How do we all simply drift with time?
Even if we have a few minutes free, we tend to open some videos to scroll through. We get an impression of being busy only achieving mediocre results.
This long weekend, I am experimenting with not watching any series or movies. Watch only meaningful content and have that free time in hand to feel just free. Do chores that come to mind and get back to a free state.
Now consider this sequence of events!
1. Have spent two good years with family during the pandemic
2. I Moved to a New City a month ago
2. It's a long weekend and two days have gone by. Independence day is being celebrated around.
3. Cooking and enjoying meals on my own.
No doubt that I am now homesick and want to be with family and friends!
It takes time to make friends in a new place. It is a massive society with thousands of flats. However, hardly people talk to each other. One remarkable fact is that this society is near to my office. I won't be surprised if at least one-third of them are working in the same company as mine. However, still there is a dearth of friends around.
Is this the phase, in which people decide to get married? Could be, this thought is crossing my mind. However, why would I want to be one person throughout his life? I am selfish to imagine that mine will be bigger than his... haha
I am fortunate that I have friends who are just a call away. I talked to a few of them today. There is an independence celebration in the society tomorrow. I look forward to socializing.
I can recall one Katha by Sant Maskeen Singh Ji in which he elaborated that all of us long for one support who is available to us all days 24x7. It is something intrinsic to human nature. Maybe I am longing for the same being distant from family. From what he explained, only such permanent support can be Almighty!
