The Road

Past is like a mirror which shows reflection of yourself. It can be either an ugly one or maybe beautiful. But you can't be looking at that forever and dwell upon it. Because it can carry on with you; beautiful or ugly, it will be stuck. You need to cherish the beautiful memories and let go of the bad ones. It doesn't sounds easy as I said it. It ain't easy but then you have an obligation to yourself. The obligation to keep yourself happy and moving.

Yes, the Earth is round and the road you've travelled earlier will come back to you someday. You've moved ahead, maybe crawled but you came back to that point wiser and stronger than before. You can deal with it now. Everyone has problems, I've them too but I learnt that rather than dwelling into that problem and thinking about it, Search for a solution.

Yes saying all that is easy but it's life and it ain't easy.

The Box

I know there is a feeling in you that you are stuck and the worst part is that you can't come out. It feels like you are stuck inside a closed box, kicking and pushing hard so that you can come out. You're trying hard, gasping for air, it becomes harder to breathe as time passes by. It feels impossible to get out of that box. And then hopelessness takes over you.

But in real life there is no box. You have kept yourself locked in that box of insecurity. You are bound to that imaginary box. You are hopeless that nothing good will happen if you get out of that box. So you decide to live there and suffocate. But you dream of getting out and of breathing again and looking at the bright sun. But you still lack the faith to get out.

You know there was a small caterpillar in this huge world who feared the world. He knew he would be crushed or be eaten someday. So it built a box type cocoon around itself scared of the world. He thought he'd be safe in there. But in reality he suffocated inside that cocoon. So one day he decided that he wants to get out and see the world. He evolved into beautiful butterfly. He had wings now and he got out and started to fly fearlessly into the big blue sky.

No matter how much we be inside that box or cocoon, we are just suffering. I know it is hard but it is really not impossible. We may not get the wings but we get freedom. 

Two Face

Heads, I win.
Tails, you lose.

They called her ugly, fat, whore and slut. They stared at boobs and ass. They raped her. They made her feel alone, unsafe and threatened. Her happiness and freedom were lost. She was unwanted and lonely.

And after she was gone. They demanded justice for her. They did a candle march rally. They described how beautiful she was and how much they are going to miss her.

The norms of the two faced society. No matter what happens society is always on winning side.

A Drive in the Dark

Imagine you are driving at a cloudy night and there are no street lights. Everything is pitch black. The path ahead is illuminated by your car's headlights. You can only see till where the headlight reaches. You don't know what will come next, a surprise.

People expect from other people and end up getting hurt.  I know it's in the human nature to have expectations. But I feel if we add that element of surprise to our lives, there will be no room for expectations. Think of your life as that car and gaze till where you can see and leave everything else to be a surprise.

Things coming to you can be good or bad but then you'll have courage to face it. You'll not pre determine and be hurt. You'll focus on resolving the issue in hand. That's how I do it these days.  and lastly one of my favourite quote.

Yesterday is a History 

Tomorrow is a Mystery 

But Today is a gift, which is why we call it Present. :)

The Semicolon

;

Sometimes you just want things to happen, you wish. But down the road most of them remain wishes. Sometimes they come true. And sometimes it becomes reality when you decide to make it come true.

I was introduced to this new trend that has been going around, by my friend. A semicolon tattoo. I wondered what it meant? I knew that tattoos are deeply meaningful. I knew a semicolon represents a sentence the author could have ended, but chose not to. But what could it mean as a tattoo?

I found out. It meant that I have walked through the road of life, I fell, I got hurt and I cried. But then even with those bruises of depression, I chose to get up and march ahead. To sum it up in one line,"My Life Story isn't Over Yet". I smiled to myself and......

On 3rd August 2015... :) 

This is a constant reminder that I've endured it until now and I will not give up ever.

Love, Her (a short film)

This is the best short film I've ever seen. Please watch it and feel the magic that words can create. :)

Some Shit Called Love.

Disclaimer: I'm not writing this for sympathy or to get back any person. It is my way of getting things off the chest,

Do you believe in Love? I do. Do you believe in giving it all to the one you Love? I do. Would you forgive the person you love for making mistakes again and again? I did. "But" does the person you love has a heart to forgive you? I never found forgiveness. "But" then is love always so easy? It sure is not. "But" would you still pursue it even when it is not that easy? I sure did. Do you think the person you love will come to you even when you try really hard? Doors were sealed for me. Will there be any hope for you? I lost mine. Would you give up then? I did.

Sometimes you meet new people with new hopes that someone among them might be "THE ONE". You give it your all, you keep pushing forward in hopes of making it work, "But" sometimes the person you Love just doesn't sees that effort, blames everything on you. That person might disrespect you, insult you. "But" you don't stop, you keep on forgiving that person and  you keep on pressing it more and more. "But" It is not always that person comes to you. In the end you just give up on the person you love. You try to move on with your Love and Life. In the end it feels like your world comes to an end.

Why is it like that, I wonder? Is it because you want to see yourself happy? Is there any wrong in doing that? No, not at all. It is important to be happy and it is more important to LOVE YOURSELF. In the end when everything falls apart, it is YOU who is there by your side. Things might hold you back. Maybe out of the blue you miss that person badly or the person you dearly loved is with someone else. It might hurt a lot and it might also feel hopeless. Even if you have given up on loving that person "But" never give up on loving yourself. Try to stay calm and try to be happy because after every dark stormy night there is a bright new sunny day. 

SOMETIMES YOU JUST CROSS THE MEMORY LANE AND WISHED THOSE MOMENTS NEVER ENDED.
