It’s been 2 years since I started going to college. I am a person who is around you all and makes friends with everyone. I am a normal human being just as anyone. You will never know my pain until you are my best friend. Until that time good luck in finding me. I am a person who smiles from outside and cries from inside. I make people laugh because I don’t want them to be where I am. I am a person who will help others even though I know I can’t handle things. I am a person who sees others’ problems more than my own. I am a person who cries to sleep everyday but I love my life and I know I have a reason that God has made me last so long. It’s not that others don’t like me but I feel that way because my mom and dad passed away. I feel sad for that when I think about it. So I keep getting into relationships which do not last. The girls think I am crazy because they do not understand. I am what I am is all that I say. It’s not easy to see another day, but when I do I thank God for it and make use of it to help people feel better. I love to sing and dance, I have never missed a day. I love music just like others and feel sad again. I have grandiose thoughts sometimes but I keep them to myself. I have gone to therapists but it makes no sense. I use the Bible as my guide everyday, to keep my sanity in the reality. I would love to share my story here because I know people feel the same way and to help them know that they are not alone in their lives. College has made me feel worse about myself because all my teachers have made fun of me am much as the days went. It’s a disgrace on how I managed to survive. I have one more year to be brave. I know once my story is done people are going to judge me. But it’s ok. It’s my life and I love it. I want to be the one helping others who are in depression and want to talk not being known to anyone. Thanks to this platform to help me share my story.
I came to Kolkata from a small town to pursue my studies and to enjoy my young adult life. After 1 year, I suddenly thought of earning and learning as I was passionate about cooking, paintings, dancing and singing. I decided that I was going to take up cooking as my profession and open a restaurant.
Gaming improves your puzzle solving skills, improves decision making, opens up many career opportunities, major stress buster, broadens your general knowledge on multiple topics, the list goes on. But as anything in life, too much of it and it can take you down a dark path. It can lead to self-isolation, addiction and if you’re not careful, it can blow a big hole in your wallet. It should be balanced like everything else.
My most important mantra is ‘Make progress an obsession’. Go out and pursue your dreams even though odds are stacked up against you. Whatever job we take on hand our entire focus should be on perfection rather than attention.
