Forced by the world...to be someone else!

There is something in me, a special affinity for children...I feel they are the purest beings on earth..a true reflection of you, me and everyone when we were created and sent to this battlefield...
There is sure a child in me even now..A child who wants to accept every person she comes across as a "nice" person...full of virtues...particularly harmless..

But unfortunately we, who call ourselves "adults" have adulterated this heavenly environment..There are selfish people, who teach you to be "selfish" lest you lose the everyday battles..(Well of lately I have settled on the fact that its not bad to be "selfish"- thanks to ayn rand)..Then there are people who take advantage of your genuinity..Play with it like a toy and always take your goodness "for granted"..So much so that you literally have to run for your life, protect yourself and all that lies within...

The winners are those who look after themselves before anyone else, think about themselves before anything else...Well I certainly don't oppose that school of thought ;but it hurts me to see individuals who go out of their way for others to be ultimately the last ones to complete the "blind" race and be termed as "foolish" by the so-called winners.

These things keep killing the child in me...a child who wants to remain innocent forever, who wants to see things as they are..who wants to love unconditionally like a child, laugh carelessly ,cry away the pain, paint beautiful dreams, pray to God not for favours but because he created me, be convinced of having people around who genuinely care, and never keep a grudge against anyone...

But true as it is, this is too much to expect from a world like this...Keep protecting yourself from people and their ill intentions, "dont" love selflessly, you never know when you would be taken advantage of.Keep judging everyone all the time,you never know what he/she must be upto , "dont" be innocent coz that would make you "foolish"..

Too much to extract from the child in me!

I wish I were a kid...
