Caged

Trapped inside an invisible cage, looking out in hopeless resignation, wings clipped. Life hasn’t been kind to you. Your dreams and desires cover the floor like leaves blowing in the wind on …

the story of failure

the story of failure

You wake up, you brew coffee.
You finish breakfast.
You get ready, for your day and your work.
You leave for work, with no passion.

All set for work, all day of work,
Amid of social smiles and gestures,
A few are naive, many are polished.
Off from work, and a major part of your day.

You reach home, with trivial energy.
You prepare dinner, you finish dinner.
You want to relax, you log on to PC.
Lonely social beings are WE….

You sleep late, browsing your instagram.
You fall asleep, dreaming your goal.
Not realizing, you can’t reach it,
Without you, thriving for it.

 

the next morning,
you wake up, you brew coffee

—- Lavender S

P.S : Inspired by the quote
‘every morning you have two choices :
continue to sleep with your dreams or wake up and chase them’.

BOOKS BOOKS AND BOOKS …

BOOKS BOOKS AND BOOKS …

The other day while i was searching for an old book in my bookshelf, felt like sharing my “passion” for books and the lovely habit of reading.

I don’t remember exactly since when i fell in love with books and the lovely habit of reading …, but i certainly remember how i developed my fondness towards books, by watching my mom and dad , who are book lovers…

and i still remember how my mom and dad used to encourage me to read more and more books …

BOOKS BOOKS BOOKS …

i fascinate reading books ..
i adore watching books ..
i feel delightful to listening to books  …

i feel their texture …
i cherish their smell …..
i appreciate their sweet little rustling…

i admire watching  fellow readers, when deeply absorbed into their own worlds of books.

walkingandreading
i’m bewitched by the very essence of the pages …

i enjoy the texture of paper…

Holding those amazing things called “books” with your very own hands, feeling yourself complete, and reading them is as splendid as flying in the clouds,

and being engrossed into the world of characters, places and plots is an other arena of experience, which should  just be relished and can’t be explained…

Aisles of libraries and bookshops are like heavens for me..,i have a feeling that i belong there… ,

i love reading, when alone…
i love reading, while in a crowd..
i love reading, in train..
i love reading, on bus..
i love reading, while on plane..
i love reading, while waiting for somebody in a cafe….
i love reading, on a bench in a park…
i love reading, in the garden…

and

i love reading,on a couch or at the window…

whatever the place is the essence of reading can’t be changed.

Frankly speaking, ‘m an addict of the habit of reading, i never threw even a piece of waste paper into the bin without giving it a read.

Overtime, i developed love for all sorts of books, be it a piece of newspaper or a notebook or a telephone directory, would’t make a big difference for me.

I’m recently into ebooks…
at the starting phase, it was little hard to be parting with my favorite paperbacks..,

but,

being available for wide range of books, portability,and ability to save number of books just at your hand’s length, are some of the pro’s of e book readers…

eventually….
falling in love with e books too… 25170-1
but on my list
e books are always after PAPERBACKS …

honered to express my love for books ..

HAPPY READING …📚📖…!

So,these are my words for books ..,

i would love to hear your thoughts about books and the lovely habit of reading, feel free to share your thoughts with me 😀

the story of my second first blog post

the story of my second first blog post

Technically speaking, this would be my 2nd blog post… but literally this is my first blog post as for which, as a starter, i had suffered all the pain and sufferings which would be lawful to be felt while you would be writing for your first blog post…

After too much confusion…. and many more dilemmas…, i finally decided to sit on it … but again the gigantic question came around from nowhere… ABOUT WHAT”

I don’t want my blog to come under a particular niche, so it became even more complicated …

Simply passing the hours and days with pen and paper before my lappy at my writing desk, hasn’t taken me anywhere… moreover i was diverting myself from thinking of it by overwhelming with the confusions of deciding the name of the blog, and the design of the blog…

My loved ones were kept enquiring me, if i had posted my first blog post yet… and encouraging me to write..

Overwhelmed ME,.

thought if i could somehow cross that line of confusion and hesitation by posting a simple hello., i might be able  to continue with my second blog post…

Still it couldn’t do any genie magic for me, i was just standing on the same line, having that huge burden of deciding the topic for the second first blog post on my head…

Merely, drinking too much coffee and fiddling around with my writing implements couldn’t do much of a help…

I suddenly realized that ‘m backing on to take the first step of the beautiful journey of my long lasting dream of becoming a writer for which i need to start somewhere….

Finally, the spark has come around the corner…

Why shouldn’t i write about whatm experiencing right now….

Eventually.., it’s here…. 

Creating your own blog or website has become a piece of cake these days, it would just take a couple of minutes…  but when it comes to writing your 1st blog post, especially,for a beginner like me… it becomes the toughest job on earth,.. there are too many thoughts and ideas pouring out of your right brain… but no words found to simply put down on the paper…. i was literally sleeping on it for almost 4 days after creating my blog… i was simply passing my time with designing my blog …

Deciding on the topic of your first blog post is no more less toiling than  naming your blog…

Then i started googling for inspiring first blog posts and topics on how to write your first blog post…in the process, i came around many wonderful and experienced writers who did an amazing job, which inspired me in a way, the other way i felt like no one to start a blog…

Strangely, i was thrown into a kinda frigid zone, and felt like thrown to the other side of the earth., i thought of almost leaving the very thought of writing itself,

Should i quit here or should i take the toughest ever 1st step towards my dream !!!?? had become the million dollar question for me…

But not writing is certainly not my cup of tea ….

Ultimately, after 3 more long days of self battling…

And the nagging sense of wanting me to become a writer, which is my lifetime dream, drove me to put my pen down and thus decided to follow my dream at last..,

Though my writing is too primitive and silly …. the very thought of, me taking the first brave step towards my world of passion… and thereby entering the wonderful beautiful and amazing world of writing… is giving me the boost  and confidence for continuing my endless beautiful journey

Still bewildered whether to publish this or not… as i know this post might seem too naive and petty…

Remembering what Mark Twain had said about perfection …’m leaving the job of endless editings…
