Friend.



Hey you,
I have to say it,
Quarantine sucks big time.
You've left me under your coffee table.
I think there are 5 other people currently lying above me.
I'm having a hard time breathing.
And I can't sleep. Thanks to all this dust.
Anyways, there are some things I wanted to tell you but never did.
Hey you,
I know I'm not made of flesh and bones, like most of your friends.
But I want you to know that I care for you.
And I know you care about me too.
And I know that you want us to be your little secret.
so you keep me underneath your bed,
corner of the coffee table, wherever you feel I'm safe.
Hey you,
I love it when you smell me.
Your eyes become wider than usual.
I love it when you spread your hands through me, Very carefully.
Like you're going through a baby's hair.
I love the look on your eyes,
right after you'd told me everything about your day.
Hey you,
When it's past midnight and you're suffocated by your thoughts
I'll lay by your side and you can pour them onto me.
Or when you wake up from a bad dream,
I'll hold on to you and you can tell me all about it.
Or there if there comes a time when you have to let someone go,
and you lose all the hope and you feel like you're all alone,
my dear, you can think of me.

Sending you love and care, today and every day.
Your journal.

Dystopian times (unabridged)

I read '1984' by George Orwell a few years back. I could only read up to 70% of it for some reason. In the first chapter, the protagonist secretly writes a journal entry as a sort of protest, or a way of telling his story to future generations. Thankfully, we're not there yet, but I imagine sooner or later, we as a collective world will reach that level of dystopia. I can't help but wonder, 'Has the world always been like this, or I'm just noticing it? ' Maybe yes, but the amount of injustice and horror that has been happening around the world has definitely only increased with time. There is so much injustice, violence, and horror happening around the globe, and the fact that I was born in this godforsaken country. It's awful enough to be a citizen of this country, but being a Muslim in India is only worse. The only thing I can do is be grateful for the fact that I was born in the South.  And all of this leads to one being in a certain dilemma. Do I try...

Who will win the Ballon D'Or 2018?

There are a lot of quality players out on the field with potential of acquiring the so called best player award in the world easily known as the “THE BALLON D’OR”. Since the year 2008 this mesmerising price has been shared among two, who are known to the world as  CRISTIANO RONALDO  and  LIONEL MESSI.  Both of them are so far presented with 5 of the awards equally throughout these years. To be honest no one else other than these two has not even came close into winning the award after 2008. But this year a number of different things have happened. Lots of underdogs have proved their worth and are told to be possible winners of this Glamorous award. As the World Cup is upon us on July, it will play a major role on declaring the Ballon D’Or winner this year. With the help of various experts and from the form they are in, we have reduced a 23 possible nominees list: (not in chromatic order)           1.  Li...

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...
