Finding a reflection -
I have been blogging since July, 2013 and some 4
months back a reader had commented on my
motivational post and had expressed his opinion about “ FINDING OUR
REFLECTION IN SOMEONE ELSE.’’ We
exchanged our opinions and after what it seemed like a never ending self-opined
debate from both the sides. Our comments ended with a smiley. I had forgotten about all this, but few days back our conversation came back
ringing into my mind and it buzzed like “Finding our reflection in someone else’’
Everyone has their
own unique characteristics and identities. We have our own fair share of
struggles and sufferings. We shall not forget about happy moments too. Yah! I
know we tend to emphasise more on our struggles rather then happy moments
experienced by us. In this journey we do make close acquaintance with friends, colleagues’
close kin’s. There are people whom we may have known for ages but still find it
very difficult to communicate. Speaking our mind and heart with them may seem
like venturing into unknown territory full of doubts. And, sometimes we end up
setting a chord with a person whom we have known just for a while. They are the
kind of people who have seen the world through the same lens. Tough the
intensity or circumstances of pain may have been varied. But it’s with people
who has been in the same shoes we can vent our problems without embarrassment. They
are the ones who listen to our emotional agony with compassion and empathy.
They inspire us selflessly without being judgmental. Their words spread as a
healing balm to our bruised soul and you breathe a new lease of life with their
unconditional support and affection. That’s when we end up making a relation
for lifetime. Though, the journey of life may evaporate their presence. But on a low sultry summer day when you close your eyes
with heavy heart, you will strongly recollect the glory of having met “your
true reflection someday’’
