Be softer with you. You are a breathing thing. A memory to someone. A home to a life.

I fall in love with myself, and I want someone to share it with me. And I want someone to share me, with me.

Play A Role..!!!

Someone close to my heart and mind brought this to my attention in a very effective way that when we are born, we play a role first as a daughter, sister, friend, girlfriend, wife, mother and sooo on. It’s a role. It’s just a role!

Societal pressure says you are incomplete if you skip a role. If you skip a role of a wife and a mother and soo on then you are incomplete.. you are complete as a person as a whole. It’s just a role..! A relation cannot define kinda a person you are. You play that character, learn from it. Either you turn out to be a pathetic actor or you play it with utter grace. And when the time comes, you simply take a bow and move ahead to experience another role.

The best you can do is just be simply you and give it your all in those roles.

2:00 AM Thought

It’s high time now when some tech genius should come up with an app which records the monologues, debates and speeches you deliver in your head.

It will be a blessing as well as the award winning speeches, if you could use them in real life situations. Isn’t it?

Humour But Not Humour!

A joke is a joke if taken lightly. True!

Psychology says if we hear one perspective on the loop for a stretch of time, after a while that perspective becomes our outlook. And most of the times it pushes us to follow the hurdle and outstrip our logical thinking.

This is really sad that we have set a discredit viewpoint by constantly demeaning a profession in an attempt of making a humour out of it. In this strange time where most of the people from all the sectors have lost their jobs, business and daily wages and simply struggling for daily survival, we have rooted thought of undermining the value and work of a profession. 

The impact and the realm of social media is like a space. Its immeasurable, countless possibilities, mysterious and moreover unexpectedly astonishing. Enchantingly, it has power to drive masses (this is seriously huge). Memes have circled HR job responsibilities to rangoli and festival celebrations, really? Do we get interview call directly from a company’s MD? Does the CEO directly individually interacts with our grievances or get us timely engaged and upgraded? And the chores does not ends here. The content on social media platforms has degraded the efforts and struggles put up by these designators furthermore debased the hard work invested by them in a company to function smoothly. In addition to it, social media has fabricated a cynical interpretation of a profession.

A very logical question asked by someone from the team. If the department is really that useless then why company hires them in numbers? Why we have a team of 20 HRs professionals? Guessing the organisation only did it to have a bigger Diwali Celebration with double sized Rangoli on the floor :P.

“Yeah, yeah... Cmon yaar, Its just a joke. Don't take it so seriously."

Ohh, is that so? Okay then, good joke..!

How mesmerising it is to be a human... As they evolve .. what we were in our past, we are not that today and whatever we are today, we’ll not be the same in our future. It’s because we learn, we experience and henceforth we evolve.. isn’t it beautiful? Doesn’t matter what we did in our past as it was right at that moment so it cannot be wrong today. It will be wrong if we don’t analyse it, learn from it and improve it. So keep learning and keep that human alive.

YOU ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE!

In the midst of all the giggling, tripping and joyous jollification of a wedding, there was a 15 years old boy. Waiting on tables, cleaning up the mess and serving refreshments across the wedding hall, so that he could accumulate some cash which was enough to cover his government school fees and daily expenses. A boy with single parent, younger brother and over the hill grandparents living in a tin shed impoverished house, struggling for basic amenities.

Does that sounds over the top melodramatic and monotonous plot of every 80’s-90’s movies?

This may sound over-exaggerated, over-emotional and over-dramatic story but this anecdote here is not to gain sympathy. Let us leave that up to the reader what they pick from this read, after all “YOU ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE”.

Can we imagine the companionship and neighborhood of this boy? A teenage boy in a stewards group who could have easily trapped in the toxic and diabolical habits, chose to invest all his spirit and endeavors in just to live his dream of having a better life.

He had a choice to blame his fate and weep over given life. He had a choice to get involve in venomous and destructive habits and crib it all about that he didn’t have enough resources to get out of this forced hardships. Well, despite how filmy it sounds but truly this one of the best friends of mine is an epitome of patience, courage and hard work which in turn proved that you always have a choice. He chose to step out of the misery and worked hard enough for self. Earned the designation and position much as same to people who were born with a silver and gold spoon. Isn’t it inspiring? Inspiring enough to at least be thankful for what we have got.

You always have an option to dig out a way to get yourself a better life. Or the least that we can do is to keep our conscience alive and awake enough to see the alternate roads to better life instead of crying over the fate rendered upon us. 

Remember “YOU ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE”

A Parallel Universe

“I should have switched a lane and took a turn round the circle to elude this 5 hours traffucked jam” or “I should have played the black ball to the back pocket in today’s pool game, to win it” or “I should have taken a haircut from that salon instead of this one, for a satisfactory mien.”

If we scrutinize, every now and then we regret on choosing a path over the other, be it about switching a lane, playing a move, choosing a salon or making the crucial intricate life choices.

Okay, imagine, there are three individual clones of you. One is the master spectator, “You” and the other two are your sidekicks named “Left” and “Right”. And there is a parallel universe too. As the names suggests the two sidekicks live in 2 opposite universes. Now for every situation you come across where you have to choose a path, you send two of them into different paths for you. Being a spectator, you get to catch the sights of both the road expeditions, repercussions, experiences and conclusions.

Now what? Do you think we’ll attain a perfect roadmap to our destination? That’s a little dubious moreover debatable. Be it a multiverse and multiple clones of you for multitudinous routes. Each path has its own simplicity, intricacies, hurdles and in all its own experiences. Not any of them will be an ideal path, that you would have taken in real life for a quintessential journey.

This may sound a bit of a trite phrase but it’s true that all that matters is the edification and comprehension you acquire on the tracks. So rueing over a taken path is worthless. Certainly it’s easier said than done but truly its as pointless as ‘Jon Snow being the true heir to the Iron Throne’.

It doesn’t matter how diligent you are about not being in a situation which you vowed not to end up being there again. The forces will align themselves to land you up in the same situation where you are right now. Doesn't matter which circuit you followed, you are gonna perch on the selfsame locus where you are up to the minute.

Thus, relish the decisions and cherish the enlightenments earned as there are no white and black courses or stable secured pattern to walk that slippery lane.

Happy reading!

Wean a little, revel a little,

Get out of that comfort zone.

Who knows if it is good or bad.

But for sure it will teach you something.
