They refuse to grow up

Some adults always want to be treated like kids. They want their stupidity to be seen as a cute thing. There are times I really wish I found it cute and could ignore it. Would save myself a lot of trouble that way.

Once bitten, twice shy ? Forever ? No no.

When you get a jolt in life, you tend to slow down.You tend to shut yourself off. Withdraw. Introspect. Gradually, that rhythm begins to come back. That lust for life revives. You will begin to surprise yourself. Patience and belief in yourself will never leave you hopeless for long.

What is important is how you interpret your past. How you look at it. If you analyze your actions and underlying thoughts and if you are open to criticism, it would be easier for you to take a step forward. To be in a right frame of mind, you have to accept yourself first and only then will you not add to your baggage but learn from your experience.

If your guards are up, you will save yourself some trouble. But never letting them down, will make your life dull. Trust yourself. Trust others too. Because that's the only way to live a happy life.

Discover life

If alcohol is your escape plan then you are probably doing the wrong thing. All it will do, is drag you back into your painful past that you are trying to run away from, in the first place. It can magnify your pain if that's what you wish for. You can never escape. 

Truth is alcohol and that intense pain in your heart cannot help you fathom depths of life. No secrets are revealed. It might introduce you to your inhibitions, if that's the secret you are looking for. 

Accept your past. Forgive yourself. Forgive others. Be honest to yourself. Find another road to walk on. You may understand your purpose in your journey. How would you know if you don't try? How would you know if you give up on life? Who is going to find it out for you? If you fixate your eyes on the end result, you would remain lost forever. Its a slow discovery. Its a personal discovery. There cannot be one answer.

Life

Life is weird. You can go from being strangers, to being friends, to being more than friends, to being practically strangers again- Morgan Freeman

Well, bade bade deshon mein, itne saare logon mein, yeh choti choti baatein hoti rehti hai

letting go


All that baggage is not worth keeping. People manipulate because you allow them to. In any case, you have to go through it all to understand yourself better. My present is the best i have seen in my life. After this long journey, i am getting to know what relationships really mean. Life has begun to unfold in a way that has brought hope. Onwards journey will only get better.

moksh

i spent just 2 weeks with moksh and i miss him already. i tried to think why. probably it is his innocent gestures. That night when we sprang our hands in the air and brought them down together in synchronization making strange noises. Again and again and again. We laughed to glory without tiring. When we rolled in bed and he laughed. That little kid who is barely 200 days old is a delight to be with.

Reality of experiences

When you look back at your experiences, you tend to color them differently. Reasons could be many. I doubt those versions are authentic in terms of what you really felt and why you did what you did. Perhaps, diaries give you a better picture than narrations that depend on memory and status quo

Escapism


When you distance yourself from reality then tokenism, symbolism can please you which otherwise would seem petty and inconsequential. Some people believe in miracles. Miracle do happen but placing your bet on miracles can indicate either of the two things - you are helpless with no alternative or you are foolish. Former is rare, latter is more often observed.

Eternal favourite


doesn't fully go with the song, yet.

Being a recluse is no fun,
whether a choice or disposition.
A greater cause of worry
is adherence to a machinery,
to think alike that compels,
scooping out human intelligence.
Feeding monsters hidden in morality
We call it "Society"

Hiding behind humour

Making a joke out of mediocrity is not unheard of. Yet people almost everywhere use it to evade their responsibilities. Its hardly funny but annoying yes. Why is it so widely accepted? Is the world full of mediocres?

Earn it

It makes no sense to demand anything from anyone. Everything has to be earned. Even the right to be called a mother.

Audacity to hope

Most of the times what you perceive as fearlessness is actually just a cover up. Nevertheless it is a beginning. "Yahan tak to aaye mere yaar, aagey ka rasta bhi ban jayega." Never lose hope.

Fabde

So this guy who claims to know Bengali wanted to tell a man to throw the stone away. So he told him "pathor ke fabde diye dao". That man understood and did it. May be this is how sometimes new words are created and a language gets transformed. For good or bad.

Misconstrued love

If you give away your life despite knowing your lover breathes in your breath, you never loved. You just left your lover in lurch...in life long pain. You were probably busy loving and hating yourself. Had you been in love, you would have lived and struggled for that someone until your last breath

Passing thought

Came across this thought while solving a morning puzzle. If by stripping someone of her illusions, you run the risk of driving her mad, you may want to consider not doing it. What good is truth if it can potentially demotivate? And after all, that truth is "your" opinion. We all know what a human mind is capable of. Allow yourself to be pleasantly surprised.
