A Generation with happy pictures and sad life

It was 1998, a guy born in a mediocre family in Punjab province of Pakistan . In their culture it was a blessing to have a baby boy. The boy have loving parents that can't love each other. However, it was a normal upbringing of the boy like other children. At the age of 5, his journey towards the sorrows of this world begin. He has to bear the seperation of his parents. Isn't it tough for a little child at such a young age to choose with whom he wants to live with. Well he was blessed in a certain way that he got mature at a very young age and he has strong nerves. He bear everything and learn from sorrows and loneliness. He manages to perform well in his Academia. He has a broken family history. When he was in his 9th grade he met a girl, they fell in love. The girl enters his soul and hugs his soul. She started to heal the boy from inside and became a part of his life like a heart to a body. The boy was very responsible even at his youth. He always finds and overthink ways to support his family.

He get good grades in his board examination. Because of his maturity and wisdom he was very dominant in every gathering he goes. He was the "best person to be along with", but deep down anyone know's what he's thinking. How tough is it to be in his shoes? What kind of a lone wolf he is going to become in future. Time passed he was growing like other guys but his experiences were different. At the time kids waiting for their faviorite cartoons, he was learning about life. He was a great observer. His relationship with the girl was the best thing in his life. They're with each other in every matter of life. She was like his backbone. Well it's been 8 years since both of them were in relationship. The guy and girl enter their 20's. Their relationship was ended because the girl's father forcefully push her to marry her one of her friend's son. The guy was broke again. He became suicidal. The bright student ended up being a patient of clinical anxiety and depression with worst physical symptoms. From here the real journey of this guy begins.

He live every night like it was his last night. He can't control his physical symptoms. At this point, he start observing the bigger picture. He start observing other people. Once he thought he was the only guy with such traumas. When he start noticing people, what shocks him that many people around him actually have same traumas in one way or another. It just that there are good at hiding. They wear a smile to hide their tears. He enter in a domain where everything around him feels like fake to him.

The people once he looked up to because on social media they look like they were living the best of their life. The models, influencers, actors everyone were looking so good and full to him. But when he go in-depth he used to know about what kind of misery everyone is facing. Everyone wants to look extra-ordinary in their social media profiles. Models used to cry and take drugs before shooting for one of the best magazines in the world. Guys have to work or fight with their parents just to have an expensive phone because they want to be socially acceptable. Everyone wants to ride the best car, a big house, a faviorite job that they think one day is going to save the world.

What is the main reason behind all this hastle to look better, to have better, to earn more and more even though you have enough. It's because we are afraid of being our ownselves. We want to join the crowd. We desire for acceptance. We have false expectations. We think by heart and feel through brain. We are at the peak of materialism. For short term pleasures we ruin the real happiness. We buy whatever the corporates are spoon feeding us with. "Buy this sofa, it'll take you to mars by patting it 3 times, it has built in oxygen pod", sure why not, atleast the world's best brand is selling it.

Now the boy from the start of the story wants to tell you something. Don't let social media fool you. Educated women with decency are still winning. You don't need to have a sharp jawline to get accepted by a certain women. If you want to enjoy with your friends, you still can ride in an old ride and have the best time of your life. Being your ownself is never old-fashioned, on the contrary you're bringing more value to this world. If you want to be someone attractive start being your ownself. Be straight forward about your opinions. People always notice the person who is not following the crowd. You are here for a purpose and for sure that purpose isn't to hustle for acceptance.
