To my friend, soulmate and prince Chandler
To my friend, soulmate and prince Chandler Dear Matthew Perry, Life is a whirlwind of highs and lows, of tracing the memories that our existence forged in. It is a ride that plonks us into the most undesirable and unlikely of events that make us into who we are today. To be or not to be the ones we are, we are always left with the question of how happy we are with what we have and what we can be at the blink of the midnight when we lie drawing unfiltered conversations with our thoughts. Those are the nuances that belie our true selves, telling us about our honest and deepest desires, our most darkest and hostile parts. As we grow up, all we want is peace, a set of people whom we can call our own and a life filled with passion and hard work. Life is merrier when you have people who make you laugh and who stand by you by even seeing the worst in you.

The Beauty of Contrast
I cannot fathom the reason why. Why is beauty synchronised with the exterior of a being? The plasticity of existence is its lustred surface that glows with a false sense of pride. We are all fragmented pieces of stars disseminating our light into the world that crashes the very essence of stability in our life. We have to pay a hefty price for living in this world, for every smile we wear we have to sacrifice a moment to enjoy another. Validating your own experiences is an integral part of healing. When you embrace every event of your life and liberate yourself from your past. That’s when the magic starts.

We are 6 months into 2024 and I haven’t achieved all my goals yet.
We are 6 months into 2024 and I haven’t achieved all my goals yet. Let’s be true to ourselves, this is the stance of millions worldwide. We all have made our New Year resolutions and have faltered in our discourse of being consistent and true about it. To be consistent in your stance, you need clarity and focus on what you are headed towards, when the head is lost in aimless directions of what should be, we lose our sight of what we are and where we should be headed. In absolute honesty, I too was directionless in the first 6 months of my existence in 2024. To give you more insight into my journey here is my account of the first half of 2024-

An ode to the contradiction of mortal existence
Their life looks so magnanimous and perfect, oh how unfortunate I am to live in mediocrity! The notion of the ambush of abundance on the opposite end of our perceptive spectrum is the most notable contributor to the experiences of gut-wrenching self-doubt and comparison which in turn leads to insecurity and lower self-esteem. How often have you found yourself in the being of experiencing constant self-deprecating your competence and abilities? Have you seldom found yourself guilty for not believing in yourself, or discounting your worth on the hands of others? If you relate to this, this piece is for you. To err is human and to forgive is divine. There is humanness in finding yourself amidst the brevity of nerve-wracking chaos, you are not unworthy or incompetent because you feel like you are a mess or life is not working out the way you exactly want it to work out.
