Do not love like my generation does.
we are a generation of broken people, we take things either too seriously or too casually. We open our hearts, keep ourselves like an open journal in front of someone a journal in which you have been jotting down your secrets for weeks and months and years.Then we love with everything we have, we go all in. Travel for 10 kilometres just to sit on Marine drive and listen to them talking, or we then shut people out, we ghost them and ourselves, we cook our meals and binge watch all day .
I mean I agree we are going through crisis and stuff to be honest are we the only generation who has been going through crisis all at once-unemployment, reception, lock down, civil war, a freakin pandemic-yet our only plan to fight against all these issues which are taking all over the world is just by looking at memes, putting them our insta stories and we show anger, love, hugs and kisses through emoticons.personal meets have turned into video calls and for some not even that.
our generation redefined love stories. We all have heard love stories from the generation our parents belong to. The concept where they would exchange letters with the help of friends, call on landline in the constant fear that their parents my pick it up and they would have to hang up. now we video call and hangout in cafes and snap when we are bored video call when we miss our loved ones.
once in a while we fall in or out of love without our parents ever finding about it. But in my generation it is not true love unless you post a picture of them on Instagram.
Haha such a wannabe.
we fucked of the concept of love, we solace in moments that don’t last forever.To be fair we fucked up so many things like Polaroids cause we replaced it with the digital cams, phones and DSLRs .we forget so many things and act as if everything is normal.We fucked up letters and replaced them with emails and again acted as it was so normal.
From one night stand to casual dating to open relationships, we have everything on your fingertips. And all of this is okay with us.The problem is we are the generation who has forgotten to love selflessly to stand up for love, to have the backs of our love, to believe in something or someone, to believe in the concept of forever.
We don’t practice what we preach, we read novels like”the fault in our stars”and”walking disaster”and we consume movies like “me before you” and “SPF 18″and we all want a Happy ending no pain no struggle, but we don’t put efforts. We don’t cross mountains not even puddles.
We just want all things to happen quickly. Did we forget to love? We run even before we can even walk. We aren’t shy, we are forward, we approach people we like. When we are done when we get bored we move on to the next person.
We’re leaving behind too many broken hearts. And broken hearts raise broken families perhaps we are the last generation who will love. So don’t love like my generation does.maybe anyone after us they won’t be in love anymore they will all be in love with the concept of love.
ciao for now.
