I wish

I wish I had the courage to tell her

That I think about her

That I care for her

That I don’t want to lose her

–

I wish I had the intelligence to understand her

To feel her pain

To let her make mistakes but

To let me feel her pain

–

I wish I was closer to her

To protect her

To be by her side

Even when she didn’t want me

–

I wish I could be someone she prefers

Someone she thinks is handsome

And be hot and cool

And everything she adores

–

I wish I could tell her

That I love her

That I just want her soul

That I just want to be there for her.

I love electronic dance music (EDM)

What is your favorite genre of music?

I love EDM because it gives me pleasure and satisfaction.

I know it’s basically for dancing in the club and it’s not for strong emotions like sadness or calmness.

But I like it.

I’m a person who doesn’t like stimulating music. And EDM is not so stimulating as love songs or sad songs.

I love EDM because of the values it’s built on.

Values like-

  • Freedom
  • YOLO (you only live once)
  • Friendship
  • Love
  • Peace

Yeah so basically EDM resonates with me.

Thanks for reading this line. It means a lot.

I got a broken skull at 5

Have you ever broken a bone?

After school hours, I was playing “pakda pakdi” with my friend Sudip and he accidentally pushed me at the door hinges of our classroom.

And I got hurt on the right side of my skull.

The injury marks are still there.

So a little amount of blood flowed I guess.

And I started crying.

I came home with my sister who studied at the same school on the regular school bus.

We informed our mother.

I was taken to the hospital with my mother.

And I remember a lot of people from my school came to the hospital before I got treated.

I mother held me in her arms as the doctor stitched my skull.

And a few weeks later the principal of the school and other teachers visited our home.

I mean they were good people. It was a good school.

The school’s name was “Vivekananda Academy School”.

Well I guess I wanted to share this with you.

Thanks for reading this line.

Is she reading this?

Is she reading my poems?

Is she reading my foolishness?

Is she reading my blogs?

Is she reading my thoughts?

Does she care?

Does she even care about my life?

Does she care about my heart?

Does she have feelings for me?

Do I know her?

Do I really know her?

I guess I wanna know her?

Can I give this feeling a name?

Is she still reading this?

I love luxury brands but I’m simple

What are your favorite brands and why?

I love to go shopping at malls but I always keep in mind that I am not immortal.

I am just a mortal. I am just a human being who feels sad, happy, horny, apathy, peace, angry,etc.

The only thing I can’t do is ignore my feelings.

Sorry if this blog is becoming about feelings more than brands.

You know I feel infatuated all the time. And this breaks my heart.

Yes I’m heartbroken. Because I am a human being and am a “feeler” of emotions.

Thanks for reading this blog.

I can read The Alchemist over and over again

What book could you read over and over again?

Every time I read “The Alchemist” by Paulo Coelho, I feel so inspired and empowered.

I feel that there’s more to life than just surviving.

I feel there’s a dream that I can chase and it will lead me back home.

A sense of hope fills my heart.

And maybe that’s why I started my first business selling t-shirts online at 20 years of age.

I read this book the last time a few years ago and I will re-read it soon.

I’m glad you read this line. Thanks a lot!

Sometimes you need to be realistic

Life is hard and people are not always good.

And life is not always fairy tales and rainbows.

If you don’t study hard for your exams, you will not get a career you wished for.

If you don’t lower your standard of living and not save money, you won’t have any investments or emergency funds.

If you don’t eat healthy, you will get ill.

If you don’t take your medications on time, you will not recover from your mental illness as expected.

Sorry if it’s hard to hear but that’s the truth.

I’m glad you read this line. Thanks a lot!

I’d be a superhero – Shaktiman

If you could be a character from a book or film, who would you be? Why?

So there’s a superhero named “Shaktiman” in India. And he is known for being a force for good.

He has been given powers by God himself.

Shaktiman is a tv show that used to be aired in 2002 I guess.

I was 3 or 4 years old.

I want to be like him because he is a good person in spite of his super human powers.

The powers are like Superman but Superman’s powers are due to his being an alien from Krypton. But Shaktiman is a spiritual yogi who I guess did tapasya or long sadhana and spiritual seeking.

Now I bet you also love Shaktiman.

I’m glad you read this post. Thanks a lot!

I’d write for free

What job would you do for free?

I honestly am very lazy. So I need external motivation like money for doing anything.

But the one thing I would do even if I’m not paid for is writing.

And that writing should be on my terms.

I don’t need a boss for writing for free. I don’t need a salary.

So yes I would write for free but only if it’s not a job.

I’m glad you read this line. Thanks a lot!
