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 thinking and hopefully fall asleep after I am lost in the train of thought.
While, we are in that train of thought we're talking to ourselves. And that is a factor we all are missing in our lives.
Talking to oneself is an important factor in one's life. We all do that throughout the day about little things as brushing teeth, dressing up, listening to lectures, but we never just talk to our self for the fun of it. I have watched hundreds of movies where the couple breaks up because they drifted apart due to lack of communication. They didn't talk to each other enough and they got divorced. And We live with ourselves and we never care to have a date night with ourselves. We take our self for granted. Even when we do talk, we do it with so little respect as if we were slaves in our own body. We need to give time to ourselves, listen to our own problems. We can be our own best friend. One must try talking to oneself without losing the people he/she is related to because family is all you'll ever have or need. But just a smile thrown your own way would not go in vain. I think its one of the most underrated things in the world.
I think if we just sat and talked to ourselves with respect for about 15 minutes a day, our lives could be better. I try to write poems and all and whatever rubbish I do write I write at night. Before falling asleep because that is the only time that I talk to myself without interruption, without the worry of tomorrow, or the disappointment of yesterday. Its just me, me and the night. I close my eyes and think about the noise the fan makes and I let that thought take me someplace else, someplace I've not seen before, someplace about which I've heard stories about, someplace my own. 
I believe there is beauty in staring at walls, if one cares to find it.

Death Dessert theory.

Hello... Readers( which apparently are not many). I have come up with a new theory. I havent thought of a name yet. Maybe i will just tell you the name at the end after explaining to you what it is. On second thought i have named it... "Death Dessert". Cool huh? Explanation. Well, most things that are rare, are expensive. And most things that are expensive are most valuable to us. So rare things are valuable. And most people save the sweetest bite for the end. In other words, most people like their dessert at the end of the meal. Taking these two points under consideration, think about death. Death is rare. It only occurs once in everyone's life. And it comes at the end. After everything. It is the sweetest bite. The dessert of life. Maybe death isnt a bad thing afterall. Maybe death is a bite of sweet dessert after all the sour battering given to you by your whole life. Maybe death is the eternal goal. Who knows? Maybe the dead people cant come back or maybe they d...

Love

Wikipedia describes love as a range of emotional and mental states from sublime virtues and interpersonal affection to the simplest pleasure. It also describes it as emotional attachment and affection for a person. But i don't think that is all it is. Love can't be just affection for someone or a slight feeling of pleasure. It is something that every art piece in this world is based on so surely, love can't be something this simple. Emotional dependency and attachment is a nice way of putting it but still I feel they haven't captured the gist of it.  We hear stories about love, fairy tales, movies, listen to love songs and yet its quite astonishing that none of us seems to really know what it actually means.  I think I might have figured it out. Love is caring for someone so much so that when they feel the slightest discomfort or a hint of sadness In their life, we start feeling guilty for being happy. If someone you loved was sad or melancholic for whatever reas...

What is GOD?

Hell Readers! See that wasn't a typing error. I didn't mean to write "Hello". I wrote, "Hell". Must that mean that I am going to hell? Does that mean I am one of Satan's minions? That's the issue we're dealing with in today's post. I have this theory of why people believe in "GOD". I find it excruciatingly annoying when people talk to me about some superstitious gibberish. I wonder, in all the years since these so called rituals have been going on, not one, not even a single person had the courage to stand up and ask a simple question, "WHY?". My mother once said, "Respect your elders". Fair enough, but i asked why? The only reason they're older than me is because they were born before me. I had nothing to do with that. THEY had nothing to do with that. Why should I respect my elders? All you have to do to be an "elderly person" is 'not die'. All in all, I had to apologize to my mother...
