An ode to my Almosts
I cannot count on my fingers the things that I fail to learn in the first attempt. The colour of the soil after a thunderstorm, The spilled coffee on the floor The heena on the hands of newly wed bride are the same shades of brown Every six months I lose a person, a dream,…

Gold
Gold can mend broken vases and make them look more beautiful than the overrated flowers that lie in there waiting for a human to pick them up and burry them from where they came- soil But unlike flowers, humans will never appreciate zero displacement always being unaware that even though how many mountains we climb…

Nine Step Formula
One. Listen to what they say when they are around 10 people, and listen to what they say when they are with you and your air of existence. Do they still have the same tone and choice of words? Asterik only if people like to be alone with you. Or if you are cat. Two.…

Sparks create Fire
It’s strange How we generalize the behavior of all humans towards us, by making barriers in our minds because of some unfortunate past experiences. Every individual is different, has a different heart, and not everyone wants to hurt you. Once in a while we should just open our minds and hearts and explore people. Though…

Wings, Plane or Parachute?
