Random Thoughts

 is the last letter in the alphabet. The one that states the conclusion. At the end of my first ever challenge of blogging the conclusion has been pretty good. While I embarked on the journey to learn and explore; it also made me realize how vast the universe of thoughts is. With every letter I wrote, I grew with my expression, my enthusiasm, and a sense of achievement. While every day pushed me to think more and observe around, it also taught me the following: Express honestly Appreciate abundantly Believe endlessly Work continuously Read ferociously I started as a novice, with a fear of being mediocre. I had my doubts and umpteen number of questions. Though I still believe that I have a huge task of exploration ahead, but I can confidently say my belief in myself has become stronger. I still fear, but I am not afraid to take the risk. I have grown as a writer and that what matters the most to me. This has been an experience that has give...

With each passing day, I picked up a new thing. With each passing blog I discovered new strengths. With each set of problems, I discovered an innovative solution With each opinion and view, I found my space. The tears, toil, and exhaustion all were rewarded,  It was amazing while it lasted. So the challenge is roughly over and I am on ‘W’, concerned about the other alphabets that follow. Thoughts jumbling up, unable to type, and yet delighted to be going on. I am happy that I challenged myself. I always assumed it was a momentous task to accomplish. I always ran away from it and now as it is ending, it seems like a long vacation with a friend is coming to an end.  I forced myself off my comfort zone each day aiming to do better. The impulse to write kept me up at night. I fought many personal battles to do it. But the confidence it has brought is immeasurable  With each blog, I found a fresh way to express myself....

On with it So, I have started writing blogs again. To challenge myself I have taken part in the #AtoZchallenge. It was a skeptical decision for me and the one I was avoiding to take for a very long time. But; alas I jumped on the wagon; to test myself and to learn and adapt. I have been somewhat on time. I started again with the intent to explore the idea of expressing through my blogs. To be frank I have not been able to have as many readers as I hoped to get. I have posted at every platform as I know of; I have been interacting and doing as much as I can to nurture this baby of mine, but it seems all in vain. I do appreciate wholeheartedly; all those people who genuinely take time out of their life and read my blog. But; being a human being; the tendency to have more, to instantly succeed gets the best of me. I thought of not going ahead with it, complained to myself, scolding myself for not being enough and overall belittled myself. Now it was fun while the scold...

Just Like that I was happy, elated in my bubble when I met him. A tall, handsome and charming person. One of the rare ones with a smile, kind heart, sense of humor and modesty. It was my first day in college when he passed by. Never knew what ‘weak in knees’ meant; until that moment. It must be what love at first sight meant. Wow; this encounter was helping me understand my bookish knowledge in true sense. I was lost all day; amused at myself. I was giggling like a small kid, with spring in my feet. Then I learned the meaning of my heart skipped a beat…..when he came to me and said ‘Hi’ and I ran without saying a word. In my entire life, I have never encountered a voice as mesmerizing as his. I knew I was in trouble and a deep one. When I went home I locked myself up…talking and shouting at myself for being a fool. I was disappointed in the way I behaved today. Blaming idiot movies for making me so dramatic; I looked in the mirror. I knew I will have these feel...

Fresh Point of View In the world flooded with thoughts, ideas, beliefs, morals, and understanding. Seeing is not always what we perceive. As perception is an amalgamation of one’s thoughts, upbringing, society, education, etc. When two people look at a thing they infer it differently which creates conflict in communication and hence results in misunderstandings. A Point of view is the way we understand our surroundings, the way we judge it and the way we create our own moral restrictions and barriers. But. To truly have a broader understanding we need to adopt a fresh point of view; which is easier said than done. Over the period of time, I have learned certain ways; which have helped me widen my perspective. So, today as I blog; I put forth the certain way in which you can create a better understanding of the world and can reduce the conflict to co-exist in harmony        Read :  Books open up a whole new view of the world. This not only fam...
