How do you deal with obsession?

Question

Let's pretend that you are an avid supporter of Barack Obama. You love him and everything he stands for. You ask all of your friends, your co-workers, even some people of high authority or political power in your hometown. So far everyone you know loves Barack as much as you, and can't wait for that glorious day in Novermber when you can FINALLY vote for him. You look around the internet at what bloggers, mods, and other such forum junkies are saying online, and seems that all of THEM are looking forward to voting for Barack too. It seems like everyone in the country is voting for Barack Obama! And then when the results are in.....!

:D

John McCain has won.

O_o

Wtf?

You feverishly try to find out what the h**l happened, but you can't. McCain has won, but you can't find ANY rhyme or reason as to how this could have happened! You are outraged by this outcome like you have never been outraged before. You ask everyone who was supposed to vote for Barack, and they just shrug and say "Oh well. McCain won. Whatever." And off they go on their merry way. No one cares that McCain that won, despite how impossibly stacked the odds were against him.

How do you let this bizarre, inexplicable reality go and save your sanity, instead of letting it fester into a horrible obsession? How do you live your life instead of trying to answer a question that has no answers?

Answer 2

To answer your question, to deal with it, people should pick their battles and fight for them.  At the end win or lose at least they know who they want to vote for and why they pick that person.  Better than people that have no obsession at all.  I like the saying Stand for something rather than nothing.

Answer 3

What the difference will it make if Obama wins or loses to you??

People tend to get obsessed about film stars, characters, gold, jewelery, political leaders, cricket and things like that..

Its just a feeling, a really waste useless and nothing-gud-to-you feeling..

Caring too much about something or thinking about something day and night results in obsession. Never take anything seriously to heart, because they are not that worthy... These things may result in insanity if not checked in time..

Be obsessed about yourself, then you will know how beautiful life is...
