What exactly is a hubbub..my hubbub you ask?? Well, think of it as a pandemonium, a state of mayhem. Only that this pandemonium was created by you, born of you, started and continued by you. So this here...is my pandemonium, started, created and designed by me. A hubbub is basically a chaotic din caused by a crowd of people, but in this case, since it is MY space, it’s just me :-), it can also be a busy, noisy situation. I think everyone on this earth should look at themselves as a "situation" of sorts. We are big deals, don't you think?? Top of the food chain in Biology so to speak. So in my hubbub..this hubbub, I am my own very busy, very noisy "situation". YOU should be one too. By nature I am a loud person, kind of proud of it because you know what, that's me and am glad to be me. Some days, that is. I laugh loudly, smile loudly and on occasion scream loudly. I wouldn't say I disrupt the peace, but as a self-proclaimed "situation"...I should be able to leave an impression some place, somewhere. Do not be easily forgotten. People do forget easily, me inclusive but try to be your own situation, no-one else's..just yours.
People always have expectations of you and you always have some of them. Incredibly over-the-top ones in some cases and then ridiculously low ones, and since I just suggested that I want to be a situation, people will expect a situation or something from me at the very least. Expectations are very dangerous things though, but everyone has them of you. Your folks, your friends, authority and even people without authority. Regardless of what I think about being a situation and affecting the world we live in, I somehow have learned how to stop expecting so much from people. Maybe for fear of disappointment, may be because I want to be surprised or shell-shocked at a later date perhaps. Whatever the reason, I believe that even though we all want something from someone, we shouldn’t expect too much, right?? Neither you nor them wrote Great Expectations?? That novel by Charles Dickens? So do not expect from people what you cannot and probably will not give back to them, that’s what I believe in, but then again, do not let them forget you existed either.
My hubbub, my pandemonium, my hullabaloo about maybe nothing but perhaps something today, is about the way I believe we should all be situations..to the people around you, the loved ones around you, even the un-loved around you. Create some noise, some din wherever you go. And am not saying pitch up in a public library and go out of your way to cause mayhem or racket. Just do something, cause someone’s day or mood to change, turn a frown upside down or bring change to someone’s tomorrow, TODAY!! Be a situation to someone’s life..and watch someone become a situation in yours.
