This post has been deleted and re-written enough times after which it has been lying in the 'draft' section for well over a year now. About time I made a final few changes to it and put it up for the cyber space to see.
It wasn't enough. they said they wanted the truth but they forgot that sometimes you have to lie because the truth is not enough. Sometimes, you have to do things you do not want to because doing what you want is not enough, you have to go out of your way and change yourself completely just to get that one person's love because you know you will never be enough, You can't help feling what you do. You did not choose this but you can't escape it either. You know why? This is because you've been hurt so many times that now you wish to stay hurt in hopes of getting comfortble someday. You learn that pain may not be temporary, but you are. You learn that after a night of amazing enjoyment and having no worries you get pushed down deep into your shell. You realize that what you thought was yours is what is killing you. Slowly. Painfully. Like a dagger being inserted into your heart by your best friend. I'm sure that is what you were expecting to read. It's true but is it the entire truth? I say otherwise.
We as people have been conditioned subconsciously over decades and centuries that there will be a happy ending, that the guy up there popularly known as 'God' will make sure everything will be alright and everything that happens, happens for a reason. The truth is, it doesn't. You want to know why you failed? You didn't study. Why did you get dumped? Maybe because you or the other person messed up. Why the friend of decades left/betrayed you? You weren't enough. happy endings are a myth created to let us live in the solace that things have to be okay. Destiny was an idea implanted into our minds well before we could speak. "Destiny got you to us. You'll make us proud someday". "You're destiny's child". "Destiny made you ahead of those with you. Cherish the gift". Bullshit. Destiny is not a delivery man to show up at your door in 30 minutes. Destiny if real, if what takes you to a random door at 3 in the morning when you're intoxicated out of your senses. Destiny is what makes you call a number you thought you never would, speak to a person you probably just saw and didn't even notice. Destiny is the brainchild that takes you where you should be, by taking you one step ahead. Destiny is not the destination, it's the final step. It is a concept created by those who need to believe in a force higher than us to be able to go on.
Destiny much like love and 'forever' is a simple idea we are infatuated with.
