Every person in this world has something that swoons or "obsesses" over. Some people swoon over books, others over movies and others, which is the most common one, boy bands. We all have something that makes us forget where we are and escape our reality. The most common use of it is as a shield, as a defence from the world. I like to call it; "Living in my own bubble."
My "obsession" started way to earlier from most people. I started swooning over things when the "problems" started, when I couldn't understand common matters of life. Every teenager goes through that phase on not carrying about anything but a certain thing. Have you ever noticed that when you start undrestanding what's going on around you, you realise that is better being on your own world than living in the real one? I read books to live in those worlds and not being present in the real one. Most people are swooning, "obsessing" over things because they don't want to deal with their reality. It's what keeps them sane from the mess that ravels around them because that is the only thing that gives them hope that anything bad can be good again, no matter what. At least that's how I see it...
Let me give you an example. Do you know the korean boyband, Bangtan Sonyeondan "BTS"? Many people swoon over them. They have "literally" taken all over the world, including me and do you know why is that happening? Due to the fact that BTS sends messages of hope, love and living a happy life even if everything is messed up just through their music. That boy band has worked very hard for being where they are today and that shows to people that anyone can accomplish anything only if they want to. People "obsess" over them because of what they represent. When people see their idols creating something unique, it makes them believe in something and not let their sadness or whatever happens in their lives to push them down.
So the "nice" term of obsession is not being attouched to something that can lead to bad conflicts, to everlasting infatuattion but something that gives you the protection from your problems, something that gives you the push to be better, to make great things and isn't it what everyone wants? Being "obsessed" with something is not bad as long as it keeps you in a reality check and not in the insane line. Believe me, I know what I'm talking about. Swooning over things is sometimes the only thing that keeps a person happy...
Now don't go on and saying I'm crazy, I hope you understood on what I'm talking about 😂😂. I hope someone can relate to this. I certainly did.
I want to thank you for some of the emails and DMs of gratitude I got from you guys and made me feel that I don't write these stuff just for myself. I'm touched that other people feel the same way I do or that I make some others to process stuff that they didn't before. Thank you. Really.
This gingerhead is out!
