Life In a Notebook

I have always been longing to get the gist of the line I’ve heard and I’m pretty sure you might have as well had that, “The world is full of people with different characters and temperaments”.
So, my fanatic personality tried to break this whole change in character course and went on a journey (dramatic figure of speech because theatre… irony much?) to understand why people think it is important to have contrasting personalities.
Will it baffle you if I say that your personalities are what you think you lack in yourself?
Will it astound you if I say that your lack of self-awareness is what makes you envious of others and makes you develop a completely different version of yourself?
Maybe, maybe not.
For those who are both baffled and astounded, I love your honesty.
Meanwhile, for others who do not agree but kept on reading, I love your commitment.

We are different when we are at our workplace, different when we are with our friends and family and completely different when we are alone. Of course, the question arises, isn’t that obvious Aadhya? We cannot be having an informal attitude in front of our boss, but the plot twist is, I am not talking about your formal and informal behavior but the person behind all those character curtains.
Why do you think in order to get that job you need to be a totally made-up character who is a hundred percent dedicated and has no shortcomings?
Why do you think in order to be with that person, you need to be like them? Get some similarities between the both of you?
Why do you think in order to get accepted by a high society social group, you need to be premium like them?
Why do you think that in a population of billions, you will not get what you want because you are being yourself?
The answer Is that “you don’t know” or maybe “you just do it “and my most favourite argument is “because , the world is designed the way so.”
No, no, and a big no. You have designed your mindset like this. The world consists of people like you who have a similar contemplation and I am not blaming you because different characters arise from different tragedies.
I am sorry if you did not get the job you wanted even though you were qualified because maybe you did not do the right wordplay.
I am sorry if that person did not want to be with you because you were too much for them even though you gave it all.
I am sorry if you did not get to be the part of that particular circle you always wanted because you were too different.
I am sorry that because of others, you had to create a different version of yourself and carry it everywhere with you.
But the moment you accept your weakness without sugar coating it is when you put a better foot forward to validate it.
The moment you realize that the beauty of two people being unlike is that they are nothing alike.
The moment you get that whoever and whatsoever made this universe with those beautiful mountains, rivers, waterfalls, forests, and animals for some reason also made one of you for the same is the day you begin a new life, a life without any character, a life without any burden.
Embrace your exhaustion, your anger, your weird likings, your dreams that make others laugh at you, and most importantly embrace your original character, the no filter, no burdened character.
So go out there, and start a new life.
