Mute creatures are a better company than the walking-taking humans!

Yawwwwwwn….yawnnn…..yawn! As the day draws to a close, I feel the energy drifting out of me like a soul from a dead body. I must admit that today was a little too boring than usual. The heat and boredom is a legal combination to put one off to sleep. At this point I feel like a dead duck, just wanting to slip into the most comfortable shell of my life, my sweet bed. Ah! Sweet because I have decorated the walls surrounding it with a few items that most of the grown ups term either crap or kiddish. Yes, you guessed it right, soft toys.

These toys make me feel young beyond my years and instill a childlike vigour in me to live my life, yes my life, on my own terms. I must tell you that there have been attempts to sabotage my feelings and my personal space by the wise, many a times. But the obstinate that I am, I let such preachings bother me the least! Whenever I feel bored or lonely I talk to these mute creatures who so patiently lend me an ear without ever interrupting me once. So, for a company, these cute, sweet and oh so soft toys are perfect to turn to.

And the best part is that you can talk to them endlessly, sulk at them, vent out your anger by kicking and hurting them without once expecting them to hit back at you in self defense. Is it not a great idea to unleash your violent streak without actually being termed violent by your folks? Now don’t ask me how to escape the watchful eyes of your loved ones. Ok fine. It is as simple as finding the right opportunity (like when your people are engrossed in TV or busy on a phone chat or cooking dinner or even when they have all gone to their respective rooms to rest), locking yourself up in the room and then getting started with the action. Trust me, I have experimented with this violent yet non-violent formula to relieve myself from the burden of the sufferings caused intentionally or unintentionally to me by my loved ones and ok at times by people who don’t matter much. Phew! That’s only because I am one of the many stupid emotional fools on this planet.

At times I do emit my anger on my darling Hubby, who like the wittiest person on this earth only and only listens and lets me talk at length. But at times when I don’t have him around I grab any of my favourite toys and get started….

These toys are so much better than people, at least during these mood swings when no one is interested in wasting their time listening to your heart’s ache. It is then that I feel obliged for having them around because you can order these toys to be with you for as long as you want them, boast about yourself without the fear of being mocked at, share your top secrets without dreading that they might be leaked to unwanted sources, and all the silly things that you want to indulge in without being termed a nerd or a maniac.

Huh… these soft toys are multipurpose and I am so proud of my collection. At least that gives me the opportunity to pick a different one every time I am upset and ready to unleash. Thankfully the rest are spared from the fury while one of them is being tortured!!!
