HOW I MET MY MOTHER

-
Like many other people, I loved my mother a lot, since childhood, I walked holding her hand, telling her even when I went to pee, I was clingy. She has always been my person, my mum.  As a toddler life is all chill and fun, only sleep, eat and play. At that age everyone is your friend and no one is really your enemy; you cry when your father gets a clean shave or when your mother loves your sibling more, to tease you. The easy part of life ends there. Then you enter your school, as a child pretty much unaware of how the world functions. You get some enemies at this stage but nothing much personal. Your mother is still your best friend and knows all about your life. Waking up to go to school every day, class politics and some bullying maybe, some struggles add-in, but all good otherwise. Then comes, the nightmare, the truth and face off with brutality, the teenage years. You push away most people, things and habits that you loved doing just a year ago. You have crushes, heart breaks...

App of the Week.

-
 Do you ever wonder to get knowledge and experience of a different culture from yours, like a whole other world, if you do, like I did, I may have something for you. The other day scrolling through Play Store for some fun game, I came across this app. It looked cool and to be honest kinda shady, I thought to myself this has got to be some Ai generated thing. I looked through the comments they were all looking cheesy and unreal as Ai is.  But I went ahead and downloaded it anyways. Guess what, I was wrong. The app was genuine with people actually writing out to others, in different parts of the world. They all shared their vivid experiences, all about their lives. It was really unexpected.  The name of the app was SLOWLY, it helps you to connect with friends from different countries. It is a pen pal app, you can choose your preferences and it gives a real delivery time experience like real letters. It feels so true. If you live let's say in America and your pen pal is from...

The grief.

-
 The loss of a loved one is something most of us have faced, to the ones who have not, lucky you. Coming to terms with a death in the family is something so cruel and brutal for this beautiful world. One morning you wake up all well and good but the fragile, uncertain life hits you with reality, with the hard hitting truths. You say to yourself, 'My parents are really getting old, they might leave me all alone in this world. I will miss them so much.' Then few years, months or days down the line the same turns reality. It's hard, to not feel saddened by the thought of this, the thought of end. It's hurtful, it's killing and it is definitely hitting. But it is true. Something that is real and not false. The thing is life throws a lot of valid/ invalid incidents for which we as a person decide how to move forward with. Such heavy grief, it can make you question your own sanity. But that's when it's time to be brave, to not kneel down to the demon. Instead be c...

UNTITLED

-
I am not much of a speaker; rather, I am an observer. For me, life is beautiful in ways not everyone can notice or realize. I like to keep quiet about it; that way, I have my own unique way of looking at things.  When I was a kid, I didn't talk much. I was labeled as a shy kid. Maybe it was cute back in kindergarten, but as I reached my teenage years, it made me 'AVERAGE'—always confused (daydreaming), not very interested in class. Even though I knew many things, I didn't answer. Most days, I didn't want to be me. I just wanted to be one of those girls who spoke effortlessly to whomever they wanted. But I kept everything inside. Then, one day during my 10th-grade exams, I blurted it all out—how unfair things were (or felt), how I hated being who I was. Nerdy, shy kid. But in reality, I was the opposite. I don't remember much of my younger days, but what I do remember is being unheard. By the time I realized all these things, I had already turned 18. Eighteen yea...
