What is it with us these days? We've all got the latest technology in our hands, smartphones, laptops, tablets, and still instead of being more connected than ever in the human history, we're the loneliest human beings to have ever lived. Why are we allowing ourselves to drown inside our negative thoughts? Do we realise that we are not the only ones that feel this way. I have a feeling that everyone feels like this or at least has felt once in his life like this. We check Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, Tumblr, whatever apps there are, and we only log out of them feeling sadder than before. It must have to do with the fact that we log in to see what's happening with certain people and then we end up dissapointed because we find out stuff that we didn't want to see in the first place. Perhaps your crush( the love of your life maybe, I don't know) got a new girlfriend or something, maybe your bff is hanging out with the wrong people, maybe your sister got tagged on a pic where you see another side of her, or maybe you read a quote that is way too sad but fits your life perfectly. I don't know, maybe you've even been through all of these stages, but then you realise that there is always another human being out there going through the same stuff. Hell maybe even the people that make you sad, feel sad for themselves, but they're trying to impress people by smiling sweetly in every pic. Maybe we are all trying to hide our deepest sorrows by trying to create another life for ourselves, a virtual life. But the thing is, it has gone way too far. So far that sometimes you question yourself, whether you believe their real life personalities are more real, or their virtual ones. I don't know what are we doing?! So connected but so lonely. We really are all in this together aren't we? We really are 'together alone'. Sigh. All I can say is that I saw his picure again. He's smiling ear to ear with a beautiful girl by his side. He's got his arms around her, his eyes are smiling too, but there is something in their darkness that people might not have noticed. But I have. It's as if he too, is trying to convince people that he has finally found 'the one'. But I can see through that darkness of his eyes. He's trying just a little too hard. What is he missing though? She's smart, very smart from what I hear, beautiful, gorgeous, she has dark eyes too, almost similar to his. Still there's something behind the endless darkness of his eyes. I wish I could say it's the memory of me. But I know it's not, so I have to be real here. We were never even together. We had the kind of relationship that is 'more than friends, less than a couple'. So yeah. I logged out sad today too, like a billion other people around the globe. But hey it's our time now. We're together alone, living in the century of the greatest technologic developement, the century of humankind progression, yet the Century of Loneliness.
