Read between the lines

You need no search at the self-help shelves to understand life and your own self, even a simple folktale can be an ultimate eye-opener if you're just willing to read between the lines .

Fabric-ated Love

Like a flowy chiffon dress touched by the wind, it was a wonderful sight, Like the sheen of Dupioni silk it brightened my days. Like a pricy cashmere scarf, it gave the warmth I've yearned to feel, Like a hand-loomed sweater no words could describe.   Too perfect that I called it an illusion. So heart-warming till I gave away my doubts. It was indeed just a vision, of pure imperfection with zero flaws. Or what the Universe called...

Over-Thinking

Men and women both are guilty of one sin, the sin of over-thinking. Well 'sin' might appear like a strong word, but sorry I can understate it any other way. Even in such hectic schedule, we still spare time to brood over things that are less significant than getting some rest or mind-relaxation. We never give our mind a break, don't we? From an argument to a  mere grey hair that we recently found, everything has a place to be cracked,...

Buried Treasure

People say memories are reminders of the past which stay fresh in mind. As mighty as it might sound, even memories become buried without a trace at times. Once if star gazing reminds us of someone, now let even a star drop on our head yet nothing of the past pops out. How insignificant can some moments become?  How people who meant the world could mean nothing at a point? I can't help but wonder what are memories if not to awaken the...

Dolly is Dead

I've known people who wake up everyday to make a mirror of their ownself. Those with strong faith of the road they travel is the answer the world is searching. If life was a test , 100 would be their score. While they fly high in the air with trophies and medals, others are viewed as charity cases who need a sprinkle of their ideologies to not drown in the sea of wrong. Some step in with genuine desires to share and help , leave them alone for,...

The Blank Page

Today I can't help but wonder, why all hellos have a goodbye. No one gets away from the moment which requires them to leave behind certain things or places, exchange the gift of memories and bid farewell for the vague idea called 'the beginning'. It's most certainly in the cards for each and every one of us, the difference though is how strong is someone's heart to accept the bittersweet truth time brings forth.  Whether you are the celebrated...

It's gonna be OK

There will be a point in your life where nothing will work, You can't go right or even turn left, There won't be a thing you can steer nor will there be something in your hands, When you reach that point, have faith. A blind hope consoling you the moment will pass and there will be a brighter day waiting to greet you soon. It costs nothing, nearly effortless I must say. So start believing . Storms have to pass, Trials must have an end, Somehow,...

To L-earn

I was born and raised in a nation which hails paper-qualifications and devote reference books like bibles, leaving me not much time and space in my mind to care about something not taught in schools and do not constitute the given syllabus. But when I grew up, I begin to develop this thirst for knowledge, to learn something, outside the world of exams or any form of assessments and just be proud of it. To my own surprise, my palm read the same,...

Read between the lines

You can be like the birds that chirps in the morning and sings us a wonderful day, or you can be like the raven whose presence is feared and triggers discomfort. However, no matter how sweetly a bird could tune, it doesn't guarantee a great start and as scary as a raven could be, it sometimes signifies no omen at all . Simply put, the obvious is not life, that's why it's not easy. Strengthen your vision, see through even the shadows of everything,...
