Epiphanies and Reflections

I've been trying to write for a while now, but I just couldn't. 

I recently read something on Tumblr that helped me kick start writing. I'll link it here-

It's been one month today. One month that I've lost another significant part of my life in a span of one year. It's almost funny how time flies by. The other day, I told my mum "The best and worst thing about life is that, it moves on." 

It feels like life is on autopilot, whether we choose it or not.  

Do we really move on or do we distract ourselves to maintain our sanity?



A few months back, when I was redoing my room, I bought the glow in the dark stickers for the ceiling. It just reminded me of my childhood days and I'd have my own sky to stare at, at night.  I don't remember the last time I looked up at my ceiling and admired them. 



I either read like there's no tomorrow or I don't read at all. I read to escape. Lately I've been reading a lot, to a point where I already know what my next book is going to be.

When going out on Sunday, my mum was hesitant considering Monday was the next day and she hadn't finished her work. And I said "Tum kal ke liye apna aaj nahi bigaad sakte ho". Maybe I should take my own advice.

I listen to this one spoken word poetry- its about paper boats. It reminds me how one monsoon, not too long ago, my friends and I made paperboats and bid them goodbye in fresh rainwater. I tried making paper boats the other day, I couldn't remember which way to fold.


For a while now, I've been going to dance classes and last month, for the first time, I took  a month long break. By the end of it, I felt like something was amiss- movement, joy and feeling refreshed. Sometimes we only know the value of something in its absence. 


I cut off an inch of my hair and I instantly felt lighter. Like a load had been lifted off. I wonder what I'd feel like if I just unload all my thoughts. Maybe I'd be able to fly. (finally)

Things Nooone Tells You About Grief

For a while now, I've been trying to look for comfort in words. When I experienced loss, the kind of loss that shook my body away (literally) mentally and physically, I took my time to heal and more usually than not, I gravitated towards reading. Reading about someone facing familiar emotions and feelings kept me sane. I hope that this post helps you find comfort if you've ever experienced loss or are still trying to mend your heart.   There's a scar on my left leg and it has been that way for a while, something which I had developed recently due to let's say, carelessness. Everyday I took my time examining it, I realized  it changed colors but never turned better. I eventually stopped caring. But my loved one(who I lost, recently) made it a point to ask me how bad the scar was, everyday. After a while, when I started caring again, I looked over the scar, it got better.  I think grief is a lot like that,  it changes colors, takes it's time to heal  but even...

  One thing I absolutely love and spend most of my free time doing is finding new things- Art, Books, Music, Shows, Movies, Poems and I can go on and on and on. Most things I find are usually through Pinterest, YouTube Comments, Following a few YouTube Channels, Reading an Author’s Favorite or about his inspiration (Always a great way to find great art) . Here are a few things I’ve discovered this month so far- Music: Let’s start with something easy. I don’t really have a specific genre of music that I like but I think it could be broadly classified as Retro Chill or Vintage Vibe. This month I’ve Come across something a little different.  Halsey’s - “I'm not a Woman, I’m a god Halsey’s- “Girl is a Gun Cage the Elephant’s -”Cigarette Daydream” Lord Huron’s - “Long Lost” Honestly, I love the Lyrics of Halsey’s new songs, Makes me feel confident and powerful but Cigarette Daydream and Long lost have been playing on loop. Lord Huron’s have a sense of Calm and a weird sense of f...
