The fearful generation?!

Do we realize we are the most timid generation of Homo Sapiens?
Remember the confessions page?
Well, thank god most of those pages are not functioning now..
But we are still afraid to express our true feelings to someone and hence we need sayat.me
We are too afraid to confront someone and tell them directly that we feel hurt by their actions and instead we will put a philosophical quote regarding karma and wrongly credit Buddha for the quote as our WhatsApp story and wait for him/her to have seen it..

We are too afraid of our own identities..
Or the identities that we have created in society, on social media and in real life which are clearly 3 different representations of our own self!!
We constantly live in fear of being misunderstood but the fact is we have never taken the time out to understand ourselves.
We have been too diplomatic when we are in public and too abusive when we wear the mask of anonymity.
The struggle is to find the right balance.
To be true to ourselves instead of wearing a different mask for each occasion.
We are afraid of losses.
We can't handle the victories..
We are afraid of acceptance.
Oh and just don't talk about denial and rejection.
Sorry we can't handle that.

We are afraid to say the first hello.
We are afraid to put our hand out for the fear opposite one might not extend his..
We are afraid to say sorry..
We are afraid to accept an apology..
Yes, we are the most timid generation of Homo Sapiens and the irony is we pretend to be the strongest and most evolved..
