How desolate would you say you are?
How desolate would you say you are?
I am a 30-year-old disabled guy living in New Delhi. I haven't stepped out of my room in the last 12 years. Trust me, loneliness and disability both are unable to stop my survival instinct. My heart still longs for companionship and love. Even though I have never met anyone outside of my family, I know that there are people out there who care for me and would do anything to make me feel loved.
The internet has been my only source of companionship for the past decade. It has given me a platform to express myself and connect with other people who are going through similar experiences. In a way, the internet has been my saviors. It has given me a voice and a reason to keep going.
Even though I cannot physically step outside, I have found ways to step outside mentally and emotionally. Through my interactions with others online, I have been able to explore different parts of the world and learn about different cultures. I may be restricted physically, but mentally and emotionally, I am free to roam wherever I please.
Loneliness and disability may have stopped me from living a "normal" life, but they have not stopped me from living at all. I am still here, fighting and surviving against all odds. And that is something that nobody can take away from me.
