Sometimes you show a happy face....Enjoy the moments with everyone and make people feel happy about themselves......But there is some intense pricking sensation inside you.....Something is bothering you...or everything is.....you have suppressed it for long enough now....can't take it any more.
And then you end up taking an impulsive decision. It can be as simple as going for a walk or reading a book you had bought but abandoned long back or having a cuppa coffee with an old friend (who you secretly have a crush upon), or just going to the bar with some office folks and gulp down a beer or two.
Does the beer solve the problem? Actually it can create a few for you, if you drink too much and hook up with a wrong girl or even worse, pick fight with a guy double your size....may it be the beer or a cuppa, what actually solves your problem is the change in mindset. It gives you a break, a much needed one. Many a times the solution is so simple that your overworked brain is not ready to accept it. You think things through and you are very good at planning ahead and all that project management jargon, but a plain simple fact is that you are overworked. It can be your professional life or personal or a combination of these. You haven't taken a break in a long time and by a break does not necessarily mean a vacation (think about the wrinkles on your face seeing your bank statement the EMIs you pay to Club Mahindra for those lavish holidays which are supposed to relax you ). Break means a pause for the mind, a time when you cleanse your soul, squeeze all the garbage out of your brains and start afresh. Much like a flush of a toilet. However stupid or simple it may sound but it is required.
So stop rubbing your forehead for the 'n'th time and stop spreading the negativity around. Take a break, have a cuppa or a mug (a pitcher if you can handle :) ) and get back in life......
Life is small, enjoy every moment...nothing is more important than your happiness. :)
