Crying Before the Hurt
June 15, 2006Sometimes, things around you make you feel like you’ve found something special. You feel like something wonderful is about to happen in your life. And then in just three words, everything shifts from sunshine to rain. From warmth to chill. From light to dark. From glee to gloom.
Everything could change in just a snap, they all say. And they all are right. One minute, you’re humming love songs, and in the next, noise bangs in your head so loudly, you feel like world is crumbling to pieces.
When I was little, I used to anticipate sadness. I used to supress too much happiness in delighting over things when I knew anguish would come next. And I did pretty well. I learned how to control the level of glee that shoots up to my nerves. I don’t know how I did it, but I did. Kinda funny when you think of it, huh?
