Pieces of life



Have you ever got stuck at some point in your life and thought like “what if this is not me”? What if this is not where I belong? What if this is not my thing? Do I have a passion? Will I ever find it? Is there some point in life where I will be finally doing something that makes me happy?

Well, first of all, passion is overrated. The whole ”find your passion, works hard for it” thing,  it's a fairytale. Some people figure out what they wanna do very early. Some take time, whereas some people spend their whole lives looking for it and finally die living a miserable, tedious life.
It's okay to not have a ”thing”. It's okay to live and die infamous. It's okay to live an ordinary life.
What you have to realize is that a vast part of your life is going to be boring and not so “cool”. And that’s okay too.
But remember this, always try to live in the moment. If you are working, work 100%. If you are chilling, chill 100%. Whatever you do make sure you make it worth your time.

Another thing to note is you can never be eternally happy. The  scene you have in your mind, with beautiful sunset and a cute girl by your side living happily ever after, that kinda thing only happens in movies. The more you look for positivity in your life, the more negative it become. The more sad and desperate you are about you being sad and desperate, the more sad and desperate you become.

 It’s a paradox. So wake up, put on your shoes and seize the fu.. damn day! Sayonara.

Excerpts from my dream journal.

  So when I was making tea the other day, oh wait.  I like tea. I drink an awful lot of tea every day. My mom thinks it's an addiction, and I might die of cancer one day.  Though what I can't tell her is that, if it wasn't for Chai I would've taken my own life a long time ago. Chuckles. So I was making tea and it's nice and warm outside. You know the 4 'O clock light warmness. The sky slowly turning orange-red gradient. Soon it'll be Violet when looked through my bathroom window. It's a cool view, so I sometimes stand there for a while even after I'd done with the peeing. Especially if my neighbor is cooking, the smoke would be all upon the sky, and orange and violet beams gliding through it give a cool view. Where was I? So I was making tea, and all these snippets of memories come back running to me. And the funny thing was that these are memories of events that have never happened, you know. But it felt like events that I'd already experienced,...

The unbearable weight of consciousness.

I’ve always been pretty conscious about myself. I am not sure if that’s a good thing or not. A bit of both, I could say. Being fully aware of myself has always helped me to know what I want in certain situations, with people, etc. I know what sort of person I want to be, in general. I’m 100% certain about the vibe I want to give out to people, and I am sure that for the most part, I’ve succeeded in doing the same. But still, being super conscious most of the time has not helped me figure out what I want to do with life. This has been my life’s biggest dilemma. I used to be ambitious growing up, I guess up until end of the college. Maybe corporate did it, perhaps I did this to myself. I am the most unambitious man I know right now. Does that scare me, I don’t know. I see people around me hustling, switching techs, and companies, climbing up the ladder, making huge life decisions, and moving out of countries. I feel nothing. There is nothing I want to be.  Sometimes I feel like I pea...

All I Ever Wanted Was A Way To Kill The Noise.

 You know how fire extinguishers work? Umm... If I remember my high school textbook correctly. They form this blanket or like a cloud of carbon dioxide around the region of fire,  thus limiting the oxygen supply required for the fire to survive. Okay, your point being? Yeah, so I feel like that. Every now and then, I don't know, is it, God? Is it me? Is it the people around me? Society? My subconscious? I don't know, someone creates this cloud, dark cloud of nothingness around me, and it's sucking the oxygen out of my life. I feel like an ember every morning, just trying to overcome the cloud, survive. And I'm not choking, it's like sucking all the words from inside me, making me more silent every day. Also, I don't want to lose them, so I lay it all down here, in papers, in stickies, whatever piece of paper I can pass my final flickers of fire on to. Sayonara. *** Images: Pinterest
