Missing or remembering?

Sometimes we all say that we miss something. Things that we miss could be our family, our friends, our surroundings or anything that we like.

What is that we miss? Is missing something just a feeling? Or missing something is one not being in it? Or we want to live in past memories or we are thinking of future and we want to be in it. Or we are scared of not being in it and missing the thought that we are not in it.

Sometimes I feel that, instead of missing something we rather say that we remember something. That way it will feel different and I would say will be lot less painful.

I remember lot of things, my parents, my friends, my school, my college and my family. That last sentence sounds lot better than saying I miss this & I miss that.

Our life revolves around feelings. It is feeling that holds us together. If there were no feelings then we would have had such a simple life. Then we would not feel sad if someone says that that they miss you, instead it will give positive connotation if they say they will remember you.

The differences between people that I feel are emotional and not so emotional is that how one deals with one's feelings. The effective management of your feelings is very important. One cannot judge how we should feel; there is no right or wrong way to go about it. Feelings are just that, they can exist in any shape or form.

I am trying to simplify my life by not thinking what others are saying about me. That way my life will be lot more easier to live. Also that now I have learnt how to say "No" so that I will get to live my life the way I really want to live.
