A smile my own way.

Greetings! Readers. Oh! That guy is talking to himself on the subway. Steer clear of him, he obviously looks insane and he probably is....Or is he? Everyone has heard the clichéd conversations about how we don't have time anymore. We all know, its true we don't, but nobody does anything to rectify that. I mean sure, after a hectic day at work, we've got families to take care of, homework to complete, assignments to write. But even when we're not doing anything, we find something to do... for instance facebook, Instagram or youtube etcetera. As I do, when I'm free I use Instagram, or youtube or find movies to watch; and sometimes when I can't fall asleep I watch Top Gear(The Clarkson/Hammond/May one) not because its a boring show or anything but because I have watched all the episodes a great many number of times and hence they provide a sense of familiarity and comfort and I drift off to sleep. The alternate option is that I just lie down and start think

Writing! How easy it all seems.

"Either Do something worth writing or Write something worth Reading", they say. Hello Readers! I was just thinking about how people write, and it just came to my knowledge that about half the students of my class write, you know poems and songs and such.

There's a simple answer to the aforementioned question, "You can immediately recognize a good piece of art if it messes with your head." If something you read, messes with you normal mental stability, I mean, if something grabs on and doesn't let go for about at least a week, and then you are tempted to read it again, and when you do it, it climbs on again that is

Determination.

"Its a shield, if you like, a sword if you want it to be and emptiness if you don't recognize it." Hello Readers. DETERMINATION Its such an overrated, overused word and often misinterpreted as "hippy talk". The word "Determination" is what every English speaking person knows the meaning of and yet doesn't actually know the application of it. I know that in some or any sort of minimalist crisis, its the last thing i think of; But what we all fail to understand, is that determination is one of the greatest human emotions ever. Its not an emotion as such, but the inner drive and motivation all these words essentially describe determination. It was determination that helped Adolf Hitler commit the greatest genocide in the history of the world. It was Determination that helped Oskar Schindler save hundreds of lives. It was determination that the Manhattan Project resulted in a weapon destructive enough to destroy the entire planet in one go.It was
