The Crossroads of Life

I’ve always been a pretty straightforward person. My whole life has been a series of blacks and whites – no grey. I can say so with certainty that even if I did accidentally slip into the grey area, I slipped out as quickly. It comes as a surprise to me at this point in life […]

The Peak of Everything

What is the peak of anxiety? Those of you who suffer from it, regularly or sporadically would know that it is a condition best described by the individual who goes through it. It truly varies from person to person. As an individual who suffers from bouts of anxiety and panic from time to time like […]

Some Flowers Bloom in April

So you decided yesterday. You decided you no longer wanted to be a part of this world so you left for the next. They say not all flowers bloom in April, some take their time. You took your time, a brief moment and decided you had done blooming, this April the flowers refused to bloom. […]

How Little?

I can’t sleep. I can’t sleep because I’m thinking of worst case scenarios in my head in the middle of the night. I’m also thinking of the fickleness of life and how little we actually know about the people we say we love. When was the last time you asked someone you love and admire […]

I Wish You Hadn’t: A Woman’s Cry In The Sub-Continent

I wish you hadn’t screamed at me like that thinking you had all the power in the world, do you not fear God? I wish you hadn’t caressed your ego, and given in to your family’s wishes over mine, I wish you knew that words have the power to hurt people in a way most […]

100th Post: The Journey So Far

I got a notification yesterday that said that I had made my 100th post. How beautiful that my hundredth post here also happens to be one that is close to my heart. I’m in the process of writing a book, and what I posted here were excerpts from the book in the previous two posts. […]

An Addict In A Candystore

Is it strange that some of my best writing brews at odd hours of the night? I don’t think so. My writing flows freely after free flown conversations that inspire me. I usually have deep conversations at odd hours with my kith and kin and it ignites a spark inside me. Perhaps conversation is my […]

Reliving Fond Memories

Sometimes talking to the people you’re close to can be so rewarding. I had an hour long conversation with one of my bros. He’s actually my best friend’s elder brother but he’s like a brother and a dear friend to me. We spoke after quite a while and it was extremely refreshing. We spoke about […]

Love That Transcends

It’s precisely 2:57 AM, right now. I was about to sleep (that was 30 minutes ago) and my mind started wandering and I felt the urge to write. It rarely ever happens that inspiration strikes 3 days in a row, it’s a personal best. I put my phone on charge, placed it on the night […]

What Was I Going To Say?

I just wrote an April Fool’s post and saved it in my drafts instead of posting it. I wasn’t sure if the joke could actually be taken as a joke or be mistaken with the truth since it was inspired by a true story to begin with. Does that make me a coward? Perhaps, or […]
