It’s time to wander out of wandering in the desert for 40 years It’s time to re-analyze life as to where it should be It’s time to let go of all the things I have been holding on to All the people I have been relying upon It’s time to set myself free and fly... Continue Reading →

I picked up the phone and dialed your number There was not a single response from your end I hung up thinking “it’s the usual” And got back to my mundane day You called me up and I said “Hello” And you asked me “how are you child?” I sure felt awkward, but I knew... Continue Reading →
As a child of the 80’s, I remember going to school with my own water bottle; one that had water which I took to school from home.

As an individual who could get bored very easily, I sometimes struggle to find ways to keep myself interestingly occupied.

As a habit I have attempted to watch the first movie of a favorite director, read the first novel of my favorite author, listen to the first song of my favorite musician, take time to locate the first ever image posted on a fellow IGer’s account. In this case, I make some effort to locate... Continue Reading →
When the lights turn off And darkness surrounds me I close my eyes and tell myself “Just Breathe” When the ones I love turns against me With lies and remorseful words I close my eyes and tell myself “Just Breathe” When all my dreams are washed ashore No hope that lingers on I close my...

I took a deep breath and exhaled ever so loud as if I was blowing air into a balloon. I was working on my “power step technique” which I read recently, about those who struggle to get enough oxygen into their lungs when hiking.
