I am a Loner
(Slight request from my side,
Do Read -
1) I am an Office Worker Then,
Before reading this story.)**
Those
days are long gone where a social gathering isn't a thing anymore. I am a
people person, and with that comes the urge to do a lot of bad things with my
known associates. I am suffering from FOMO (Fear
Of Missing Out). I was always in the shadow, sheltered by my family, siblings,
and lovers. My wife, however, never try to hold me off. I was free when I was
married. How strange is that? But, on the other hand, you might have noticed
"was" in that sentence as well. I am not proud of that. I damaged
that relationship way before I got the bug of music. I always felt bad for
myself that I never even consider the fact that she might have been facing some
issues as well. I wasn't a person whom she deserved to have. I was just there,
doing nothing. Now, "what did
it cost? Everything"
Reading
about my previous experiences has got me thinking about how much of a loser I
was? And I got worse. I was an Office Worker, a Guitarist, but why wasn't I a
sibling, husband, or a father? Because I am a loner. Thinking-back there is no
particular moment that can excuse my ignorance towards my family. I made
friends, people who are close to me and help me whenever they can, and for
them, I am willing to do anything, "Where
are they now? was it all my fantasy?"
The sad thing about this is, they don't care. I am not a sibling, father, son, or
husband to them. But wait, I was a sibling, father, son, and husband to
someone. And I didn't put an equal effort in my relationship. We, as a society,
put a lot of effort into thinking, "what
others might think of us?" I
guess it doesn't matter once you know that "you can't win no matter what?" "That Being Said" today is my birthday, and to
my surprise, also the day I am officially divorced. "Talk about bad timing, am I right?" The child's custody went to the mother as I am not
capable of raising a child. As a man who still lives with his parents at the
age of 36, I would say they are "on
point."
I
am not real. I am just a manifestation of a writer who truly enjoys writing.
However, I hope you guys know that doesn't mean there isn't any lesson to
learn. You are all going to have the opportunity to choose between personal
Amusement or quality family time. Answering this question is way too easy,
although most of you already choose Amusement over the family. Depression is a
significant problem, but loneliness is the root of that problem. Try talking to
your family member first before losing it to your FOMO. You
can't be everywhere. You have to let go of some things.
** Try to help people that are suffering from depression, loneliness, and FOMO problem.
