Sit by the beach and...


I like to sit by the beach and watch waves do their things for hours. I like how they just come and go, bringing things to the shore and carrying things away.

I love to sit by the beach and feel the salty air on my face. I say thank God, this time it's not my tears as I chuckle softly.

I love to sit by the beach and watch crows caw and try to fly against the wind, failing again and again.

 I admire to sit by the beach and observe the sun rise with all the new rays of positivity, promising good things and showing us the realm of it.

I wish to sit by the beach and hope for better memories while the sun sets, assuring me that everything will be alright. 

I long to sit by the beach and watch the moonlit night drive the waves crazy, making them all high. I persuade myself that the waves are just waves.

I hope to sit by the beach and just hope.

Bigger Person!

In the process of being the bigger person, people often think you're easy—someone who will always come back, no matter what. The art of being a better person is often confused with being the bigger person. For me, when you have to be the bigger person, you don't have to forgive every single person for their every single mistake. "Mistake" might be the wrong word, as who are we to judge, but if soemone has hurt you, then you don't have to accept their apologies without a genuine apology from them. In the act of forgiveness, you tend to carry all the dead weight of your life! Yes, you heard me right! Not everyone is genuinely present in your life, and life at times throws you off balance to help you understand this and to cut that weight. But no! You're told you need to be the bigger person, which in turn supposedly makes you the better person! If you don't make people face the consequences for their actions, then you're simply becoming a par...

maybe we simply can't

It has been a while since I penned something down… Because most didn’t care when I did, and there was a point in time, it affected me. Anyway, here it goes! Timelines … Dec 2023 - identified that the work life is hectic, and it may cost my personal time…. little did I know, damage was already done. Jan 2024 - didn’t know what to do, biggest achievement of my life but later in the month guilted me for even thinking of celebrating. Feb 2024 - running blind and pointless, screaming in the void. Mar 2024 - searching for happiness, not in words, trying to find the familiarity in something or anything… getting sucked into a black hole. April 2024 - fearing the end, anxious 24/7, still functioning at my max work capacity. May 2024 - searching for help, not through exact words, but actions, my face could say it, someone holding my hand could have said it… all I had was to be there… I gave up… I drowned in my misery for the first and the last time …  my dog noticed, only he noticed… ...

One day...

One fine day, a long, painful problem got resolved, and then I decided to thank the lords for helping me solve them. I looked up the auspicious temples listed online, according to history and mythological stories. It did take an effort, travel, money, and time. But hey, it is where God resides, isn't it? So I made all the arrangements accordingly and was ready. While waiting for my flight in the lounge, I read the news where a state was almost drowned due to floods, and the lives of at least hundreds were just destroyed. Families were washed away in this turmoil. I thought, what bizarre that these families must have done to anger the same Lord I was going to visit! Appalled to say the least. On my way from the airport, while in the car I noticed a bunch of homeless people in a hurry to find shelter as it started pouring out. They had about a 2x2 area which was covered by very cheap and, to my perspective, a dirty plastic cover.  I was wondering why they are on the road...
