A WAY TOWARDS HOME
Have you ever felt an urge to rush home as soon as you can?
Something like which happens when you are sad, you get to feel that the whole
world is illusion, you are distorted and the only thing that seems real, that
belongs to you is your home and people who stay there. Your voice just breaks
and you couldn’t think of anything because you mind is flooded with negative
thoughts. At that time all you see is your home, you try to complete the
journey merely in the thought of reaching home at some moment and some day.
I personally hate being at home on Sundays, I always have
arguments with my parents over something or other and I end up hating the
holiday! But, somewhere between the lines I cannot deny the fact that, when I
am completely broken mentally, the only place I find comfort is at home. I
don’t talk to my friends neither hang around anywhere; I just feel like rushing
home and talk to the woman who is waiting for me over lunch. I might not share
what is wrong with me, but somehow for their sake and the love that they give
me, I smile. I forget the stress that I am suffering from, all I feel like is
talking to her and snuggling into my blanket.
You know when things are in order, we are least bothered
about home and people inside it. We care about ourselves while they still care
about us. We scream and shout and do all sorts of tantrums – “I want to run
away from these people” (my punch line) but the real value of home is realized
only when we feel disillusioned with world and we find no escape anywhere.
Therefore, the comfort level that we get at home cannot be given by any place
in the world. This is because not only our home but also the people, our
parents our siblings, belong to us. It is the only place where we can open out
our heart and cry out, unafraid of being noticed and laughed by anyone.
