How can we expect people to be
honest and truthful when we don't
feel comfortable or even debunk
them if they are being themselves. I
am not even starting on,- us being
honest-, that's yet another
question mark.
I caught myself a dozen times judging him, his
emotions, myself & my reactions, my unspoken
resistance, nonverbal discomfort and the
eagerness to end the conversation. I realized how
his truth was making me uncomfortable.
After disconnecting the call, I felt like a hypocrite
and probably because at that moment I was.
was speaking to a gentleman regarding
certain emotions and discussing how
vulnerable we are when it comes to
addressing or even acknowledging emotions
as we go through life.
It seems it becomes even more difficult with
age, since more is expected. As if, as we age
we become the wizard of OZ and should
never ever make any mistakes.
Age seems to be waiting to punish us and asks us
to become a superhero of a kind. Age seems to
take away the freedom of being human. Every new
year of life comes with a stronger form of the
same condition & it reads; 'no more mistakes'.
As he was expressing what he felt for different
people at different times, I was aware of how the
rawness of his statements was making me feel
uneasy.
