Pardon me; I have skipped two weeks to update
my blog. It would be very unreasonable to say that I was too busy.
Actually, I was stressed out for the past two weeks. The former week I slacked
off for the entire week because my childhood friends were here. I was stressed because
I wasn’t doing much productive works and the later week I stressed out because
I kept thinking about how I shouldn’t have wasted my entire week. LOL.
For those of you, who read my posts
which didn’t give you any new information but rather you had to bear with my
personal nonsense stuffs for this long, I would like to thank you once again.
The mere fact that somebody out there is reading and my voice is being heard
especially on my rough days helps me to keep going.
Anyway I am here with news. I have decided to
incorporate any information that might be useful to you guys reading and so my
posts will be personal yet quite informative.For today I am going to give out some information on violence against children
in Bhutan as I am currently working on this project for which I have
collaborated with UNICEF.
No, it isn’t a very complicated subject. Violence
against children in Bhutan is discussed in three aspects, the emotional, sexual
and physical violence. As I was reading the comprehensive research, I could
read between the lines and could totally relate to what the children meant when
they stated about little things. As I have been through that road personally, I
think little things matter when you are growing up. So for this reason, I have
decided to have a cinematic approach to this episode and hence I have looked
for characters to portray the forms of violence stated above.
On the other end, I am not a huge fan of
heavy metal and the suicide of Chester didn’t really affect me as it did to my
friends. What bothered me was his interview when he so openly discuss about his
internal battles and the fact that he tried so hard to describe the neighborhood
in his head.
I felt like we could connect that way.
I mean it’s usually very hard to tell people
how we feel about ourselves when we are not feeling so well and that ‘neighborhood’
is surely a dangerous place. The two
Chesters, one pushing down, confused and the fact that you have money and everything
people consider as means of happiness don’t help and that’s exactly what
Chester was shown saying.
And it’s the same with me.
Not that I am anywhere
near him but still. Life is as I want it to be. I have a job I always dreamt
about. I have been showered with my dreams to travel the world. I have people I
love and basically my life is on track but sometimes I feel so bored. I don’t
see any reason why I should strive for those things because at the end we all
are going to leave this world.
Anyway like always, just a random thought and
no I don’t need help. Haha. I am very busy these days to think about committing
suicide and I don’t want to miss my Denmark trip.
But I still have a question. If speaking out doesn’t help fight depression, what will?
