Emptiness is not just absence of everything or presence of nothing. Sometimes Emptiness also comes in presence of everything or absence of nothing..
Sometimes the feeling of emptiness is because we desire for everything and we assume we have them. And when we don’t get what we desire, we feel empty.
Emptiness is when you think you know everything. And when you realize there is always something which you don’t know, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you think you own everything you have. And when you can’t buy happiness with that thing, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you think everyone you know is yours. And when you see their different faces and varying character, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you believe in fixed way of viewing at things. And when some things don’t match up with your view, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you think everything around is constant. And when you see yourself in different situations, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you attach yourself with other things. And when you realize that you have to carry them with you, every moment, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you dream something without a goal. And when that dream doesn’t come true after a period, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you don’t adjust your plan according to situation. And when that plan doesn’t work the way you have planned, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you think you are superior to everyone. And when you realize you are not and there are many great people out there, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you think time is always in your hands. And when time changes and gets out of your hand, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you are full busy in daily schedule. And when something important pops out in between that, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you think materialism is life. And when you feel spiritually low and mentally ill, you feel that you are empty.
Emptiness is when you look only for success. And when you realize being simple is a happier option, you feel that you are empty.
Emptiness is when you want to be famous and a star. And when you come to know being anonymous is more peaceful, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you want to be rich. And when you realize that richer people have more enemies than friends, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you don’t believe in God. And when you are in trouble, you don’t know whom to offer a prayer, then you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you don’t take decisions as per the requirement. And when it turns out to be a failure, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you take a path followed by masses. And when you don’t find your destiny, you feel empty.
Emptiness is when you have a weight in your brain in the form of problems. And when you don’t write down how you feel, you feel more heavy. You feel empty.
Emptiness is when you think you will live forever. And when day by day you grow older, you feel empty.
So what did you learn? Is emptiness just absence of something or sometimes it comes even just because of presence of something! So never desire for anything just because it will benefit you in future. Do something which removes your habit of desiring. Be happy and peaceful with what you have and don’t take them for granted. Never attach yourself deeply with anything or anyone, do your duty and move. Don’t follow the path others decide for you, choose the path on which you feel you will find your destiny, but remember, your path should not hurt others. Don’t feel happy or sad because of situations and its result. Because happiness don’t come from senses or desires, it comes from spiritual development and self-satisfaction.

To be frank, I was feeling empty from a few days now and it was taking me away from my happiness. There was no real reason to feel empty but still I was feeling so. For just avoiding that emptiness, I filled this blog post. I think I feel better after writing this and I hope the same after you read it.
I don’t know for some reason, the comments which I make on other blogs are not showing up. They are going to the spam folder. Hope it gets resolved soon. Thanks for the support.
Thanks for reading. Stay blessed. Keep Smiling. 🙂

Goodmorning. Nice take on emptiness. Another moment when we may experience emptiness is I think when we have fear in us. And when we decide to accept and face the fear, it leaves us, and the emptiness vanishes. Have a great day ahead.

Definitely, the post enlightened me, Jackie. I, too, feel an emptiness at times. I think, each of us does. Sometimes, there is a concrete reason, and sometimes it just happens. You have nicely elaborated that void, that space, that’s beyond our understanding often. This is a profound post… 🙂

Thank you so much Mani. . Very true, I too believe that every one feels empty sometimes for a reason sometimes without any reason. But instead of allowing it consume us we should try to fill that space with some inspiration. Thank you so much for reading the post Mani.
And wow, really? I contacted support team and they said they will fix it soon. I never thought this soon. Thanks for the good news.

Phewww Hands-down….no comments for such an intriguing piece here.
‘And in emptiness there is a solution’, noting more real it can get than this JJ.
Loved the following :
‘Emptiness is when you want to be famous and a star. And when you come to know being anonymous is more peaceful, you feel empty.’
‘Emptiness is when you think materialism is life. And when you feel spiritually low and mentally ill, you feel that you are empty.’
‘Emptiness is when you take a path followed by masses. And when you don’t find your destiny, you feel empty.’….damn truer than death 🙂
