Hat Tip- #7

Two more years to go until I become eligible to call myself a graduate. I met amazing people through the course of this journey; had fascinating experiences and got to learn new lessons every day. I am proud of the person I am today. Looking back, when I connect the dots that got me to the juncture I stand on the present-day, I realize how everything was architectured impeccably to make me reach here. All the breakdowns and all the accomplishments, small or big, conspired altogether to get the best out of me and make me an improved individual.

This has been an odyssey where I encountered mixed characters, but majorly those pathetic self-haters. The ones who get exhausted at the end of the day by the struggles they make at uprooting the plants in the other garden rather than cultivating and blossoming their own garden. The ones who hardly care about the porridge in their plates because they are too busy centralizing their attention on the other plate.  The ones who always find faults with the others, who always criticize and condemn others; the ones who definitely give me off the pessimistic vibe.

Ponder upon this: How beautiful it would be to see a band of dreamers, of dynamic motivators, of believers, who help pushing each other to their limits and always fill the other with a sense of impulse. I say do good to those who have been unhealthy to you at some point of time. It takes courage to do such exceptional favors. Never feel worthless in their presence rather feel swayed by their spark and inspire yourselves to work up on your garden. Ask them about the uphill battle they fought to reach there and follow their footsteps. Radiate that vibe of optimism; a feeling of combativeness to reach your goalpost come what may.

See the other not as a competitor but as a fellow comrade, and concentrate always on making your grass greener. You are beautiful the way you are. Trust, that god has the most splendid plans for you and you are exactly where you are meant to be. You would soon realise this few years down the lane. Surround yourself with constructive, forward-looking people who are reasonable and progressive. Be proud of yourself and your life. With your chin up and head held high march ahead and be a maven of this run.

A Letter to a Lethal Timid

"I quietly but persistently punished myself, shredded off the skin until nothing was left except the scent of blood on my fingers. I worked very hard to not let the black spot grow into cancer and slosh me down. On countless occasions, your needling, needless remarks pricked my conscience, and my head bursted like a dropped watermelon. You, dear hater, would never know severely have I been sliced by your venomous words. My vigor drained by the end of the day only to hear the slow pulse of its job half done. Saddened, I would scratch my wounds too deep for the healing and then let them open. I remember the nights when my insecurities hemmed in and my sense of fear filled my mouth with hot, dry air and made my body light. I used to watch you with eyes of hate before I realized that you are nothing but a pile of uncemented bricks that would never take a form, and I pitied you. I could clearly hear your enviousness and malice thudding loudly like a horse’s hoof...

Dispatch to a Friend

So this friend came to me the other day and accused me of being a paradox. He complained that your scripts talk about being vigorous and iron-willed while you, on the other hand, seem to be feeble and obscure; that you are a contradiction, full of falsehood and you drop lines on the piece of paper that you’re literally not. I let him had it at that while, because I believe I am good at pushing a pencil and am not blessed with the gift of gab. My dear friend, to you I write, I am a meek valiant. I sob at the sofa in the middle of the day, panting and yearning for something far-fetched. I am a miscalculation of theories and sentiments. While I scribble dauntless and lionhearted beliefs, I might be the most timid and reticent human being you have ever met. I am the one who fragmentizes inward and sheds bitter tears in a dark corner, rather than howling back. This ideal, prototypical girl in the back of my mind that I write about and that, in the heart of hearts, I aspire to ...

Hat Tip- #3

“Dusk is just an illusion because the sun is either above the horizon or below it. And that means that day and night are linked in a way that few things are there cannot be one without the other yet they cannot exist at the same time. How would it feel I remember wondering to be always together yet forever apart?”  ―   Nicholas Sparks ,  The Notebook #photography
