Will the Flower Bloom Far Away from the Roots?
Over the years I have never been clear with the whole funda of growing up. It requires lots of energy, letting go, standing up for yourself, etc. but, the one that confuses me the most is the whole INDEPENDENT part. Sometimes it's a fear of mine but most of the time I am more confused about how that would unfold.
We all know that being independent is being on your own without anyone guiding you all the time. So here's what I think about the same:-
Sometimes I wonder if I'll grow upright apart from my first circle. Those who hold my hands and taught me how to run won't, and now I would be learning to speed up without being dependent on someone. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I don't believe in independence. Yes, I do. I believe in learning, inculcating, improving, and growing values first-handedly, but how would I survive away from home? Home here is the loved ones. The ones who care, or the ones who just stick around, not being a part of my adulthood regularly freaks me out. Undoubtedly, independence will mean meeting new people, but what if it turns out like ‘the flower doesn't broom out away from the roots.’ That's a very metaphorical saying. It's more of a 5 out of 100 saying but, what if independence does not come in the best way possible. (At the end of the day it's based on risk.) What if this is not the time to take up that risk if I am a slow learner. I don't want independence to come too late or come at par. If independence starts with a huge emotional self, when I can break myself to an extent by hearing the Arijit Singh playlist, then I can wait for more till I am ready there (only if we could see the future). On the other hand, I wish I could see the future just to get clarification and achieve independence in the best way possible.
I might be overthinking too here. It's not like I am not going to stay connected through the phone or something but the love might not be touched the same. (love will be the same but might not be rightly felt apart.)
After all these, it's not like I will step back. I will unfurl this part of adulting but it kind of triggers me. It's just hard sometimes to see all of these coming too soon. For the most part, it's weird for me that I am overthinking this very topic which is far from reality at this particular point.
Well, maybe that's my cue to stop this topic right now. But, I am quite excited to bring up part 2 of the same topic when the event is too close to my overthinking mind and into the real world.
Until then, the quote to stick by is 'stops overthinking maybe?' xD
