Attachments mess you up in life. Yes, they do. For sometimes you feel you can master the art of not feeling for someone, but it is easier said than done. Because we are humans, and we love, we get hurt, we have emotions: a pool of emotions, sometimes very difficult to comprehend. We may not be able to put everything down in words, but we feel it. Oh! that word "feeling". It is pretty weird to not be able to make others understand of what you are going through, trying your best to find the suitable words, but it just doesn't happen.. You fail. Once. Twice. Thrice.
And every morning you try to start afresh, thinking this day will not be able to dampen your spirits, but you are only human! So you meet people, and you care for them, you love them and you get 'attached'. and you 'feel', 'feel' strongly, 'feel' a lot. Some of us hide it, some of us don't. But this vicious cycle is more or less the same, there are very few who do not get trapped.
But then rightly said by many, these feelings only differentiate human beings from the other living beings. These emotions give us that an upper edge to be one step ahead. But are we really a step ahead?
In spite of being blessed with a lot of things: both materialistic and non-materialistic, we are unable to make the most of it. Every now and then we see people struggling with the various resources at their disposal: be it a shortage of money, an excess of money, or simply the inability to utilize their knowledge and 'think'. They say feelings can over shadow your process to think! But can it really? I doubt it.
We think when it is not needed, we think when it is needed, we think all the time. We think whether to love someones or not, we think whether to invest in a deal or not; then why do we say that we don't think when we feel. It all goes hand in hand. And obviously complicates matters unimaginably.
The whole idea is to think, understand, feel and then act. Oh! we are back to the feeling part again. Wow ! we are special. We can link anything to anything, and then wonder how did it happen. Only if we could not think too much for a while, and not be driven by the urge to calculate every move we make, will we be able to actually 'feel' the various things life has to offer. It is a beautiful thing: this life, let us put more 'life' into it, let us not worry too much, but feel! Be happy! Be thankful!
