Let’s Give Chance a Chance
How will you ever know what could have been if we never gave it a chance? We can imagine all we want but never really know for sure. There will always be a teeny tiny possibility of the opposite kind. Yes, imagination is a good thing to have. Indeed, great. But give it a rest [...]
What You Deserve
So many times in life, we have people telling us what we should do and get. Just as many times, we let them tell us so. We even take to heart their opinion. Some of us go the extra mile and follow the advice too. If people think we are good, we keep at it. [...]
Those Last Few Hours Before Another Birthday
How do you feel just a few hours before you turn another year old? For kids, it is excitement. For teens, anticipation. For those who have seen quite a few of these, it stops mattering altogether (or so they say). But for some, especially those in the bracket of twenty-five to thirty, it's a bit [...]
Unexpected
When you think you are lost And someone comes seeking you, When you think all is lost And someone helps you win, When you least expect it And someone stands by you... That is when you feel The power of the unexpected. That is when you see An angel's face. That is when you taste [...]

To They Who Say We Are Not Enough
We try, they dissuade us. We try harder, they say we are just being silly. We give it our all, they say we should stop wasting our time because we are simply "not good enough." My question is that should we even try to explain to these "experts" how wrong they are or not. As [...]
Compliment or Not
"Am I supposed to take it as a compliment? Or not?" Sometimes said aloud, sometimes thought silently, the above line resonates with most of us. At times, people say such smartly-phrased things that we don't really know what to make of them. If they were positive or negative remains unclear. Worse still, there are times [...]
Sick at Heart
For the world, you appear like a perennially sick person -- someone always suffering from one or the other disease. But only you know where the real problem lies. It is not in that knee that doesn't stop giving you trouble or that unsettling cough or the floaters in your eyes or your a little [...]
