Unnecessarily Glorified Solitude

-

 People have unnecessarily glorified solitude without knowing how scary it is. 

I mean standing up for them is beautiful. Standing up for someone, with them, by their side is peaceful.

 Yes, you want to be alone. You don't want an accountability partner. You want no one to know you. And yet, them saying "I am here for you" is bigger than any promise ever made. It is more special than any vow anyone swoon before. 

It is like SRK singing,

 "...Chaahe jo tumhe, pure dil se
Milta hai woh mushkil se,
Aisa jo koi kahin hai,
Bas wohi sab se haseen hai..."
Yes, you are broken. 
Having less to speak with is all that you wish for.
But, know who to leave behind and whom not to.

Not every soul deserves to suffer through you collateral damage.

Fear is but, A Lack of Faith

There is nothing called fear. It's just a lack of faith. A lack of faith on yourself, or on a person. A lack of self confidence. A lacking of belief on the power of your skills. Fear, is just the basic feeling which comes out of the anxiousness of an unseen, unknown future.  You fear when something changes & you don't have the least idea of how are the winds going to sail you. Fear is the reaction when you give in to the uncertainty and uncontrollability of things happening in your life. Fear has no independent existence. It is but a lack of faith on yourself.  When you wish for a definite and exact outcome, but you cannot assure it for yourself, there comes fear. Fear is the but a lack of faith on the existential possibility of your desires. When you conjure up images that are opposite to your dreamland, to your wishing well.  When those contradictory images look more real and probable, we fear.  If you are getting this, you'd understand that there c...

Art & Algorithm

 Do you really think that writers or painters have a pattern in being mused and amusing you? Do you really think that it is practically possible for any writer to wake up in the morning with a new hunch and inject in you a motivational punch? Haa! Maybe you don't. But the influential social media and the urge to be found in a web traffic has made the writers and other artists feel that their art should come out in a pattern that matches the social media algorithm and help them to get found or let's say in the Gen Z fashion, 'trend'...! Beginning from a few years ago till a few week ago, I too have tried to fit in an algorithm. The social media hashtags, you see. Fit in how the keywords works, how the hashtags can be used, what people are liking, what modern influencers are doing. And especially try to see if my posts has reached the algorithm approval or not. Surprisingly, whatever I did, did not work. Was it a surprise? No... It had not been working past four years, wh...

What is so difficult about Trying?

Over the last few days, I have been playing basketball in my courtyard. It is nothing professional. It is just a recreational activity without a cemented court or rules. My mother had planned to tuck a basket at a good enough height at the anterior wall, and now I have been playing basketball, where my premium activity is to basket the ball without anyone snatching it away from my hands.  Let me tell you a secret? It is very tiring. Almost equal to giving up.  Every time I throw the ball above at it, the ball either gets hit on the wall and bounces back (not at me) at the other end of the yard. I would rush to catch it (without success) and run till the end of the fences where the ball had almost nowhere to go. I will take it back and try again and again it would get hit on the wall and push me to rush at some other direction. Tiring stuff. Fun yes, Tiring more.  It was tiring, because I was trying.  One of the hardest things about trying is that we feel we are not d...
