Beautiful paradox.

All her life she inked and recited the tales of love, hope, happiness, sadness and despair to the world that would get lost in her profoundness. Her stories had that illusive effect, helping people escape reality for a while. She read, she wrote, she imagined, she created. She carved stories that could break one's heart yet heal it at the same time. She was nothing short of a magician who could cast spell with her enchanting stories.

But, the magician of profound emotions, intricate words and beautifully heart wrenching stories couldn't ink a single word when it was time to talk about her story. The story of her love, her life and everything that made her such an amazingly beautiful paradox could never be created. Wondering why?

Well, she was a storyteller who knew every story has an end. And, how could she pen her own story when all that she wanted in her love and life was "forever".

Her reality was different from the stories she inked. A beautiful paradox she was, didn't I tell you?

Complexities and Ironies.

All our lives we keep fighting and struggling for our dreams. However, the irony lies in the fact that when finally those dreams come true, our happiness is accompanied with a little sadness too for the reason that there would no more fights and struggles which were our only companion during that tough phase of survival.

We humans are no less than a paradox. All our lives we wait for our destination and once we reach there, we start missing the journey that paved avenues for the destination. We are everything made up of complexities, aren't we?

Fights and struggles define us.

Life, a paradox in itself has a way of changing our lives when we least expect it. We can be happy at a moment and the very next moment something can break us completely. That is why life happens to be profoundly beautiful yet sad and tragic at times.

Life ain't perfect for anyone. If we see carefully we shall find that everyone around us is a little broken, who wants to give up on life at some point. They are tired of collecting their broken pieces and standing strong all the time. So, what is the ultimate plan? Does life come with an escape route? Is giving up the only way left? Ofcourse not! Never give up on yourself because no one else but you alone can get yourself out of the mess that life has created around you. You might be broken, you might be tired of trying but, please cling on the hope of having a better tomorrow, a better life and a better world because "the wound is the place where light enters you". This painfully beautiful line from Rumi sums it all, doesn't it?

Hoping helps and so does being broken because broken people know the worth of being strong. They have been through the excruciating pain that life induced them with and still manage to fight with it everyday. No matter if they lose their every fight to life and destiny every single day, that doesn't make them any less of a fighter. They keep fighting, they keep struggling, they keep losing unless a day comes when fights and struggles become their companion, their life.

If you were never wounded, you won't know the value of healing. If you were never lost, you won't know the value of being found. If you never failed, you won't know the value of success and if you were never broken, you won't value the strength of being strong.

So no matter how broken or wounded you are, no matter how many times you lost your way, no matter how many times you fail, never ever give up on yourself because at the end of the day it is our fights and struggles that truly define who we are and who we can be.

Spring is about to come!

Don't be sad because the spring is gone. See the profound marks it left everywhere. Be it the blossoming flowers, the sky that seems like the nature's canvas or the chirping birds adding colours to that canvas, everyone is happy. You know why?

Because what goes around, comes around. Till then, lets cling to our dreams and hopes, wishing that spring shall be around the corner soon, very soon. ☺

So, don't be sad because the spring is gone. Okay? ☺

Choices.

Nobody is responsible for your happiness or sadness. It is all about the choices you make that land you up in situations whether happy or sad.

YOU, solely you are responsible for the way life happens to you.

So, don't crib and blame your fate, the people around you if things don't go your way because it was your choice whether right or wrong.

Be mature and deal with it, fair enough? Isn't it?

#ItsAllAboutTheChoicesYouMake.

I shall be gone!

Someday I shall be gone, people who love me might miss me, cry over me too but, time has a way of making people forget everything. Maybe this is how life is meant to be. Life goes on, remember? The very thought that someday I shall become just a distant memory scares me. The memories of my presence shall be blurred, lying in the corner of laptop, mobile folders or maybe in the recycle bins too. And, this feels terrible.

I wonder if I shall be more than just a distant memory for anyone? I hope, I shall be. Because, I want to be remembered. I want to be cherished. And, someday, few years down the line when I pass through anyone's memory, I hope they think about me with a smile, a genuine one. :)

Being judgemental.

I am not judgmental. I know there is a reason why a particular person behaves in a certain way. I believe that unless I know their story, I am nobody to judge them. I have heard people saying that how much they hate a particular person and I have always said them ‘HATE IS A BIG WORD’. You can dislike someone but, you should not hate.

But, at times I feel as if I am contradicting my own thoughts. I tend to dislike people easily. I feel bad when a person doesn't smile back at me. I ignore that maybe he/she had a bad day. I get hurt if someone doesn’t reply me back. I fail to understand that maybe he/she is actually busy. I hate certain people [Yes, hate is a big word!] just because we don’t get along very well. I get judgmental towards a person ‘cause once I had a fight with him/her. I was the one who stopped talking to them in the first place and still I consider them as egoistic. [Irony!]

I know, I am not the only one. Everyone reading this post has been there and done that. We often contradict our own thoughts and beliefs, don’t we?

We can judge people but, we get furious if others do the same. This is so not fair.

Ever thought of having a heart to heart talk with the one you don’t get along well?

Ever thought of initiating a conversation with the one you stopped talking?

Well, I did that today and I was happily surprised that how wrong my judgement was. I realized that the person I had a fight with doesn't hold any grudges against me. That fight has long been forgotten. It existed just in my head. I realized that the person I don’t get along well has so much to talk with me. We have so much in common. I realized that the hate and dislike was not mutual. It was just one sided. [Evil me!]

I feel relieved today. Hatred is a burden whereas friendship, understanding and love sets you free from this burden.
It’s said that ‘To err is human’ but learning from those mistakes is also all about being humane! :)

Remember, hating is easy but, loving is way more easier. ^_^

Okay!

At times, it's fine just to be okay. No happiness, no sadness, just a simple okay because being okay is peaceful. When I am okay, I am at solace. Okay spares me from the unnecessary chaos of "why are you happy?" or "what makes you sad?" questions.

Neither I am a happy person nor I happen to be a sadist, I am an "okay" person who is trying to be at peace with everything.

I have been okay from a while and this is working perfectly fine with me. Being okay makes my life kind of sorted.

Okay? Okay! :)

It's already midnight.

It's already midnight and sleep seems a distant dream. Caged in her thoughts, she looks outside the window towards the sky embedded with stars. When loneliness stucks her hard, stars are her companions, the one which does all the talking in her world built up of profound emotions, a world which can't be defined or explained, a world of imagination where nobody judges her. And, when she was free from the fear of being judged, she was the best version of herself 'cause this is the time when she was really herself. No fake smiles, no masks, just a simple girl with beautiful dreams and profound thoughts.

She smiles lightly. Her eyes get a little moist. Maybe some memories have come to give her company too. And, suddenly it is raining outside. This makes her grin.

"Afterall how could you let me cry alone! So you made the sky cry with me too, didn't you?" She chuckled and kept talking with her stars until she dosed off with a smile that was beyond beautiful. Magical it was!
