twinkle twinkle li'l star ,how i wonder what u r ..... !!

-
It all seems like an old memory ,the time when i would laugh with all my heart till tears flew in my eyes ,the time i didn't feel lonely even with just familiar strangers around me , the time when i looked forward to set my hair down and enjoy without having a care for anything in the world ,the time when i felt really alive.

Now things have changed ,times have changed and so have I.

I've now reached a stage where loneliness is my only companion and the irony is that i seem to enjoy its constant long company !!!

I suddenly have no topics to talk to anyone ,the dry barren land ,those dark clouds amid clear sky ,that old tree with no leaves, all of them seem synonymous with the kind of life I'm presently leading.

The old torn curtain lets in light only through the pores.
I gaze at it for long hours , completely lost,

My senses all are failed ,in-built system all in a wreck ,so many questions ,my mind burns with n breaks ,but i get no answers for them and it just aches .

Those lovely old memories keep fluttering around. Where did that time go, when there was a sense of peace by just watching dew drops through my window, when just a butterfly sitting on my finger could curve my lips, when the only thing that could "hurt" were bleeding knees and the only things "broken" were toys !!

So many voices shout inside me but the world seems still and my senses numb.

I'm just fading away ,my essence is lost in the breeze far away...

    This is most common thing happening to any of us..
    but the trick to overcome it i guess is to stop thinking that a half filled cup as "half empty"... instead see it is as "half full"
    very nice..pathos

    Well written:) These seem to be the problems associated with the short(but important) journey from adolescence to adulthood. As they say 'it is a bend, not the end ;-)'.

    Most people(myself included) are not receptive to drastic changes yet sometimes you just have to go with the flow....

    "I'm just fading away ,my essence is lost in the breeze far away ......................"- Well, life is made of ups and downs.. To lose and rediscover oneself is a most wonderful experience:)

    Now make sure in this tumultuous condition of your's, you don't drown anyone[ I mean literally ;-)].

Love Languages

I wish I could write a solid piece of article on the current trending topic - LLMs! Instead I'm one letter short and here to talk more about LLs 😁 Gary Chapman, an American author and talk show host is credited and best known for his concept of the five love languages that humans use to express and receive love. They are:  Words of affirmation Quality time Gifts Acts of service Physical touch While it is established that people use all of these languages to some degree, a person will primarily speak one of these love languages. We all have different ways of expressing our love and have specific ways in how we want to be loved.  Perhaps this is one of the most profound concepts that can explain why relationships fall apart without placing blame on either of the parties involved. Sometimes, we fail to understand how to love the person we already love so that they also know it and then sometimes, there's a conflict/ trade-off involved where despite wanting to love someone the wa...

 It's Friday night and I had a horrible, long and tiring day at office.F inally, at 8.30pm after almost 12 straight hours of being at office and working for the day, when I got up, my slogging ass thanked me for releasing it off the pressure for a few minutes :D I expected the traffic to be better but who was I kidding? Bangalore Traffic! on a Friday night! Better?? *add a loud monstrous sarcastic evil laughter* MY FOOT!!! Riding back, thanks to the dark streets minus streetlights, as*****s who drive with high beam within city limits and potholes which are the size of a manhole, I had numerous moments where I thought today was the last day of my life on this wretched planet but guess the universe isn't done with me yet! Finally, after what seemed an hour of riding to cover a distance well within 10kms, I almost reached home if not for spotting a newly opened cafe. And suddenly, there was this beautiful thought inside my head to go on a date with myself!! I know right! That ...

"One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a cheshire cat in a tree . 'which road do i take?' she asked . 'where do you want to go?' was his response . 'I dont know',Alice answered . 'Then' ,said the cat , 'It doesn't matter ...." I travel by the same route everyday to my stop and from there board a bus to my college, which again travels on the same discovered path . While riding till my stop, I always think on how similar our life is to a road trip !! We keep treading straight ahead , not taking a moment to try out a different path or make a new one ! Travelling on the recently finished tar road makes it so easy for us to ride and that gives so much joy and excitement just like how completing certain milestones of our life gives us the proud feeling and excitement to do more how much ever easy the task was! It makes us increase our speedometer's scale of achievement and there is nobody to stop us ..........We feel o...
