A wave of sadness 🌊
You know those days, when you want to call someone and say something but you don’t know who to call and what to say. I hate those 😡 😔 We like to believe that we’ve grown up and all the life’s shit is sorted but then you have one of those days. And if you […]

Some more time to heal
I dreamt of growing old togetherAnd together we’d turn greyBut with every passing dayYour memory fades away. I felt darkness was there foreverThere forever from dusk to dawnWe stood still, while you were goneWhen life became a game of pawns. I find it hard to recall, hard to rememberTo remember, what life once was aboutI […]

Scenes from the Café ☕🍰
A quaint little café in a busy, busy market of Delhi. And here I was sitting idle, going tap tap tap on my laptop 🧑💻 observing people as they carry on with their lives. I eavesdrop on them, because well, that’s the kind of person who I am who easily gets distracted by background chatter. […]

Pain and painkillers. And how many painkillers can you safely take?
So I wanted to ask, how much of painkillers can you safely take. There are two things – one why am I in constant mild pain and two – is it ok to take an over the counter painkiller? Coming to the first one, I am constantly surprised by the pains in my body. Something […]

Pre mid life crisis and trip to the Salon!
Is there anything called a pre-midlife crisis? I already have been through a quarter-life crisis when I turned 25 and I’m nowhere near turning 50. So this has to be a pre-midlife crisis.Maybe I’m being overdramatic. I’ll tell you how I reached here. I just had a “hair treatment” done. I am also thinking of […]

To write or not to write. And what to write 📝📃✏️✒️🖋️
I think I think, but nothing comes to mind. It feels like I’ve lost it. Have I truly lost the ability to write? Why nothing seems to fit. I stare at the blank space, Hoping to create something. It scares me back with an empty gaze, And I can come up with nothing. I have […]

The Last Breath
The sun shone like it had never before. There was something about the wind that seemed to heave a sigh. There was a frenzy all around, birds flying through the sky, dogs barking and yet the warm breeze carried an eerie silence. I tried to look up to the sky but it was too bright […]

Boredom, Depression, Stress and Meditation – A Tuesday royally wasted
What a weird day. I took a comp off today (a comp off is basically you taking a leave after working on a holiday). And I really thought it’d go better. But it didn’t. I realised, once again, and in vain, that I’m stressed about my work. And also I get depressed when I’m bored. […]

What drives someone to end their life.
Why would someone take such a harsh step? It bothered me for a while and I thought I’ll get some good opinions here. And who knows maybe somebody will read this and get some perspective. I had a dream. More like a nightmare actually where I fell from the top of a building. Kind of […]

Anxiety of a hectic weekend 😬😖
Anyone here who is bothered by the things associated with celebrating festivals? Anyone! Please! I’ll take anything. I am so bothered by these annoying little things that come with any festive event (except for Christmas, because that is totally discretionary for me to celebrate). So, I have a four day weekend starting tomorrow on account […]
