How many times have you missed listening to an interesting story or the heartfelt words of loved ones because of..uhmm..your phone? Next time, maybe complete the conversation?

Since time immemorial, lovers have faced opposition from their families and communities, preventing them from meeting and being together. Sometimes they get lucky and find ways to meet; other times, they part or death meets them first💔🥺

The advantage of the modern world - you can stay connected when the physical distance divides. At times this distance distances you and sometimes it brings closer your souls and minds. The two strangers who met in an unknown land took advantage of the modern world and united in distance. Will this physical distance ever disappear, will the two strangers meet again, will their rhythmic minds continue to sync and sing?

The art of finding quiet in the noise! It’s simple - close your eyes, let your mind take you to a soothing place, and slowly your mind and body both cut off from the chaos in your physical surroundings and probably mental too 😇🙌

Books and love: is there a connection? Are they somewhat similar? I felt so and I guess both need patience and interest 😅
What do you think?

What is peace to you?
You don’t necessarily need to search for it; it lies within you. There’s no one specific moment that brings you peace, it’s a feeling you can experience even when the world around you is in complete chaos.
Once you feel it, or once you’ll feel it; you’ll know what I mean and why it’s as hard to express in words as it is to achieve 🥰😇🙏

How often it happens that you choose silence over expressing your thoughts, your views in words. Sometimes it’s frustration, sometimes it’s boredom, sometimes it’s tiredness, sometimes other things are more important, so you choose silence.

The buildings get old, the buildings fall. Newer buildings if not built right, if the foundation is weak, they fall.
And the metal support is not strong!
And so some relationships, even when people put effort, tend to break apart - either the ideologies the relationship is built upon are weak, or the mettle of the people is not strong!
Thus, the houses fall, the relationships end!

A couple of days ago..I was talking to a friend when she was telling me about REAL problems and difficulties in her life. Then she continued to ask me about my life..and it hit me..I don’t have any problems..and the only problems I have are in my mind..I mean..if she scores 100 out of 100 for going through troubles in life..I scored 0.5/100.
It was such a funny realisation that my non problematic life is a problem for me that my brain starts cooking some random stories to feel sad!
Are you an over thinker?

Imagine a 500-meter long patch of road, with a vast stretch of greens, bright and dewy, on one side. Forget the other side; it was just a wall bordering the heavenly road. So, right where this road starts, there is a distinctive odour coming from the sewage water that is frothing, creating white bubbles. You hold your breath for a moment, and then continue walking. Just as you cross this smelly 10-meter stretch, you feel warm. The morning air has been cool, but now you can feel the warmth of the shining sun.
You keep walking, and now you hear the sweet chirping of the birds. You see them, too, flying from branch to branch, some flying away from you because you are an intruder, a stranger in their quiet, heavenly bliss. You continue to keenly observe their flying and fluttering wings as you walk. You smile thinking, “Oh, don’t be scared, I am only enjoying this heavenly air, just like you my dear.”
Worldly thoughts now come to your mind — you are glad you didn’t bring your phone, but you know you don’t have a photographic memory, so now you feel regret. If only you had a phone, you could capture pictures for social media, or a picture to use as a reference for painting. And then, your thoughts wander to older generations, thinking about the people who could walk on this heavenly road without thinking about their phones or could paint a scenery by looking at the scenery and not their phones.
And now, you’ve reached the other end of this heavenly road. There is a hint of moisture in the air, a smell that reminds you of Wayanad’s village road during monsoons. You give this smell a name: the trees’ sweat. The road has ended now, so you turn back. This time, you think less, you walk with head down to avoid eye contact with the godly sun. And without you even realizing, you are in shade, the smell of the sewage is back, and you are also back — out from your thoughts, outside the heavenly road.

The Black and the White 🖤🤍

Oh, she’s black, but she’s smart.
Pink won’t suit her
Her skin is dark
Beautiful?? Ummm, they think hard.
Good, but will she get the groom?
As smart as her
Or white, but dumb as dirt?
Milk, cream, turmeric they advice
Make her less ugly
Increase her market price
With time, she shushed the world.
Covered her ears with soundproof walls
She began to feel love for herself.
The dark outside
Could not deter her
She built her confidence step by step.
Gathered scattered pieces bit by bit,
Became indifferent to colors
Of her and her peers
Maybe black was not all she had.

Initially and even now, sometimes, I get confused about whether I should write about the topics that speak to my heart the most or the topics that are trending and will bring more traction, more clicks. So, I try to find a balance between what my heart wants and what my bank balance wants. Stephen King once said, "I did it for the pure joy of the thing. And if you can do it for joy, you can do it forever." I feel that is so true for the work that I have chosen to do. What do you do, and what is your outlook towards it?

Our culture is such that we often find ourselves defending our choices, even when we are the only ones affected by them. While living in a society necessitates adherence to certain norms, it is not always feasible to silence every opposing opinion on our choice of actions. In such situations, we can either fight or remain quiet and move forward. I chose fight, and in the process, learned to be quiet.
How do you typically handle situations where you are questioned about specific actions you’ve taken?

It happens all the time: I sit down to write, and if I don't start writing the first line, I end up daydreaming. However, if I get that first line written, then the story comes together!

One of the most dreaded moments of my freelance career was here.
So the laptop stopped working completely, and I had to tell my clients, “I won’t be able to finish the tasks within the deadline, and if they prefer, they can go ahead and cancel the order.”
It is hard to tell someone “No” once you have promised to complete a job. It is, however, better to inform the client of the issue before it is too late. It is sometimes okay to accept your defeat and realize that not everything is within your power to fix.

Just like the effect of alcohol 🫣🤫 .. no? You drink you dance and then you sit,,.. and then you realise..oops “I am drunk” 🤭
Anyway, the “pausing” everyone talks about - and for right reasons too - you get time put things into perspective when you pause, you are able to let go off things when you pause, you get to take a mental break when you pause.
Are you a believer/follower of this ideology? Even if you are not, comment below - I know many people who are not and they are doing great too!
