This February, I went off to Periyar for a week on my own.<BR/>Before I went, whoever I told this to, almost always shot out, "With who??"<BR/>I'd smile amused and tell them, "With myself."<BR/>Even while there, I met people who were amazed to see a young girl travelling ALONE and looked at me with great admiration and wonder.<BR/><BR/>Two weeks back I went to Goa. Alone. My social circle thinks I'm mad, that can't believe it. Hehehehe...<BR/><BR/>Last weekend, we had lovely weather and I mostly stayed home with myself and spent time with myself doing things that don't require the involvement of other people.<BR/><BR/>These moments with myself are rare. I don't spend as much time with myself as I'd like to. Bu when I do, it's fun.<BR/><BR/>It doesn't matter if people don't understand that we're enough for ourselves. What do you expect in a country where the sole purpose of life for people is a matrimonial union with the opposite sex?Raginihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05698797135464508351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3565198311856740270.post-12663089988314579012008-06-07T19:35:00.000+05:302008-06-07T19:35:00.000+05:30So very true.

But then maybe, you are being judged, and sympathized with, by the social cirle that you have. There's a whole other single-friendly world, too, where a girl sans a boyfriend, and simlilarly, a guy without a girlfriend, are looked upon very normally, and there's no peer pressure to feign love that does not exist. Come to think of it, given the circumstances that you are in, it's all a question of how well you can handle peer pressure, and make yourself imprevious to such trivialities, that are, otherwise, made such a big affair of. It's not such a big issue after all, being single!<BR/><BR/>Gosh! Can I yak!Lol, over and out.stealing_demonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04168037182121199026noreply@blogger.com
