How many windows would you settle for in a house? Whether they are open or closed, will speak of the weather and prevailing mood Would it be too distracting for the neighbourhood when light escapes through them? Distracting the passersby, when their eyes wish to see the road ahead clearly Hope, a house with many windows do not become a mysterious legend Perspectives change too; … Continue reading Windows
Are we becoming chronically serious? As society becomes more technical, clinical, and algorithms oriented, there are certain aspects of human behaviour getting erased every day. Now we have access to information and digitized knowledge databases to educate ourselves, but there are not enough credible teachers, who are philosophically balanced to help us analyse every piece of information. So, we are absorbing a huge amount of … Continue reading Settling the Doubts
Protecting yourself from inclement weather becomes an arduous task when you cannot help weave a strong social fabric. The feelings of being exposed to the harshness, deceit, and voyeuristic eyes unsettle the innocent soul. Eyes witness the social degradation as it crumbles helplessly. Dust of destruction settles deep within the lungs, thus choking the breathing and the freedom to inhale life. What remains are the remains of hostility; humanity fails every time they battle against each other. The image of self-destruction is a persistent nightmare in the history … Continue reading Intentions
The absurd trophies sit there, silently mocking the grandiloquent achievements Participating in the events where ridicule for cerebral ideologies was the cause of celebration Where stony words were hurled so easily; the multiple reflections of a fractured community Privilege to become an antagonist when such desires are abundantly honoured with glistening trophies Time is usually contorted to portray the meaning of existence in a controversial manner … Continue reading Deceptive Times
Creativity is personal, mostly, a solitary journey to create a narrative from some ideas. This intrinsic experience is then presented to the world where many curious eyes try to interpret them. It is true, they will be misinterpreted and sometimes even left unattended because of the strong emotions they manage to stir. Creativity is continuity! There is a special relationship with this journey; it can … Continue reading Fate of Creativity
Creativity is a journey where you will be questioned about the intentions. When you create something, especially a story from your imaginations, you have to be convinced about your ability to conceive every aspect of an idea. An idea is just the beginning, maybe a point; a pulsating core, from which you radiate across the spectrum of creativity. Are you really writing what you genuinely … Continue reading How far Creativity can Journey
Truncated stories do not have the luxury of expressing the entire situation, while the characters fumble with the lessened enthusiasm of emotions. From here, starts a struggle between the legitimate aspirations to speak with freedom. If real drama is curtailed due to the paucity of strong will, there will never be satisfying communication which is sensitive to the fragile feelings nestled in the heart for … Continue reading No more Truncated Stories
Do you write with the expectations of living up to the dreams of creating a piece of literature that has never been given a voice or misunderstood and neglected by everyone? Creativity is a sword which rips open the obfuscating veils to reveal stories. Stories that have remained neglected for a long time due to the apathy of finding appropriate words to give them a … Continue reading The Eagerness to Change
We are communicating (so we would like to believe) as there is an increasing pressure to speak and react to situations, which otherwise, we would not have participated in, if not for the connected world of virtual reality. There is apprehension that our own perceptions and private thoughts are overridden by a concerted effort of digital media narratives. The plethora of views invading our thinking … Continue reading Some Communications
If only the language could be held culpable for narrating the numerous lies Lest one forget the numerous shrewd ponderings to choose them deliberately To translate and train the tongue with fluent ability to invade logical communication It’s a blatant mockery of thinking and moving away from sympathetic dialogues Those lame-brains who consider learning this possible way of subservient existence Along the way language has … Continue reading Harsh Tone
