Blame it on the planets and moon!

We all go through mood swings, right? It could be the environment, the people we hang out with, or maybe the moon is just having a good laugh at our expense. Seriously, because who doesn’t love blaming the moon for their existential crisis?

Anyway, I've been on a wild ride lately. What makes perfect sense in my head sounds like I’m trying to communicate with extraterrestrials to everyone else. Sweety was the unfortunate recipient of one of my epic monologues, and she just stared at me like I’d sprouted antennae. “Dude, are you okay?” she asked. Honestly, at this point, I might need a translator.

While I don't remember the exact words of what I told her, however the zest of it is this

- We are all prisoners here of our times, prisoners to attachments all around us.

- Life should be about detachment, being so stone cold that no emotion ever impacts us and such that even icebergs are jealous.

- Gita also talks about neither rejoicing on obtaining what is pleasant nor grieving on obtaining what is unpleasant. It also talks about abandoning attachment, act with body, mind, intelligence, and even with the senses, only for the purpose of purification.

- Good - Bad is totally relative! People who do good check out early because even the tiniest good deed counts in Kaliyug, god says even small amounts of good is enough

- there are 3 sides to every story, my side, your side and the perspective of the person watching the two of us. Well it may seem no one is watching but after all, it is god's script, how can he not be watching when we are putting up the best act of our lives

Any way Sweety wonders what's wrong with me.. her last words were " U have gone into some mood! Waiting for stars and planets to change their position soon." "Just be present and enjoy life as it comes. Dont overthink. U only told when u stop thinking, things happen.", "Ok fine tell me when u ready to talk again. Until then u do what u have to do. I’ll wait"

I don't know what caused this, but I may have just evolved beyond comprehension, or I am reading too much of Gita and Osho. Was reading this recently - OSHO . Knowingly or unknowingly, I may have chosen the second option and It has had a profound impact on me.

I get it, people don't like to talk to me when I am in this zone, but hey, I want to be stone-cold on emotions and care less :)
