Obess Obsess

Obsession is one of those really frightening foes we encounter, no?

It is a sweet trap to fall in voluntarily. And the best part? You thought you're in heaven.

People get obsessed with many stuff, some bizarre and sadistic, while others might appear harmless. Never mind the object though. The truth is, just by being obsessed, is never good, regardless of the object. Even blogging can be detrimental if I am obsessed by it!

Definition of this word, obsess is:

To completely fill your mind so that you cannot think of anything else, in a way that is not normal.

Or

To be always talking or worrying about a particular thing, especially when this annoys other people.

It is extremely easy to nod our heads in concede to the words above from Oxford Dictionary. How aptly it describes some of us! To have something to fill your head until you can even think is serious business. Humans are honoured and distinguished because we can think. In other words, you're no better than an animal when you're in a state of obsession. Ironically, you can be very happy when you are thinking and acting like animals.

The second definition might sounded a little odd, but think carefully and it is not hard to identify a few of them, particularly when it involves puppy love. An obsessed lover is an annoying worrier,ie keeps on worrying about she and he; full stop. Trivial details of events can bedevil these poor souls for an extent of time, depending on the individual. They cannot see the light, for their eyes have gone blind.

An obsessed individual hates words of interference from people. They would not take a word regarding their current occupation. This is illustrated through a simple example, say, me, who is quite online-obsessed. I vehemently protest and deny until I foam at the mouth whenever my Dad points out that I have been spending too much time in front of the screen. After a minor disagreement, I would retreat and think about my conduct, and only in my most clear-headed moments will I admit that Dad is right.

And this is just being obsessed with online-ing. Try and make fun at someone who is obsessed with certain idol-singers and actors; or better, ridicule that particular singer/actor. You will definitely have earned yourself an enemy.

In short, being obsessed is blissful torture. You are happily torturing yourself and you actually enjoy it. Any advice from people you reject with vehemence, believing them to want to punctuate your bubble of happiness.

Divine help is needed.
