Somebody Vs. Anybody

Miles to Go!! Before I sleep...

Often, I end up having an argument with my dear ones! Do you?? My most favorite and the most recent argument is “to be somebody or anybody in life!!” 
The situation goes…
Last night I was flipping through the pages of one of my favorite writer Mahātria Rā’s, “Most and More”. It was then, a phrase caught my attention, “what do you want to be, somebody or anybody”, made me explore it further, not like I am against “being someone”, but are we sure, one can enjoy the entire journey by being just someone?? 
At once, Like most of us, I felt yes! I want to be somebody in my life and considering, my clarity on my thought and I knew the other second, that I am born to be somebody who must create a difference in people's life. Somebody who could be an inspiration to the world having wings to fly to explore, come what may, I will reach my destination. With this thought, I went off to sleep.
The next morning I figured, whatever goes on in our head is actually the food for our minds to ponder over. Probably the reason why I believe we must never sleep with hate and anger, anyway, coming back to where we started,
That morning when the alarm went off I was not just awake my mind was subconsciously hovering over the thought I had the previous night. “Why can’t you be anybody during the journey to becoming somebody?” was the first question that struck my mind, the first thing in the morning. Yes! that's what I want to be, it's like you’ve got wings, you’re flapping them, but you just have no idea how far can you travel with them, you are not meant to stay in the same garden forever.
Why do you limit yourself to being just somebody? Why can't you be just anybody or be a people’s person? You might love to interact! You might enjoy art! Listening to music! A fan of poetry and storytelling! Writing! Teaching! Just Anything! That is what I do and that is who I am!

When you decide to become someone, you along with other people keep pulling you back to be the one and eventually we end up being in the same garden, they will keep stopping you!! They will define your limits within which you are then allowed to fly, and it's us who's responsible for this, we need to tell them our world is beyond their imagination, especially to the ones who keep defining our limits. You are not Limited and this journey is all about exploring the best version of ourselves every day! Why do you want to allow anyone to Limit your personal self? Or even us?? 
You’ve your own area of interest, your field, and your expertise and you can achieve everything you wish to, to become someone by being anyone in that zone.
You have your goal, now start exploring!!

Priority...? Must be self Love!

Whats' your Priority? Despite the fact that it keeps changing with time!   Call it some societal pressure; or call it her upbringing, perfection is expected from every sphere of her life, given any amount of stress or pressure, she must "know it all" is a wonderful presumption and as she ages perfection becomes synonym to her name... these expectations put more pressure on her to balance everything that she holds in her kitty.  Oh No! I am not a feminist, I would rather prefer to stand against "fake feminism".  Because I agree with no shame and guilt that men handle the same, probably the more pressure to be a perfect son, a perfect partner,  a perfect husband, and a perfect father, and it is understood so well, that the things are changing, new notions are building, perceptions are improving, point of views are being accepted yet what remains constant is a  question.. "ladki hai, kar legi?"  All We want is to ensure that "ladki hai,...

This too shall pass!!

This too shall pass!!  There’s no tear, there’s no emotion!! There’s no guilt!! Nor any blame game!  For somehow, I knew this, in some way or the other, I was preparing myself to welcome the change! Somehow, I was aware, someday this would turn out to be an uneventful end! Cribbing! Crying! Tantrums! Tears and lost energy!! Are easier to fetch!! Somehow, I know how to pack it all and name it “trash”! And that would make my emotions and feelings feel sublime! Since when caring for self, and being selfish became a crime? I wish to drift my energy where my universe would lead! That’s somehow is one side of the story, because the other says… That I will never miss you! Because you’re still there, in my mind, in my soul, so alive! That I feel the presence around all the time! My emotions are real! My feelings are prolonged and my love is unconditional, absolute, unrestricted and selfless!! Which I failed to impress!!  And even after all this, I wish to sway, to the land far aw...

The Girl With The Dark Circles

Oh, they are precious! I love to carry them and sometimes flaunt them too. The best part of having them is they work as a natural human (Male) repellent too! These have given me a new title altogether, and people ask, why do I adore them? Why can’t we just be proud of something we’re born with? Why do you wish to get rid of everything that seems imperfect to the world? the more we are obsessed with getting rid of something and curse it, the more they appear and the more they stuck! Isn't it? Studies have proved it, and I have experienced this fact. Well talking of the craziest questions raised rather rumors spread for people with dark circles are the funniest ones. “she must be in a relationship, ask me!”, “she doesn’t seem happy with him”, “she doesn’t get enough sleep”, “She’s too much into book yaa”, “she doesn’t have a schedule.” “She’s too lazy to do something for herself”. My life is therefore controlled by my dark circles and people’s judgment and opinion over them, and leas...
