Homeless!

Home is everywhere.

Yes it is...In a form of relations that we make. And not necessarily it has to be blood relations!

These relations we make, are living homes.

Instant comfort, instant relief, instant safety, instant happiness is what you get. Your worries disappear, your smiles multiply.

These homes make this ruthless life better and bearable. They may not reduce the challenges that you are bound to face, but they certainly strengthen you by making you ready to face them by giving you courage.

And that is what you need to sustain. That is what makes you human.

But time sometimes put these homes to test...and you can see homes getting destroyed, these come crashing down and the pain is unbearable...everything is intangible.

No one except you can see it, feel it and that makes it hard to express let alone acknowledge...recovery is all the more harder.

No JCB can help gather or clear away debries..no any way out to make repairs...no any dog to sniff out you.

You are just lying there, gasping for breath, thinking what and where it went wrong. And why me?

But things don't happen overnight. These homes do drop subtle hints that they are done...and not necessarily that you are at fault always..it may be that they have found their own home somewhere else, you were just an option who was discarded after its utility was over...

You cannot be the only one fighting to save it. There is no point in having homes where there is no reciprocity. You cannot always carry the burden to keep alive that home.

Either way if only that table is open, you wonder.

Table where these homes meet and speak their hearts out without judging or without any prejudices and biases....yes it will hurt but at least you sit and try to talk and sort.

If even that doesn't help it is fine. Efforts were made to mend the things. That kind of parting away won't be that painful. Worst of all is ghosting.

One fine day you wake to find yourself homeless..someone dumped you, someone is being stranger, someone is being passive aggresive..it is all the more painful if it is 'your' home..and it hurts because you are not afforded any chance to comprehend what happened, where and what went wrong.

Either way being homeless is the worst punishment and no one deserves to be homeless. And Pandemic has rendered many homeless.
