Justification!

I was late. No new story. I tried explaining and Sir refused to listen to it.

No no, he doesn’t know that I’m always late, so I could be late on that day only, but he still didn’t listen to me. The point is: maybe my two wheeler got a punctured tier in the morning; maybe someone is ill in my family today and so I had to handle that situation; maybe it was a kind of emergency that needed my morning’s time and I couldn’t explain which kind of emergency that was. But why didn’t he listen to me? Why are there always those people who don’t need any explanations and are always negatively looking at the situations? Even if I’m lying, can’t they listen to my bluffing to have some fun!? (Yeah, I’ve seen these people too, lol!)

And then there are people like me who needs explanation in every case. Every case, literally! I mean, I’m there telling my Mi to make some food and when she changes the recipe, I want the explanation! When Paa says I can’t do that particular thing, I need an explanation why I can’t do that! (Is it because I’m a girl? Huh! Lol!) I need the explanations and I need the justifications.

I had a problem with this. Seeking for answers and saying how I feel was leading no where. Besides, I heard that you don’t need justifications when you’re close to someone. Yeah, I was sad because of this line. The thing is, you believe in yourself but no one does in you more than you do! And that’s the point: no one knows why you believe in yourself! There’s no justification for them.

Even you can’t define what it is to you, but try explaining things to others and you’ll realise that by doing that, you’re answering yourself too. When you’re stuck somewhere and can’t find the way out, ask others and say where you want to go; that’s actually the time when you’ll realise that you’re lost.

So, here I’m changing the philosophical line upside down: you need justifications only when you’re close to someone! Tda! This is it! Try explaining your reason to those negative people who don’t want to listen a word why you’re late and your explanations won’t matter! Try advising those who don’t come asking for one, and you’ll realise how much it hurts when you’ve spread your gyan with these non-sensible  people. (Here, keep in mind that there are two types of people: one are those who actually need your advice {they may say bad to you for your honesty but will realise somehow and will follow your advice soon} and two who are there just to pour their heart out in the name of getting your advice which they will not gonna follow!) Try justifying why you forgot her birthday and she’ll leave the real anger/pain by accepting that mug of coffee! Try to make your parents understand why you won’t be doing what they want in your future and it will take some time but they will get your point saying “It’s all about you!”… It’s all about pampering your heart! (Perhaps with a silly clarification!)

When I say I’m in search of justifications, I mean I need answers for all the crimes; for why India was rich and now so poor; why we can’t find another Earth or why we aren’t taking much steps to save her. I need the answer why you have seen my message and not have replied me soon; I need to know why the cab driver has cancelled my ride and why someone touched my food!

This may seem irritating, but I don’t care. As long as you have the answers, it’s the other one who’s getting bored of answering you! And it’s obvious that it calms both of you – you have said, s/he has heard, now go back to your routine. It’s up to you how you describes and then up to the listener as what s/he gets… but then, just leave it at that. You did your best, and maybe listening to you was emotional, or fun, or just nice, or fake/wrong!

Chances are 3/4 and you’ll love to take a chance on adding someone to your list of your listeners. Chances are 3/4 that you’ll feel good listening to someone’s answers today..!
