if telepathy existed as a way to convey my thoughts to people.

It’s actually pity to watch people being trapped in this genre of extensive-flaunting-of-emotions-on-social-media. And the irony is that social media was supposed to bring people closer.

I have a very basic question, why do people find it so difficult  to speak out directly, but feel very easy to put up a post on social media , clearly describing their desperation to emote , and that too with a very captivating caption, “so true” ?

Some people find it difficult to emote bcz of their past experiences , may be bcz they have expressed a way too much in the past. For all such people, a small suggestion , each time you speak , you let out a part of that anxiety that you hold within.. So try speaking instead of holding within!

Maybe we all find it easier to blame, to curse , to probably hold onto things than to let go, by simply having a friendly conversation.

Where a lot of misunderstandings can be sorted out through a conversation, many problems can be solved by all means of communication... Yess!  why can’t our problems be solved by simply conversing?

      Some people say it's a generation gap that’s disrupting the relation between children and their parents. I say it’s the the "communication gap, not the generation gap!" Children find its comfortable to hide things instead of making a brave move like discussing that in front of their parents.

Mostly they are the children who grow up to post terribly depressing posts on social media at 3 in the morning, where at such a time when they were supposed to be in a deep sleep.

Well , I don’t understand that why is it so difficult to call and speak or meet and speak and so easy to post a picture, apparently saying the same fucking thing that you want to speak? Why do we want the entire world to know that we are sad, confused, heart broken, sick, in-love, happy or hungry?

Is a single person not sufficient?

Hmmmm In the end I'll just highlight the points that I have been trying to explain or make you all understand.. 

Firstly people have stopped expressing,

And Secondly people have started expressing a way too much.

In short, it's kind of Real world exists only in our virtual imagination!!
