How delightfully, insensitive"...!!

"Those who are critical don't like being criticized, and those who are insensitive have a deficiency in their senses."Suzy Kassem.

There are times when people around us feel that they are wiser or better because they have come above all things in life and because they have ceased to care. But it's not true, if you are being insensitive to others to prove your point that nothing affects you, then you are lying to yourself and not only to yourself but also to the people who care about you.

If you can't make me feel special, then don't make me feel insignificant either. We all must have come across this thought many a times in our lives. And it's true, if you really care for someone, tell them whatever is hurting you, instead of keeping it inside and showing that I am above all of this.

It's the irony of human nature that the most sensitive people are generally insensitive to the feelings of others.

"Your insensitivity never seizes to amaze me darling..."

"पहले तू अजनबी हुआ 
फिर तेरी मुहब्बत अजनबी हो गयी 
कई बार देखा है मैंने तेरी बेरुखी को 
फिर बेरुखी से भी बेरुखी हो गयी, 
तू मुझसे अजनबी हुआ 
और मैं 
ज़िन्दगी से अजनबी हो गयी,
माने अब तू, या न माने 
दर्द तो बखूबी दिया है तूने 
और मैं,'
इस दर्द से भी खुश हो गयी,
कुछ गुंजाइशें बची हैं, शायद अभी 
ज़िन्दगी में मेरी 
तू शामिल है अपनी बेरुखी के साथ 
आदतों में मेरी,
कभी तो पेश आएगा तू मुहब्बत से 
बस, यही है अब एक उम्मीद मेरी..."

Translation:

"First, you became a stranger
then your love unknown
have faced you this way, many a times
then I became stranger to your strangeness,
You became insensitive to me
And I became unknown to life,
Whether you agree, or
you don't
You gave me lot of pain, And look
look at me
I am happy with this pain too
It seems, few chances I may still have
in my life
That's why, you are still a part of me
with all your strangeness and
insensitivity
May be one day, you will realize it
And, that's one hope
I still have..."
