Stay Lit at Perspective

Becoming a writer begins with becoming an observer. One who looks closely to the things happening around us and can express it, in a much wider, deeper and brighter way. Wider in the sense that a writer is someone, seen in the society, as someone who can express things that most people cannot in words. Who are writers? We are wordsmiths, and we know how to cultivate the right emotions through our words. Deeper and more profound in the sense… that writers do not just look at something and write that. Our muse almost resides in looking underneath the things that are happening in society. This is why, when I had written in my book, Kaliyuga on My Curls : “ Destroyed buildings do not terrify me, What terrifies me is the lost identity ” My observation was attached to the bombings in Ukraine by Russia that had destroyed a school.

  Where is the home, Of the Homeless? Where is the shame, Of the Shameless? The heartless sleeps sound. Like vampires in a hound In empires built of wounds In circles round and round. Where is the home, Of the Homeless? Where is the shame, Of the Shameless? Where is the duty- Endowed with the powers? Or did the anarchist sacrifice it? To survive the need of the hour!

Wake up, can't you see! Sleep paralysis is not a bliss.  Not every time a princess finds a frog.  They are meant to have a kiss. 

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...
