The Disease

THE DISEASE

BY

Apurva Sanjay Malewar

Loneliness is a disease. It's like a plague that eats you up from the inside, drives you insane,
Sanity can be lost for those who find themselves lonely. Loneliness creates evil if not embraced. It gives birth to a wandering mind that wavers through the times of the past and the pain endured.

Now withholding the powers of the past, and embracing pain, most instances of being lonely is a loss of
emotion, there is rage burning with fury, from the cinders of hell, there is contempt and prejudice in the hearts to those who are amongst the depths of loneliness,
Its a misery that will last long and strong unless there exists, a positive distraction.

Its hard to occupy oneself during the times of loneliness, especially when one does not have the means to indulge themselves in simple pleasures. This world has come down to the depths of greed and hunger for fortune. Fortune that has no shine, only something that gives rise to pain and anger. Greed has caught the minds to indulge in the evils and vices of man, killing all emotions and looking the other way and walking away.

Betrayal is a companion, when man eyes greed, and is thirsty for easy fortune, that brings him just satisfaction, though not for long. His need is satiated, but his vices still remain.
What could a lonely man do? We all look at life like we have seen it all, we talk a lot on the blissful of times or keep complaining of the pain that we went through,
could anyone compare that to a disease? Loneliness is one such disease, it’s carcinogenic, a cancer…

When one does not have the basic means to battle loneliness, with what we call a few crumbs of fortune that fall by, the left over’s of the rich, the half eaten carcass, that the lonely are allowed to scavenge upon. For those who find it hard to comprehend, It’s the copper coins that we need to live by with. These small drops of fortune when fall on us, through our own labor, we call it a necessity. Necessity to live life and enjoy a few minutes of pleasure that we can have in life. The sweat and toil that we endure, the burning nerves that we stand by with, during the times of hard and tiring labor, we are allowed a little leisure.

A lonely man will not ask for much, a little company, a little laughter, and some bread, other necessities like a home, clothes, come secondary, as long as there is a companion in the form of a friend, wife, son, acquaintance, anyone... the lonely would embrace. His heart cries to be loved, to be wanted, he longs to feel the warmth of another individual,
not the flesh eating maggots that exists but just plain fascinating conversations, humorous laughter that we could share and the idea of someone listening to you during the times of our need, times when we feel low, and we need someone to listen to us.

We find a friend in everyone, we find a brother, a mother, and we find someone who we could relate to.
Everyone in life should go through this disease, to appreciate the people they have, around them, the value these great souls give to the spirit in us, is immense.

I feel elated this day that I went through this disease, and am getting cured every day by making new friends, and only those friends who really deserve to be there. These are people who have gone through it all, they have been infected with this disease and they sure do appreciate the cure.

We all need each other, to stand by, to live by, and to show each other that we exist; the presence of such people in itself is heavenly. Its like the gods coming to bless us with their presence, it means a lot to those who really can see the true realities of having such good people.

Sometimes loneliness drives one to such petrifying levels of insanity that, I would say, I do recall a few people embracing sadness, and they being overflowing themselves in grief the surrounds negativity, always whining, crying and complaining... which goes throughout, never stops.

Why do they do this, because they fail to see what lies ahead, they fail to see that there are people willing to come close and listen to them, but the mere fact of a normal behavior, scares others to their wits, of them driving themselves mad, if they had to come and spend time with such souls who do not appreciate company.
Some lonely people are so eaten up by the maggots of this disease that they find nothing positive, and show no improvement of cure.

They stick to people like leeches, they stalk their friends and acquaintances, and this scares away the people who really want to help them out. That I would say is the last resort, and that would lead to death by suicide or death by loneliness.

Lets all appreciate the family, friends and the people that are there, yes we have to be aware of who we are with, but the fact that people accept us and share their lives with us, is a blessing.

Appreciate it....
