The Cursor

By -

The cursor was blinking on the mobile screen. In the computer era, Cursor is the starting point of emotions. Everything starts with that cursor in the writing box and ends on it. Be it corporate deals, promises, divorces or even small fights on petty issues, everything starts and ends on cursors.
That cursor was blinking endlessly, waiting for some words. But, to its disgrace, no words came out, it kept on blinking uselessly.  Days passed, moths went by, years rolled and the cursor kept blinking,  but without any words coming out of it. At times, some words appeared, some emoticons showed up, but just for a second as they were erased by the backspaced button. The cursor kept on longing for pairing up with the 'Send'  button.

The cursor is blinking even today, selflessly, endlessly waiting for words to come out of it. But, as all other days pass, this day shall also pass, wordless, for when relations die, deals come to an end, fights become wars, the cursor has this painful fate of blinking alone, without words...and in itself it sings it's own saga...the cursor's blinking saga. |

Adversity spawns Greatness

By Anonymous -
Thanks to the affluent society that exists today, our generation of kids are running behind inadvertant things on internet. We care more about our fb posts, whatsapp statuses, insta stories than about big real life issues. Thats leads to us being very dissatisfied with what we have. I came across an interesting piece of literature today. Its called Missing Tile Syndrome. All humans have a tendency to look at what we dont have. Maybe evolutionarily speaking, it is important to look at what we are missing from our life. But in today's world where almost al of our basic neccesities are fulfilled,we tend to find more of those missing tiles. And maybe thats why we dont live to the greatness we aspire to be. Because our generation knows no adversity. All we know is finding those missing tiles so much that we get the missing tiles syndrome. People who really have missing tiles in their lives have thus, a greater shot at achieving greatness than us. Think of kids with homologous Sickle c...

The Commitments

By -
There's this thing about Commitments.  They are known as commitments because they dont have any expiry date. What bothers me most is lack of people's courage to commit to something. Its something like  a give or take thing. You commit to something, you deserve a commitment in back. But its not always the perfect choice. Commiting to something is completely the individual choice, but what keeps me intriguing is: If someone is Commiting you something, do we have the moral responsibility to commit the same thing back? Or was it just his own choice to commit and that shouldn't mean any compelling behavior on the receiving party? This may sound insane or completely nonsense but thats what our life is all about...Give or take.

The Umbrella of Happiness

By -
We are not constantly under this hypothetical umbrella. At times, there are things which throw the whole world under this umbrella like this New Year while at other some things throw us out of the umbrella. The point is: We can never stay under this umbrella constantly.  We have to get out of it in order to enjoy our stay under it more. Sometime, We have to move out and get drenched in the sorrow pouring out of the umbrella and sometimes, life throws you out forcefully. What we need to realize that we arent going to be kept drenched out all the time. We will get under the umbrella someday. Today its their day, who knows tomorrow will be yours. Keep hoping and keep on striving to get under the umbrella. Adieu.
