A forgotten question: ‘How do you feel?’

“I am a fragile girl in this plastic world”

Thats right , i am not a barbie and this is not a barbie world. It’s a plastic world. For many aspects ; feelings , conversations, movies,series and medias .. basicly the living style is so plastic so superficial.
When did the people stop talking about their feelings loudly? When did the crying is labelled as a shamed one ? Why when i started talking about love and emotions people looked at me like i am a joke? When did these people forget to say sincerely ‘how are you’ , ‘ how do you feel’ ?
I dont have the answers but i think this is not our essence , this transformation should be ended.
This is a very sneaky situation, sometimes it can starts with a reaction that you are afraid to give in the school garden and sometimes at the dinner table.
‘One should ask yourself how many times she couldn’t hear her voice.’

In fact , our essence is so familiar with feelings, laughter and hopes. I can see the lights in some eyes, i can feel the excitement in some hearts..
We are one , we can feel , you know me and i know you so why all these walls?
When did you build those walls there?
I remember all prejudices.First times i tried to fight them , later i tried to ignore but none of them had a solution .
Essentially , there is only one solution, there was always, to be whole. To accept every cell, every part of you.
I know maybe we’ve heard many times about self-acceptance
How is that really gonna happen?
Talking like that, talking about your feelings, his feelings,her feelings, your sisters feelings, your mom’s feelings.. maybe you will start with a whisper, but then you will encounter places you don’t know.
And i choose to be whole today, as every day, every day as I remind myself.Meeting yourself and accepting it can be one of the most magical things in this world.
Magic..meeting your surroundings from scratch, mother nature is starting to look different to you, you are against all kinds of ‘plastic’ that exist.
Embracing your deeper side,
Being your voice,
The magic begins like this way .. ,

With love S.
