Pushing Boundaries.


When you are closer to achieving, a far-sighted dream - why does the fear engulf you?
I guess, the fear is a good sign. The thrill, the adrenaline tells us that we are pushing ourselves out of our comfort zone. Once fear strikes, doesn't mean that we stop. Always. It only suggests that we choose wisely. Think deep into the situation before hopping on a decision.

There is nothing in the world you cannot do.
You must dare to achieve what the world thinks you cannot do.
You should push yourself to do the things you think you cannot do.

What are these quotes for, by the way?
As I sit here mongering on the brochures of various colleges and stressing over picking the right one in the right city - I fear. I fear to lose out on my comfortable life, working with one of the best MNCs.Would I be able to do online shopping for the next 2 years? hah! Would I get boost in salary that I expect after my studies? Would I even get a job? What if I lose out on the amazing friends I met here in Delhi? Would I.. what if. and what not.

Should I? Should I leave for the city that has always been in the corner of my mind - Pune? Or should I leave for the one where my friends are - Bangalore? What If I end up in the city where no one I know lives - Hyderabad?

I wish to leave Delhi though. The irritating pollution and the fashion conscious people who think "That" is everything, eh.
Oh, Next year. I fear your arrival for this year was pretty much amazing. But who am I to stop the Time.

That Overused Term.

Ever think of love? What are the chances that a person could fall in love madly and deeply, to the extent that it consumes them? 10 times? Or maybe only once? They say those who do not seek it, those who do not fight for it, might not even find it. They may spend their entire lives, either hung over someone who they loved and lost, or settle for someone they do not even love. Under societal pressures or because of their own loneliness? But people have felt that emotion throughout history. Some find it in separation, which is also known to be the strongest of all the loves that exist. The dire need to look at someone and feel alive. The missing that is so powerful that it overtakes your mind and body. In the times of quarantine, the strings of your own heart can very well be understood. It is all peaceful out and there is a certain deafening silence. It could make you hear your soul, for you have nowhere to escape. Immerse yourself in books and movies as much as you want, but

Revisiting.

When I was young, Oh, when I was young... Everything was so much fun. Had no dreams, had no pun, but oh, it was so much fun. The hugs from mama, learning skates, learning to ride a bicycle and the dance with papa. The fights with di and the games too.. Telling on her to mom and dad, and the midnight stories too.. No cellphone, no wifi, Even the cable was out, Had a playground, had a school, and there was plenty happiness, no doubt There were friends, who brought plenty smiles Them, I still dream of, After the closing of blinds... And now, Oh its still good,, With the new world around.. but the old days, I will always miss their sound.

You can't pass off as 18 anymore, can you?

Woh! I had one hefty weekend with my friend, who I was able to enjoy with after almost three years! Yeah, we met in between the years but it was either for only a few hours or something was upsetting about our life. Well, but this time around we had immense fun. We went out partying, and the next day to the campus where we spent all our time together few years ago, and realized how far we have come. We are two changed individuals, knowing how to carry ourselves in a better way than what we did in college. We can't pass of as 18 anymore, where we had a billion insecurities about ourselves and no clue where our life will go. We never thought much about ourselves and now we have a self-esteem which can't go wrong. Then. (2011) Now. (2017) Do we really look any different? Yet we are! The tattoo talks, the hair color talks and the talks about getting another piercing were not what we talked about "all the time".I was just checking out an article regarding t
