We awake in the mourning to urn a living but wake, mourning and urn are for the dead, but we get through the weak daze for a weakened and great each other with hello it may actually be o hell especially if you work the graveyard shift...
I enjoy your writing and your questions, you may enjoy this perspective. There’s a few short reads on my SS.
As someone who has spent recent years outside India, I did find it striking how busy it is here. In fact I was quite busy as well when I studied here without any mid-life responsibilites tbf. I was aware but never discussed between friends or family (so not aware?). I personally put it down to the Bandwagon effect. I do think a strong will and motivation to an action can change it. Recently when I did ask a friend, I was told this is how it is in corporate life, that the stress is intense and also cannot escape by hopping jobs. His belief/opinion was so strong on this that he was not willing to appreciative the alternatives. It's like getting through a traffic finding barely wider paths even when there is no particular urgency to reach ur destination.
