Walking on empty roads is only satisfying when the soul is satisfied, he had no idea what satisfaction meant, the tangled feelings in his heart were the cause of his tiredness and the more he tried to untangle them,the more they got jumbled up. It wasn't that he was an introvert, he used to greet every person he used to meet on the street, a person who used to speak his heart out until one day when he tried to talk about his vibes and the things that made him feel insecure but he was told to keep those feelings to himself because men are brave, brave enough to not confront their feelings in front of people, keeping it to himself, the feelings started losing their meaning, their purpose and they just became feelings without reason, the unsolved miseries, the poison that ruins the concept of love residing in the heart, the numbness that becomes one's partner in crime, the emotions that start to deny their presence and finally the reason to live fades.
Walking on empty streets is only satisfying when the soul is satisfied or else walking becomes essential only to avoid suicidal thoughts.
But everyone's got one angel in their life who makes them realize that they're poisoning their minds by overthinking and keeping stuff to themselves. Luckily he got saved by that one angel in his life too and thus understood what acknowledgements do, it was his story of becoming a therapist, the ones who have suffered know how it feels to suffer in silence, how it feels to not have someone who could validate them at every step of their lives.
It is important to be aware of what others are going through, if not, just assume life is a trial for each and every individual in this world and be kind always.
