The object of my obsession


I find obsession to be so amusing....consciously we try not to get obsessed...but sub-consciously we cannot help but get obsessed...and for a kind of person like me....I always have 2 options for obsession.....I'll either get obsessed and do everything to get my object of obsession or else I'll get obsessed but let go of the object.....thats how I deal with my obsession....
When the object of obsession is mere a thing.....it is easy to control the mind....like these days I have grown an obsession for beautiful sarees....whenever I see one that I like too much....without giving a thought to my poor bank balance I pounce on it and buy it....on the other hand....I generally keep my hair short.....but had grown it for the last one year.....my frnds loved my new look.....and I too was obsessed with it.....so just the other day I went to the salon....and got that chucked....back to my short hair cut.....see how easy it is.....no big deal!
Obsession becomes a big deal when it becomes a part of any relationship.....that is when the conscious and sub-conscious mind starts playing the game that I hate.....and makes the mind real weak.....and indecisive.....it becomes difficult to control my mind.....coz I believe that it is the mind and not the heart that deals with obsession..... a frnd of mine says "Jassi you should start gymming.....not because losing weight should be your priority but to have a disciplined mind".....does that even help you to stop getting obsessed???.....if yes, I'll take your words real seriously okay.....these days I am obsessed.....and it is a li'l painful for a person like me since I really give a s*** to things that bother me.....just the other day a frnd told me "it is only when you start getting a hold of the thing you want...you get to know whether it is is even worth the wait....whatever that may be".....so true.....but even when I know that my object of obsession is not worth the pain.....still I get obsessed.....see how the mind plays the game.....consciously I really want to let go....but sub-consciously.....I try to hold on to it.....and that is where the problem begins.....it is like a fist full of sand....the tighter u hold on to it....the quicker it slips.....leaving u void.....so I have consciously decided to let go....befores it makes me completely empty......but sub-consciously....."NO"..... this time....I'll just LET GO
However I have made real good frnds in life....very few in number though.....and I just love these guys.....they help me deal with myself to a gr8 extent....I like it that way.....I find fewer ppl means fewer relationships....and an easy life.....but it is life at the end of the day.....which can be anything but easy.....even with such few number of relationships I get obsessed!!! :(
And see.....it is a close buddy again....who got me hooked to blogging.....and now I am obsessed :)
