Bittersweet Feelings!

So, a 9-9 job, shifting 3 houses, 2 cities later and completing the most anticipated milestone of the 7 pheras, I thought I will finally be at peace with myself. I decided,  I won’t write down all the pyaar wala gyan on my blog and took the self-proclaimed break. Well secretly because of the fear ki ab kuch bhi likhungi, it will be considered as I am complaining about my life! Why? Well is it not true? Even if someone share’s a strong voiced article, a beautiful unhappy poetry or  some love songs ,we presume it to be his current life phase. We now judge the person by his timeline. Come to think of it - this is not entirely all wrong, after all there is more communication on someone's timeline these days than in real life. Anyways!  A fter all of this and facing the most unusual, frightening and overwhelming lock-down situation, the only resort I thought was to do something that I like. Talk ( read write )! I know it’s virtual an

Secure the Insecurities

Do you feel that you don’t deserve lasting love and that your partner will inevitably leave you? Do you stay at home, afraid to venture out and meet new people because you don’t feel you have enough to offer? Do you feel overweight, boring, stupid, guilty, or ugly? Standard questions…  Here I ask you.  Do you inevitably feel the need be validated by your partner time and again? Do you feel the sudden sprang of jealousy or anxiousness when your partner mentions an opposite sex and his/fondness towards that person? No matter how much you convince yourself that you truly trust your partner but such feelings really cloud all your sanity, and the next thing you know is that you are frantically obsessing over that person. Now while many might say : "This is completely insane. I don’t feel any such thing." I say, let’s ponder a little more. Insecurities: We’ve all got a few.  Speaking of myself: I DO!    I used to feel embarrassed of this, but have come to r

Play or Pause

Block Block Everywhere!  We millennials are so you used to practice this art of stalling that sometimes it gets beneficial for us, other times; well it’s just a way of us escaping the truth. We avoid many sensitive situations or unwanted explanations by practicing this wonderful art of blocking people or avoiding situations, virtually or in reality. Then there is another block which is not really a good one!  The writer’s block!!  Yes, I did call myself a writer, well at least I believe so and strive to be one. And having a block for months is intolerable and unpleasing to the least. How Does it feel like? Staring right at the screen, trying to form a logical sequence of some random thoughts coming in your mind.  But you just couldn’t get hold of it.  Every sentence typed is back spaced until your eyes are bloodshot, hair’s a mess and your will power diminished. That stonewalled feeling, where there is an acute numbness is what I actually felt ever

Does action really speak louder than words?

Hey there, been a while that I could write something, writer's block maybe ...Or maybe just lazying around trying to write an article that makes me look super cool . So today I finally gave in, and wrote what abstractly came into my mind. Maybe it won't be perfectly framed, but I am sure while reading it you can resonate with my thinking . Yes coming back to my thoughts on this saying,  : "Actions speak louder than words" Well have heard this proverb since childhood. But does this really hold true for our age? The way I see it I am not really sure . Millennials ideally have lost the patience to stop and build relationships at face value. As the generation that grew up with communication becoming  via a digital revolution, our biggest strength of being connected has also became our biggest weakness. We can easily write down wonderful words on timelines, but fail to sincerely compliment our friends in person.  We literally are growing up

Over with Over-Thinking!

Are yaar tu kitna sochti hai …. Familiar line right? I have been a receiver of this line like a zillion times. Well yes, sometimes we do happen to screw up our peace of mind by just sulking over a certain situation and then presuming outcome or regretting that we could have done it some other way.    In both the situations --it’s futile! Neither we can time travel and change things nor can we predict any outcome by our thoughts alone. There is no good in over thinking . Well true, and as individuals we all realize this too. But can we really stop ourselves from ruminating? Honestly, that would hold a No for me. If I have to spill a secret here, I’d say there was a time when I was engrossed in the vicious cycle of ruminating or over thinking as the people around me were calling it. I had zoned out , started losing out on the people around me for some vivid situations in my head, my relationships were getting affected, my mood used to be for a swing always: High, low, st
