Nearing adulthood.



The phase of life - II

        Idle man's mind is a devil's workshop is all that we have heard, but it can also be when creativity begins. Years back I started this blog on one such moment of my idleness. Now am recreating the same moments. The phases of life I had thought earlier were common and smooth, but now I Face a new phase of life with uncertainty and confusion.

        The phase of life we hate to be in with. We have got lots to do, yet we stay lazy. we have got lots to read, yet we chose to close the books and never open them. There are many "yets" we do in this phase. We find it hard to focus and never even think of things which were once our dreams or goal. Maybe this part of life is inevitable and we all are bound to face it anyhow. 

        This is that portion of life we confuse our self about what we wanna be and trying to craft our future. But the truth is we cannot do any of those - "true story".In this moment of idleness, we also tend to narrate our past to ourselves and sit regretting things, which gives us no option other than getting more depressed. It's now that we should close the past chapters and do the 'yet'.It's strange that no one can skip this portion and jump off to the future either, So just move along the course and just be what we are now and life changes us when its time...

       All we have to think when things get hard on us is "It's not time, just stay calm"
To the people who are in this phase. we are nearing the doors that open to our real future ahead that clear out all confusion.
Just wait for it .... :) 

On such an idle day...

"I sat on my couch on a rainy day, wearing socks to keep me warm, and downloaded a devotional app on my phone. It's then I realized what I really want and am. I am being the good old daughter of my mother in the way she wants me. I was frustrated when my teacher turned me down about the interview I didn’t want to be a part of in the beginning. I had a hard time early that day finding out who I am, where I belong to, but as time passed on I could see the picture becomes clear. I am a person who is lazy but like to be with people I care for. I do mistakes and ready to accept them too. I love to be loved.  I am a person who wants things neat and tidy but works for them rarely and finds satisfaction when I do it. I was worried about being jobless but then realized I have got lots of time to accomplish things I love to do, not things being forced to do!. I found myself feeling happy seeing me in the clean mirror I just wiped, which am good at. If only ‘cleaning mirrors’ can be added to my resume.

Never mind, I can still clean the mirrors and see the ‘real me’- clear. The realization of what I am made me feel guilty and good at the same time. Years after the journey I reached here, where I think good and bad about the same things. I attained the state of mind to be empathetic than sympathetic. Then I started to hope back that things are going to fall into the right places. 

The only thing I have to do is let it go…….on its way"

The Tale of Love

THE MEOW @ 3AM Meerrrowww......mreo... I could hear this vague sound getting more intense as time passed. I tried harder to open my eyes for I was having a beautiful film made inside my eyes. I could see only darkness or dint I open my eyes yet? Oh, yea, it was midnight and that explained the darkness. ‘ Mrew ’ that feeble voice rang again inside my ears. I turned my face left to see Pichku standing on her two legs supporting on the bed facing my ears so that her sound waves will penetrate directly into my eardrums. Gosh, I wished my bed had longer legs!!! ‘It's 3 a.m., what do you want?’ my eyes asked Pichku. With her dilated eyes she replied ‘What the hell, it's early morning for me, come on feed me!!’...MREEWW I threw my blanket away and got off the bed to be lead by that little four-legged creature. She pointed her ears back to make sure I was following her. She directed me to the kitchen and sat. Thanks to people who manufactured readymade pet food. I put ...

The Plot - A short Story

Anna gnashed her teeth while waiting for Sid to arrive. He was half an hour late than the time they agreed to meet. She tapped her feet restlessly as she looked all around the cafe. The entire room was painted with coffee shade and doodle works of coffee-beans here and there. Antique lamps were lit and hung on the wall, soothing music played in the background creating a good ambiance. There were ten tables inside and only three were taken including hers. Waiters dressed in red uniforms walked to and fro to get and deliver the orders. One of them approached Anna twice. She gestured to him to wait. As she looked outside she could see the Sun getting ready to sleep, spreading the yellowish-red blanket all over the sky.  The air-conditioned room started to give her chills and she sprung to the restroom. When nature is calling you to have to go! As she came back to her seat she saw Sid there. She sat facing him and called the waiter.  “Two coffees”, she ordered without asking Sid a...

Mom- The universal language

That is why they are called 'MOM'                 You wake up early in the morning to realize it's late for the last bus... You jump off the bed, take a quick bath and run to the office neatly dressed. But there goes the last bus, just when you are right at the stop. You get a cab driver to answer the call after a long try. Finally, you reach the office, rushing inside to start up your hectic schedule. Your friends accompany you to the cafeteria listening to your morning adventures!!! Gossip is in the air with work-humid in the cabin. Finishing up the day's work you reach home to toast yourself on the bed... Then there comes your mom's call. the sweet voice of her irritates you, "ya.. ya. I had my dinner.. am fine ma.. soo tired out of work, will call you later. take care bye.. "! click!... there you go into the land of dreams... At the other end of the phone, she smiles to herself. she is happy to hear her d...
