Violet enough?

Where do you draw the line? How do you know that your ‘this is it’ moment has arrived? When all is said and done there are resonances in your mind waiting to be unleashed, how do you channelize them or how you keep them buried inside your head?

For long you wait for something to happen and when it finally does why don’t you run and embrace it? Why you just hold back and hope it should have never happened in the first place?

Do good guys always lose? Do trophies go to winners only! Have you ever tested someone only to see if they will pass with flying colors? Have you competed someone by being on their side? Have you ever trashed someone because you want to hear back that they won’t go?

For something that is bound to be factual isn’t it amazing how much excuses reality is made of?  Why, why not, ifs, buts, coulds and shoulds all have no values when that moment arrives. You don’t think nor seek advice, you simply jump off the cliff. If you are lucky to reach the ground safely, great, else you already know that its indigo, indigoing, indigone!

Adieu, Aaich!

Harry meets 'H'

It was long overdue. Quite a while when Harry last met with ‘H’. A lot of water had passed under the bridge. Harry was a changed man and ‘H’ was happy at taking the back seat. After all for 26 years ‘H’ waited for Harry to take on the baton to the next stage in the evolution.


They shared the routine sentiments of meeting after a long time. Harry was nervous and embarrassed as if he has done something wrong while ‘H’ still had the ultimate charming smile, plus, not for a moment did he pass a rude remark to make Harry uncomfortable.

Harry: I missed you a lot, ‘H’ (Harry is teary eyed)
‘H’: Awww (‘H’ trying to mellow down the emotions)


So wats up? Harry inquires!
Nothing much, the usual ‘H’ response.


Wat have you been upto? (‘H’ inquires)
Harry: A lot of stuff actually. New workplace, new college and a lot of new things.

Great! You like continuous change, replies ‘H’.
Um, yeah but not now! I think I need to slow down. This is not I thought of. (Harry is getting senti)


‘H’: so wat did you think of?
Harry: I don’t know.


‘H’: but still?
Harry: Can you come back and take the lead?


H: Why? This change is something that you wanted really badly.
Harry: Yeah, but I don’t think I need it now.


H: Wat you don’t require?
Harry: I am clueless. I don’t know


H: Have you heard this? I've slowed down and taken a backseat and I'm watching other people's lives zoom pass while I stand motionless in time. It's pretty amazing when you view the world from a different angle. Not everything is good in life, but not everything is bad either. I've learnt that I cannot change the world, and the world will not change for me. (‘H’ shares a quote)


Harry: Your luv for these is still there :)
H: Yeah! :)


H: Why don’t you apply this quote to yourself? You just need to change the perspective.
Harry: What should I do? In a conflict within self who wins, H?


H: See that the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love you, well, that's just fabulous. Naah?


Harry: Yeah you are right!
H: Let it go! Be who you really want to be! Stop sweating on the small stuff.

Harry: Can the thing between the two get back to what it was?
H: For me it never changed. It’s still the same :)


Harry: Can I say something? And you know this, right?!
H: Wat?
Harry: That I…….
H: Yeah! You don’t need to say it.


Harry: Thanks for everything!
H: You don’t have to.


Harry: I will catch you later then?
H: Sure thing!

*Hugs* and both depart!

Retrospect!

There comes a time when you have to reflect,

when you've to think of all that seemed right,

and all that went wrong

The bets you made,

the battles you fought,

the friends you had,

and the ones you lost

Life comes with a silver spoon,

but it takes with a broken hand

It shows you a direction,

but the path is yours to take.

Lets see where are you heading my friend!

You!

This post is for you!

You belong to the fraternity that is not meant to be strong but in what context people have this observation is beyond me.

Your beaming face and a splendid aura is the first thing that grabs the attention. Others may wonder that there may be nothing fancy about it. A lot of people have this craft and what is this thing to write about? Put into the equation the numerous leg pullers that you fight daily and a norm that you bout against every minute and the significance of this sight multiplies exponentially.

Fun loving, young, exuberant are understatements when it comes to you. Amidst all the adversities you know how to keep the balance. Workplace, home or institute every place gives you ample reasons to be more strong, resilient and spirited.

Your survival mechanism of not only handling crisis but little disasters of everyday life is truly extraordinary. You do break down occasionally but who would not? I am convinced that you will never fit in because you are born to stand out!

Your life's good. Don't sadden yourself by what you won't have later, celebrate what you have now. Your present is too precious to be tainted by regrets of past or stresses of future. Live like there is no tomorrow, love like you've never been hurt. As for the past, obviously you couldn't have worked any harder, given it more, loved more, cared more, spent more hours I don't know the list goes on. Looking back you might feel like you put your heart out too quickly... blame it on the season... it was after all a spring of hope and only a fool wouldn't fall in love.

Sometimes when you don't know where you're headed, is it not ok to just follow your heart?? It takes courage to be happy... be brave for yourself. Don't try to figure things out, there is no right way or wrong way. Hope springs and miracles do happen and I can promise that your life will soon change for the better that even you wont believe it.

With the powers vested upon me by myself, I hereby declare that you are not a person, you are a phenomenon!

Respect, Aaich.
