The First Thought Talks

Somewhere between the fights for our dreams to be the reality, we are letting other people take over it. Aren’t we all waiting for that “In the end, it all worked out” moment?? You and I, we all have certain things that we want from our lives, or maybe need for which we have given all our time, our thoughts, but how hard are we holding on to it is the question? Maybe unless we have failed once or twice? The number of “NO” from others? Lack of support? What is it actually? We need to understand one thing, nothing worth having comes easy. If it would be that easy, wouldn’t it come to us with just a try or two? But you see, wanting something different from others, wanting something that is right for you and fighting for it adds on to the spice of life. Isn’t it? You might have fallen a several times, maybe hurt yourself in the process.  Wouldn’t it be easier if we knew, each time that we fell, it only got us stronger? Every small step that you had taken hav...

There is this one question that everyone has been asked especially once you step into the college life- What are your plans next? The only answer we end up giving is 'Abhi tho time hai, we shall figure it out later' (we still have time).

Fortunately, I'm one among those people who had no idea about what I have to do next. Because with each step, I learned a lot.  Usually, at the end of PU days, everyone keeps telling choose your field wisely, plan up for your career and blah bla...

Remember the times we wanted to be a grown-up? Now that we are, all we wish to be is a child again. What do you think changed our mindset? The responsibilities that we have as a grown up or the mess that we make our lives to be? Well, it's the concept of "Happiness". Let us all think of a kid, a kid you're close to. Have you ever questioned them what makes them happy?  The only reply they will give is playing with the toys and the colors. Now try asking them what is it that makes them sad. When I asked this to my niece, her only reply was I get sad when my Mumma doesn't let me watch YouTube. Curious enough, I asked her "what is it that you do to make yourself happy again?" With all her innocence she said, "I play with myself".  It was a very simple answer but give it a thought, it is deep. She didn't let other things bother her, spending time with herself would bring back happiness to her. What do we do as grown-...
