Giving up: good or bad?

giving up isn’t for losers. we believe that surrending to circumstances is a sign of weakness but it’s not. in life it’s not always about conquering difficulties, embracing challenges and emerging victorious. beyond all this is a world built on the foundation of emotions, tying us together with an invisible rope of love, friendship and…

The fault in our concepts

It’s high time we revise our concepts of honour, a rapist is a rapist irrespective of the consequences, environment, opportunities, clothes(that provoked him?) and what not. Women in our society need to stop defending their sons and brother for all mishaps, they need to stop blaming girls for the way they dress and how seductive…

Flawed genes.

you were born out of your mother’s body, your smile resembles with your father, you carry similarities of your parents, so, the moment you call yourself ugly, you are not talking about yourself, you labeled your parents ugly, you blamed their genes for being flawed, you decided the fate of children yet to come, you…

the era of revolution

im no artist, these words are not poetry they utter out in pain and consequences for some it’s healing for some, hell when you observe even the slightest change and ignore the most evident one when priorities change out of frustration and hopelessness yet you see a ray of light in the form of human…

Not always a victim.

maybe, it’s not just about them. maybe we have a limited perspective too. we want people to see us beyond our faces and bodies but simultaneously, we mock them for being flawed. we want people to meet our souls when we can only see the flaws they have. we cover our scars, hide them, trying…

We-humans.

there’s more to our life than we’ve ever imagined and same goes for the other person, our life doesn’t end in an institute with our colleagues but we’ve a few people behind us too. our differences, fights, arguments end at a particular time with a particular person and both of you go back to your…

Women for women.

Why do we neglect that women often talk about empowerment but in reality they are the ones dragging the other woman down? When it comes to a guy, they make all the possible efforts to vandalise the other woman? How girls often point out the flaws of their friends, making them aware of their imperfections?…

You are not always the victim!

It’s very easy to write, sach mey. To motivate others, to help them out, make them feel better about themselves but when it comes to you, you just don’t know how to implement all those preachings in your life, you’ve been giving those lessons all your life but how do you practice it yourself now?…

Some things remain unchanged.

At times you feel so helpless and there’s nothing you can do about it, with everything going on, people dying, children being abused, poverty rising, literacy rate going low, you see the poor child with passion in her eyes. This does not happen out of someone’s desire, it’s the circumstances that makes a human kill…

Stereotypes in Society (3/3)

The pimples And scars Bruises and a little weight Make you perfect, incompletely When you look inside yourself And let the ecstasy penetrate You live as a warrior Destined to succeed. It’s good to groom yourself, to make your appearance look better but you should only do it for yourself. I’ve seen mothers coercing their…

Stereotypes in Society (2/3)

I refuse to enslave myself To the conservative rituals Becoming merely a principal To breath independently And become an inhabitant. I refuse to accept And consider myself inferior, Under any circumstances For my existence is no burden To the fellows accompanying me. I refuse to pay The price of my transference Accepting love as a…
