Why I don't write.

I haven't written in a really long time - not on my blog, not in my journal, nowhere. Looking for reasons, I write this, hoping to find some answers unraveling my thoughts into words. Logically, there are many but when I ponder over them, there is only one that really matters -- that I have stopped believing in my writing... slowly and steadily. I am not particularly sure how that happened but it is important for me to acknowledge that it has. ..And try to think more. I have always believed that writing is my calling, that this is what I will end up doing regardless of where I am now. Because I felt that way, imagining all the time in the world to do it at some point, I never invested in it. I have never spent time learning about the minutiae - writing on whims, basking in the feeling of happiness about the pieces being relate-able. But what happens when things don't happen in my life that are someone else's stories too, what do I write about then? May be that's my s...

Meaning Of Life (In A Way)

This topic is a discussion every young adult definitely has with her set of friends. We always discuss at least once what it means to be on this planet, what it all is supposed to be. Most of the times, a conclusion is never reached, first because we don't know for sure, and second, may be because there really isn't (meaning of this life in a broader context). But that doesn't stop our mind from wandering off, discussing and imagining the expanse of possibilities that could be. The following is one of those less thought-of scenarios about all this- Have you thought that may be every step we take, every small thing we do, it all amounts to something? May be it changes something in the world, changes how things will turn out, what the future will be, what will happen to us and what, to everyone and everything else. I think this might be true, but to think of it, it is strange, because it isn't that a single entity can do something as to impact everything else, right?...

Choose.

What would you choose? Dreams, or reality? Where would you choose (to be)? A comforting monotony or a rash adventure? How would you do it? The right way, or 'do it any way'? When would you do it? When the time is right or when you feel like? Who would you choose? One who was there for you or the one just in dreams? If only life was that easy, everyone would 'choose'. Guess it isn't. What do you do? Choose to choose? Or not, may be? Up to you.

What's your favorite?!

This post is written in a little bit of humor and random musings about life and people (look at me stating this as if it's new for me. Huh.) Please take it in the lighter tone of matters (ie. if you didn't already get that it was implied from the previous sentence.)   I write this post hearing more and more about how people have this one favorite thing and they just can't stop talking about it. Listening them go on and on, I get a train of thoughts that no one I have ever met gets. (And when I mention it to people, they shrug and give a blank expression as if I said something in some alien-ish language). I mean, seriously?! At least be kind enough to give a little acknowledgement to a new thought you closed minded jerks. Okay so my point is that how can people have favorites when there is so much to try in the world. And see, I know I can be awfully in lack of perspective here but what I will say is that I have one as well by saying what I am saying so bear with m...

To- 'Love Of The Life'

I have put that in quotes in the title because that's how people refer to 'the' person. It is a little overrated and cheesy I feel (the tag I mean), which is why I didn't add 'my' in there, felt that would be too much for my liking. Whatever, the term has been there since forever so I should probably shut up about my opinion of that. The real blog post starts now (which by the title you might have judged that it is kind of like a letter if you may). May be I know you, may be I don't; may be I have met you, may be I haven't but in this moment, I just want to speak out to you. One might think this is crazy but most would understand the gesture behind this. Most people my age get thoughts on the line of  'I don't even know who am I going to spend my life with and how weird is that.' Aren't you supposed to be so sure that you wouldn't do it any other way?! And in that way, aren't you supposed to know them from long?! I don...

If I Were To Die Today..

(I feel this post is incomplete, that I am forgetting something but can't put my finger on what it is so I will edit it later if I realize that there is something worth mentioning). Here goes- If I'd be to die today, I would do it with no regrets. If a storm was to come today, destroying everything, I would face it with the awe of getting to see it before leaving this beautiful place called the Earth. I will be happy because of a lot of reasons. I will be happy because I got to see the trees wave in the wind (I have no clue why that particular sight makes me so happy!); I would be happy 'cos I got to see the birds chirp which I wonder if happens anywhere else in the huge wide universe we call our home. It is smaller than a dot on a place as big as a house and we get to see the amazing world that it is. I would have no regrets because I got to experience what it is like to be a part of the only living 'thing' (hopefully, to make this statement true :p) in this ...

Who would you rather be?

I was just watching 'Tumhi Ho Bandhu' and got into a chain of thoughts that I thought might be food for thought for some of you, especially girls. I myself haven't really reached to a conclusion because of my practicality wanting to be selfish but my heart not allowing me to... What is this about you ask? A simple question. Would you rather be Diana Penty of Cocktail or Deepika Padukone. On one side there is Veronica played by Deepika who is a party girl, has lots of money to waste and yet she is a person who takes in a random girl in her house, considers the girl her best friend, is in a relation where the guy starts liking another girl so easily; is a girl who is willing to change for the person for good, is ready to learn whatever it takes, opts to go take care of his mother, accepts when her 'best friend' and 'boyfriend' 'love' each other (Okay I don't want to be judgmental but still I am not going to remove the quotes) and makes them...
