I replied: Sorry dear, I have retired from all work and all relationships. Dropped out of society, especially personal relationships. I do still post on my blog and LinkedIn, that is about all the activity I am allowing myself for the time being so that I can gradually withdraw from them, too, come my birthday on July 16, 2026, by which time I hope to be able to stay utterly quiet whole day.
I am not taking anyone’s calls nor meeting anyone. I am done with all my relationships as there is no interest left in engaging with anyone.
I have made many mistakes in my life, and hence I have not been able to lead a normal life nor have I been able to have healthy meaningful relationships with anyone nor can I hope for any such relationships in future, so I am letting the curtain drop on my act for this life and I am hoping there will be no next life if I can figure out the truth before I kick the bucket.
Of course, to think one has made mistakes is itself the biggest mistake because that implies one is taking on the “doership”. I get that 100% intellectually. It remains to be understood by me TOTALLY IN MY VERY BONES WHY I AM NOT THE DOER AND GOD IS THE SOLE DOER. That I can do only being summa iru.
