The ups and downs are normal, as they say.

Sometimes, you wanna cry and stay low
And that's all you wanna be

It hurts so much when you see the incapability in another person to be able to understand what you do

Life
and none of us come out of it alive

Seeing it all through someone else's eyes!

"She needed to talk, she needed to cry, she needed to vent all her frustrations and disappointments."

"Seeming and being are not one and the same."

"We're so arrogant, aren't we? So afraid of age, we do everything we can to prevent it. We don't realize what a privilege it is to grow old with someone. Someone who doesn't drive you to commit murder or doesn't humiliate you beyond repair."

"Not all of me wakes up at the same time."

"It take a lot of courage to show your dreams to someone else."

We're always defying age, but the feeling to know that you'd grow old together with someone you love
That's what one's looking for

When you're excited about your birthday, only to realize you'd be having a lifetime experience,
to not care about it really
When it just gets difficult for you to snap out of things,
not because you can't seem to get your mind off it, but because it's already left a deeper impact on you than you thought it would!

When all you could possibly wish for, is for the other person to understand. Not listen but understand.
Too much to ask for?

With people like Arvind Kejriwal, this world will be a better place :)

Because the opposite of love is apathy, not hate. When you're not completely indifferent as yet, and there's hate. An emotion that exists, it's amusing how you'd never thought you could manage to build that amount of hatred in your heart for someone, who's not even capable of empathy.

It's the power of words and will probably always be
What one said and how you perceived it

Absolutely love the words and the video! Extraordinary.
~ Using one's negativity towards you, to motivate you and keep going in life to make yourself better!

Exams - why are they used to define so much that never matters in the long run?

I love seeing old couples together! Adds to my day :)

Accounts - a subject that you've never liked, plus you've never been good at it, so you're all the more not motivated to make the effort!

How does one always manage to overlook the big picture?

Why get used to something for a short while when you know you can't have it for long?

  1. Such a cool line - "...life and none of us come out it alive!" True that!!

    Oh yes, old couples are the cutest, especially when they hold each other’s hands and not just coz they want to give physical support but also coz they are still in love with each other and care about each other.

    That is so true, when you hate someone, you still have invested your interest/energy/time in the person you hate, apathy is i guess the correct opposite of love! Nice one!

    Why get used to something for a short while when you know you can't have it for long? - hmmm can you elaborate more?


    "Age is no guarantee of maturity.” - Very true! I guess with maturity some people lose their innocence, which i guess is very essential!

    "Having a face to face communication with someone is one of the greatest things in life. Amidst decades of technological advancement, it is still the most powerful form of communication. We don't do it enough these days…” - exactly, world has changed so much over the past two decades! Internet is now a necessary evil! Face to face conversations were so much better!
