When I heard Hello for the first time, a lot of thoughts ran through my mind and I knew I had to write about them to calm my nerves.
But writing was next to impossible at least for few days after listening to the song. The emotions I felt were so overwhelming that I couldn't think straight. Adele's music tend to do that to people and I know everyone would agree.
It's been days after the release of the song but the chills it still gives me, every time I listen to this song is amazing. I enjoy it in a weird way and I am sure I am not the only one. As I went through the comment below her video this evening I saw almost everyone could relate to it.
I, myself relate to the song in so many ways. It reminds me how much we crave second chances in life. It explains how afraid and insecure we are, because we are always so afraid to try out the second chance in life even when we get it. It reminds me, how despite of knowing the right thing to do, we spend our time in the same old fashion of overthinking. The time which could have been otherwise utilized in by picking up the receiver already.
I have often been one of those people, who is just plain afraid to pick of the phone and call the person at times when it's necessary. Now I listen to the song I realize it was just a phone call after all and ask myself why I was so hesitant. Always looking for excuses and making one up myself. I went to the every possible extent to avoid the call, to confront the other person. I didn't mind being coward at all.
It reminds me of the time when I knew saying sorry was the right thing to do but how many times I have failed to apologize. How I could not structure the sentence correctly. The times when talking about it was so difficult and avoiding became so easy. I feel sorry about the time. The times which has resulted in the sleepless nights in my side.
Lastly, it reminds me of the time when I actually collected every strength I had in me to put it all together and pick up the receiver, give the other person the call they deserved and say sorry. To explain the reasons behind my behaviors to them but how it wasn't enough and how it was already late.
Today, I want to say sorry to all those people whom I owe one. It might not mean much but, sorry from the other side.
