TOXIC AFFAIRS
A minute autumn bridge was welcomed onto the main passage
with the open doors as an invitation to house warming. The guests were first
welcomed by the burning of the fire place and the dog let out a sneeze as if
sensing something horrible was going to happen. The blowing wind felt like a
light drizzle in many parts of the heart. Coconuts fell in its adolescence and
birds chipping away felt a heavy grief bestowed upon them as their nests with
the little one’s in the egg got swiped right up the branch and down in the big
rock, that crumbled the life growing inside them. Some people far away from all
of these who lived their own life enjoyed the day with a warm cup of coffee and
a book by their side posting their pictures on instagram captioned as “Such a
romantic weather. #Coffee #Books #Instagram #RomanticWeather”
Such a great time to be alive, an age of huge
contradictions, where arguments are won over a bit of tears, where an innocent
logic is buried alive by the raised voice, however meaningless the words may
be. It’s a great time to be alive where people choose alcohol over talking out
about misunderstanding, where a child whose father just had his last breath is
taunted for his condition. Where talking about sex is still a taboo and porn
gets banned for the increase in rape cases. It’s amazing to see how people
hesitate to speak about suicide and mental health after all we have been though.
We live in a time where everyone gets their emotions bottled up and start
looking for the opener to the feelings which are under more pressure than a
bottle of Champagne.
We are too eager to
judge but there is no one to blame. It’s normal for a healthy person to have
perceptions on the basis of things we see and hear. Its fine to conclude deductions
and clear things out before a rumor spreads. The problem here lies in the
passage of information. It’s already so
toxic that no one wants to hear to what others have to say but it gets worse
when people involved in the conversation feel it as a contest they have to win
anyhow and the story starts to spin off. A rumor gets spread and lives can get
destroyed. This has been passing on from ancient human times. In the past these
things used to go over the water source, nowadays we got a bigger platform,
more private, with optimum secrecy but still equal disadvantages, the social network.
You don’t have to worry about a third person listening to you over here,
You can have a one to one competition on who has the best screwed up life ever,
You don’t have to go to the funeral of your neighbor because #RIP, right? You
can make a life over screw it over a tap of a finger.
What about friendship? You can still see where the crack is,
can’t you?
“Are you even friends if you hadn’t had a fight once?” Like really? I can’t even think of things to say about this. Give me your opinions on this.

Anyways are friendships usually that strong that last long? What
if over the course of time one changes and the other doesn’t? What do you do
then? Is it betrayal to say?
Who is to blame when the leaf falls of a tree during autumn? Is it leaf’s fault that it withers or tree that isn’t strong enough to hold it during that difficult of time? Hard to answer, eh?

The peak of ignorance, realizing that it isn’t happening to
me, well not yet and the bliss of ignorance tremors over the fear of judgment and it blends
perfectly to give rise to situations *and some has tag trends which I’m totally
supportive of btw but still hesitate to mention because {I don’t even know a
way to complete this sentence in a way that’ll offend nobody}* that’ll create a
situation of chaos both in the introvert
and extrovert society where learning things will be much below to boasting
about how little you can do of them,
where posting a picture of a book is much more important because nobody can smell
the ink on that book that still gives out that pleasant vibe to some people,
where people need to be impressed more than loved and still on top of this the ‘send
this post/ story’ has seen more of terrible sides of people on group chats
where privacy ends and sentiments are murdered with that exact imaginary
hypothesis that is must to bind all the people, the ability to conclude.
