Not a mere spectator.

Sometimes it just feels right to talk your heart out to certain people not knowing whether or not it is actually right, but the feeling gets you to pour your heart out. It could do two things – One, make you feel so much better without even knowing it or two, mess up your head contemplating whether or not you’ve done the right thing by trusting that person so much with something so delicate. When you’re on the listening end, it could again do two things, one, make you feel heaps better knowing that you could be there for someone and that you are trusted enough for someone to tell you something so personal or two, get mind-fucked thinking about all that he or she has been through and imagine yourself in that situation; the latter being the more frequent of the two. Here I was on the listening end and I have to say I was moved, moved by the strength of that girl who has been through so much. People that emerge out of that situation of having gone through 'shit' and want to live; who want to see the good in the world are the ones who have seen the possible worst. They are people who possess not only the determination and zeal to overpower every ghastly incident but fight it and live a life they’ve dreamed off. Those are the people who achieve and do great things in life. They are achievers, not mere spectators who feel helpless by circumstances.
