Fly High !

Amidst all the cheering , compliments and applaud for becoming the next Paulo Coelho , Ansel Adams , Richard Avedon  or da Vinci , what we forget is that we have become the next somebody . Somebody which the whole world has known . Somebody who has been appreciated and applauded for their pieces of work . 

We have failed to establish ourselves as a whole and tried all along to be the next somebody . The personalities whose' hats we try to don are themselves the ones who havn't doned anybody else's hat but their own .

What if Pablo Picasso aimed to become the next da Vinci ? What if Jackie Chan aspired to be the next Bruce Lee ? 

Had they done that , the world would have lacked Picasso's unique artistic talent . The world would've been deprived of the geniuses . 

Let Jackie Chan , the versatile actor's words , " I never wanted to be the next Bruce Lee . I just wanted to be the first Jackie Chan " , inspire us and let our individuality shine ... to let our talents flourish and give to the world not the next somebody , but the very first you . 

Each one of us is a kind . Like Picasso and Bruce Lee , " There is magic about you that is all your own ." 



Give wings to your individuality and talents . 

FLY HIGH !

Kindness pays , rudeness never !

A man as great as his words , Mark Twain once remarked ," Kindness is the language which blind can see and the deaf can hear ." The mortal struggle to exist in the diverse society many a times prompts us to take up the path of rudeness and stubbornness . Not only do these qualities hamper our internal growth but do also hamper the affection which might be imparted upon us .  People tend to regard others on the basis of their behaviour and expression . Let alone the personality they carry . The impression once formed in other's minds is often hard to mold and twist towards a new angle .  It is also argumentable that a person might not always be able to carry a lighter and positive , happy air around . Unexpected turn of fateful events often ruins one's mood and brings irritability in his actions . It is often said ," No man is born bad , but circumstances make him bad ." But , except all these minority feelings , what shall always linger into our behaviour be...

Work Of Words

It's a weird place from where I'll be pinning my thoughts down into words, today. Less regarded of the environment which has consumed me, I'm more strong-centered about doing what I love. Write. They say , "the best of things hit you hard on the back of your head", meaning that what's best for you will come your way when you have contributed your best efforts and least expect the rewards. Somewhat familiar incident took place when I once read in The Tribune's article about how many a bunch had persued the idea of writing blogs . Initially the idea of words didn't impress me. And to be honest I can't even recall the moment I fell in love with writing. It's been a beautiful journey since and there was no looking back from the day I first, nervously, penned down my first blog post. Those moments are vividly impressed in my mind just like they happened yesterday. Writing not only blessed me with an improved level of vocabulary but also a better a...

Happiness

"They kept on comparing ; kept on creating the differences ; kept on telling us what we couldn't do .But I still was happy because I loved the way I was ." Happiness is a beautiful feeling . Happiness is when a child gets to have his favourite ice-cream . Happiness is when a father watches his little daughter walk her first steps . Happiness is when kids go outdoors to play with their friends . When you know who you are , and what you are capable of ; when you know your weaknesses , your flaws and imperfections and still don't complain ; when you know how to convert your weaknesses into your strengths ; when you treat both disaster and triumph in the same manner ; when you smile admist all problems , you are happy ! Your happiness is the outcome of your own beliefs , your own attitude . It should not depend on what others think or say about you . Your thoughts define your character and they should not reply on people's merci . People don't care about what you ...

What do you mean?

All our lives we keep living up-to the expectations of others. Making amendments where they are barely needed just because someone prompted us to. Complying with the human nature, the point of view that average humans need a little push (motivation) ,to do well or to excel above average, does hold some ground. But how much is this push? Many a times the push goes a little too far. Depending on the diverse human nature not all are strong headed to be able to rubbish off the useless opinions. No matter how unwanted opinions might be, few people always have some of these up their sleeves and they don't feel slightest of shame in throwing shades over at others...forever ready to point out areas of their life which remain uncoloured and empty. Although most of the times the so-said is rubbished away,  but a part of it always sticks at the back of our minds. Doing away with such thoughts, it isn't the same when we inspect the area that was being held the subject of critique. All we ...
