Not so Christmasy

You know, festivals were the reason for excitement when we were kids..Now its like the simple holiday.. Earlier they were so much fun..IT used to be a freaking holiday after all... All the Indian festives and even Christmas. I remember me and my sister on the 25th of December used to make cards with the drawing of Santa Claus and Christmas trees.. She was always better in art than me...which apparently led to my disinterest in the field because i always wanted to be perfect..wanted to "win"...buh! but my sketching sucked. After decorating cards were prepared, i always got into a fight with her due to my hidden "jealousy" as my own cards were not that beautiful... Yaa...there was another reason why i hated my sister on Christmas...She was the one who told me that there is no Santa Claus when i was just 5.. Why? Was she not able to see me happy when i found gifts near my pillow believing it was that favorite red uncle who gifted them?? >_<  But our parents used to calm us down..and then we used to watch the Christmas movie on some channel..together under one blanket ..we four of us...me, my sis, mum , dad.... Ah, i miss it..!

With time ...its like...we have so much "real" or err "practical" thoughts in our mind..that the idea of watching a movie with the whole family is not exciting enough..."They dint wish me" ...or "We aint going out to party"..are the complaints... We have some more miseries like...recently, he or she just passed away...this or that needs to be done right now...Such tensions engross our minds...
Christmas is still a festival but the loss of excitement is what am upset about.. Life without excitement gets us nothing...And even losing it on such merry occassions is the worst thing that can happen.. even if we enjoy, the troubles back in our mind is what grown ups suffer from... and i know... Thats Life! and we can do nothing about it.....

In the Lies

There are a thousand ways we imagine things could conspire to be. Yet when the outcome turns to be the one we didn't want, we begin to break down.  We begin to hate the chances taken. We begin to hate the efforts that we put in. We regret.  Sometimes, it is difficult to say that the fate of our lives is in our hands. That we are the master of our world. Maybe we are not, because we try to do our bests yet we can't achieve. What is the purpose then? We ask ourselves, our friends, maybe the higher power. If things aren't meant to roll out the way we expect, what is the point of working on them?  However, there is a way we manage to survive. It's in the lies that we tell others, maybe ourselves too. The truth about lies is, if we say them enough, we start to believe them  ---  "Does it still hurt?" "No"      And unless someone looks into our eyes, we begin to realize all the lies that we have been telling ourselves and once again shred into pieces. F...

Are they People or Snakes?

We have figured it out wrong. Bustling on the roads, sipping our coffees, Smoking cigarettes, partying on weekends, Spending our money on things that don't matter, Like the new shoes, or Maybe the new Dress, The pretty girl with a fake accent is Busy, busy being anxious about her fashion choices, because well, she got it all figured wrong. Yet, she thinks she knows it all, while hidden insecurities, she believes her fake personality is top-notch. So many people in meaningless gibberish Wishing to stay updated with the world facts, to become so opinionated that they can interact about everything that exists, But what are these opinions for by-the-way, If the people you talk to, don't wish to talk to you anyway? And then, come those who wish to align with the world Fight for their society, or the well-being, Such that they are willing to take laws into their own hands, Use their provoking skills to thrash someone in a  mob, who did maybe a wrong. This ...

Being a Slave to AI?

 Last night I was binge watching Netflix, because I have my accounting exam. Who wants to study that, eh? In the middle of the two idiotic rom-coms, I also saw a documentary "The Social Dilemma".   When you find it on your Netflix feed, by the name itself you shall think, "Oh! It is going to tell us how internet is scary and etc etc.," and you'll continue to scroll the feed to watch something else. Why? Because YOU cannot face the truth, that the SOCIAL PLATFORMS where you want to spend so much time on, are actually owning you? Artificial Intelligence, isn't just about the robots killing people in the future. It is in the NOW. It is running your lives. The people who themselves were a part of the platforms, like Tristan Harris - share the scary impact that social media has on the people around you. For example, take the rumors spread on Corona Virus? You think those people were not manipulated on believing that? No one is that stupid. It's the AI that ma...
