Growing up in this world is strange.
As people get older,
friends become the family they choose,
and family-by-birth?
well, it starts to come second to everything.
It grows apart.
It becomes stranger.
Strangers, whom we aren't responsible for,
whom we don't wish to understand,
whos presence start to make us feel embarrassed.
And relatives, oh, the biggest villains of us GenZs.
They make our lives miserable, they lower our self esteem, they gossip a LOT!
Really? Hmmm,
Well, were they the villains when they clapped for you while you had two left feet?
Were they the worst, when they gave you gift money as blessing every time they saw you?
Were they the gossipers when they spread smallest of your success in whole wide world?
Yeah, growing up here is strange,
Where Strangers become family ,
And family...
It becomes too much to handle...

I've never gulped water with such rush. With such restlessness, like i do now. I hope for it to fill me up. Completely. From inside. Like its a heavy plug. The hole in my chest would stop bleeding for once, and my heart would float for a second in the emptiness, it used to drown in.

Just found it at the time in my life where i was asking myself, "why isnt my life and ME normal? Why cant i be carefree and reckless and ignorant for once!?" Here, my inspiration just gave me the answer...
“No one is remembered for being normal.”

Such beautiful lines .... Had to share them
Lets sit out and watch the rain pour. I'll look at you and envy the rain drops that fall on your face, so delicate, sparkling like stars. Tracing down your face like my fingers wish to.
You say you wanna be pretty,
so the world would love you ,
so the eyes would admire you,
so the lips would discuss you.
But , my dear,
don't ever forget,
love of this world has become cruel.
You'll be a pretty little flower,
just to make them happy,
and all they'll do is
stare, pluck, smell and throw.
So honey,
better be a Venus flytrap,
beautiful in its own,
but nobody ever can
stare,
pluck,
smell,
and throw.
Sure they won't like you,
but trust me, it's better than
being left alone to wilt,
only because they thought
you were the prettiest flower
in the garden...
In a world
as creepy as a graveyard,
one should seek solace
in the flowers rested upon the grave.

Scribbles on the Sky turned 1 today! I can't thank you all enough for making this year a memorable one on Tumblr even though I went through many ups and downs...Really, i wish this community stays the way it is... btw I am back on Tumblr after academic break and can't wait for getting to know so many more of you amazing people!
"Life is a series of random events that happen between birth and death.."
They said. They said out of utter innocence... Or maybe ignorance.
'Random' is when something SEEMS chaos.
Seems...
'Random' is when we can't understand or find a pattern, that satisfies our human brain.
But one day just
Stop. And observe .
Observe the tiniest bits,
instead of seeing the big picture,
look at the fine details.
That is when , you'll see.
In the mind of God
this world was created.
Nothing is random here.... Just so intricate ,
it is hard to comprehend .
But just try, and you'll realise ,
that it is not cliché
to say that ,
Everything happens for a reason ,
cuz it does.
Some butterfly, flapping its wings in any meadow in Australia,
can cause a hurricane in Africa and we'll never know.
not like it means to or even realises it can ,
but it can .
What are we here for
If not
To become the spectators
Of the cosmic artwork
Unfolding before our eyes
The cosmic artwork
Of a blue sky
With rose strokes across
As the sun's about to die
Over the far horizon
Only to be born again
The next present
With a new light
The cosmic artwork
Of the birds singing,
On birth of light
Each sunrise, of the clouds
Swaying and changing hues
The cosmic artwork
Of each little life itself
The chaos seemingly random
Binding us all with one life
Of the artist itself.
The cosmic artwork
That created nature,
The mother herself
For she's the artist of
the cosmic art,
Her eyes glittered in awe
Of her own self.
.
.
Is it your poetic gaze, those damn poetic eyes, or just my poetic heart, the very reason why every part of you each way you exist, is the most beautfiul possession that i can ever call mine....

Yesterday, me and my sis went to get a haircut after 2 long years. I was sitting there as my sis got her hair chopped down and noticed a guy sitting beside her.
He had been there before we came in and left just before us - when both my sis and me were done. He just sat there and got a freaking makeover in all the possible ways. I personally don't like spending time in salons just to look good but that's just me, he liked it and did it and I was like yeah , you go boy! *Me feeling guilty for even noticing ,as this should be normal*
The guys who pamper themselves, who get facials and spend 2hrs in a salon getting everything done to look good, I feel they are truly open-minded. They don't care if people say "why is he spending so much time to look good? He is a guy! Such a girl thing to do!". Cuz they don't think that caring about looks is a "girl" thing. It's a human thing. Either one cares or one doesn't care. Nothing to do with the gender here.
Funny thing is that these people, guys who are in salons, don't even realise they respect females in that way. They will still go out and say " women take so long to get ready" when they just spent 2hrs getting there beard and hair set . Feels like in this society , a person has to have courage and bravery to say " It is no such thing as a girl thing". So , choosing the easier way , they say " Huh! Women." *Eye roll*
The society is build this way, it makes us feel this way. But we make the society too, and I feel we are here to change this. Let guys care for their looks if they want and girls not care if they want. Go ahead , be yourself . And you don't need some new found courage for that. Nothing is a girl thing or guy thing ,if it is, it's a human thing.
Btw, I got my hair from longer-than-shoulder length to cant-even-touch-the-eyebrow length and I love it!!
