Sometimes, all that you need is that one person who doesn't need your words. One who can acknowledge your ordinary struggles without judgement and boost your confidence on days, being your own cheerleader feels difficult. 

If there has been one thing that has turned difficult by the year is that child-like courage to easily ask for somebody to just listen up. You suddenly turn too old to crib and complain and disturb their schedules. It's probably easier to be there for others and encourage them than to hold your own tears as you get struck. 

Your calendar simply does not seem to have the time for your crying sessions sometimes (which, on second thoughts, is infact a great privelege). You try to put up a brave front but on the inside you are scared as shit and just racing against time each second. Your patience and strength can somehow betray when it comes to your own self.

Sometimes, you don't need an ear to listen but a mind that can read between the lines. Yet you have no time to sit down for the conversations or you may miss out on even more time. Then, you just tell yourself to smile and keep trying since that's all you got to do. 

On days, you weirdly wish, sharing wasn't a requirement but rather telepathy was a real art. It's interesting, how we someday grow up to have these giant egos to open up. But, thankfully, being blessed with the gift to write, you can at least say that to paper which is difficult for your mind and mouth to elaborate. 

PS - 
Even on the day I am stressed about a writing assignment, I guess I am still just writing. Haha no way you can take writing out of a writer. Sometimes reaching out is too taxing, writing remains easier. #Anne_Adler_Fandom for a reason. 💟

Within moments of writing, you suddenly feel fine with a better perspective. On a calmer note, all our problems turn just as giant as we make them in our heads.

A letter to my happy tear

Sometimes we make things so much bigger in our hearts that it becomes impossible for the events to match our anticipation and even the slightest misdirections to our plans end up grounding them altogether. Exactly an year ago, on October 17, my father-in-law called me and told us that our wedding dates had been fixed. It had been a long-distance courtship but as the luck would have it, we were right there together to celebrate the good news. The next four months were probably the happiest period of my life. Even as I felt lonely without him, I would simply count down our days to the wedding. Soon enough, my joy and excitement became too visible. I don't think I have ever taken care of myself any better. I couldn't wait to get married.  I don't think there was a day I didn't think of him before I ended my day. I simply couldn't wait to be his wife. To his credit, it has all been worth it. Even as we are yet to find our way to a shared roof, Akhil you ...

Inside Gachon University Festival: My Experience as an Exchange Student in South Korea

Gachon University Festival in South Korea is a popular campus event featuring K-pop performances, student activities, and cultural celebrations. Originally experienced in September 2017, Gachon Festival was one of my most memorable experiences during my student exchange programme in South Korea. When people think of South Korea, they often imagine K-pop, K-dramas, street food and bustling cities. I too got a glimpse of that culture and celebration at the Gachon University Festival. It wasn't just about music and performances; it was about seeing thousands of students come together to celebrate, make memories and enjoy a brief break from their demanding academic schedules. I had attended college festivals back home in India, yet I was curious to see how a Korean university festival would compare. What Is the Gachon University Festival? Like many universities in South Korea, Gachon University organises an annual festival where students showcase their talents through music, dance, per...

Remember your champions...

Akhil you know I can't go a long time without writing you love letter but am too lazy to visit a post office..so this one is for you... Everytime I am told I am stupid for choosing my passion, I just wanna look at you, remind myself and know we got this and will always find a way... Every time I feel alone or down, seek validation or feel the need to prove myself or my worth...I may take my time but ultimately every ride has taught me how I have my biggest champion at home. Chahe uss din wo kitchen mein bitaye 12 ghante hon ya hours spent on the most basic blog...even if noone else could see, you were the one cheering me on. Even if you were the one taking care of it all, you always ensured I knew we were a team.  At a time, when I almost felt invisible, u were the one who reminded me I mattered. Listened to my rants and then scolded me when u could not see me stay sad anymore. Even if a part of me was torn, you made sure I finally had fun at a wedding.  When I fel...
