I can see the wrinkles. No one else can. It’s not my face that has wrinkled, my mind has.
I will just give one instance. My eyes can sense less color these days. It’s rare that they find anything pleasing. Earlier I had typical feminine eyes, I was crazy about dresses. I was obsessed about them. And now, I walk through the malls like a zombie. I can’t make myself to like anything, anywhere.
Recently I went out shoe-shopping with papa. I went to some 20 odd shops. I liked none. From one shop to another, time refused to pass by. In and out of those air-conditioned rooms, into those sweaty, dusty lanes, I dragged my body along. Every half-hour passed by, more sluggishly than the previous one.
I was feeling more frustrated than usual. I wanted something. Anything that could please my eyes, my tongue. Gupchup wala!!! It was like a rescue ship for the marooned me. It was then that I felt relieved, the sour and hot as if enlivened my taste buds and all my senses along with it. I got into the last shop of the evening-got the first pair of shoes that could engage my eyes for more than 20 seconds. And got done with it. Ha!

Looks like ur on a unwanted extended holiday , that explains the loss of senses. :). More striking and commendable is the fact that uve been writing pretty regularly which I am pretty bad at, i guess it requires some sort of discipline :). Keep posting

Don't know what u r going through.... but what u have mentioned happens with many of us... leave it on time..everything will fall in place...u r still pretty young to worry about small things.... enjoy ur life...
