Are you an extremely sensitive person? Can a slight, rude remark set off a torrent of tears from your eyes? Do your eyes become moist at the thought of leaving home and staying at a new place? Do you cry when a close friend ignores you? And, do you feel embarrassed when someone notices that you cried? If the answer to the last questions is 'yes', read on.

How to let the world assume that you are all right when you are actually choking:
1. Take the weather's help. If it's cold, say "I think I'm catching a cold. My eyes are watering". If it's hot, splash your face with water and leave it wet.
2. If you are living in a city that is rich in flora, like Bangalore, say " I'm allergic to pollen". Else, you can even blame the dust!
3. If you have long hair, leave it loose so as to cover your face.
4. Sing aloud a rock song.
5. Show off that you are a protective elder sister or brother. Talk to your sibling about how his/her studies is going on. You could give all the gyaan on handling the exam pressure.
Do this; people around will think you are perfectly ok. After a while, you'll actually be all right! :)
PostScript: Do not try to act smart with your Mom. She'll somehow know that you are sad.

Current Song:
Payal by Jal (Album : Boondh )
Kaanch ke thhe saaare vaade
Rishtey ya kachche thhe dhaage
Dil ke taaron ko chhed kar
Tum kahaan chal diye

ReplyDeleteIt would help if you're able to attack the agony with a comical or silly thought. Like an impulse force, it blocks the tears ,at least for the moment
