Hosseini, Khaled. And The Mountains Echoed.

Austen, J. Pride and prejudice.

Long time no see!

Life has been pretty busy since last two years. Adulting is actually a difficult job. Still I have been trying to read as many books as I can and currently, this one’s on.

“Collected Works of Kahlil Gibran”

I have just started reading this beautiful book and it makes me want to say “Hold on, Adulting. We will deal with you later. Firstly, let’s appreciate the beauty of words that Kahlil Gibran has put together.”

Baguette (homemade) topped with Garlic Butter and some Herbs. Something very basic to snack on. :)

(Also, book that I am currently reading is The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald.)

i remember reading something like "people are not rain or snow or autumn leaves; they dont look beautiful when they finally fall" years ago and then I never saw that post again, and yet I constantly think of it and it reminds me how fleetingly life slips away

If my future husband doesn't first profess his love to me by telling me that I have bewitched him, body and soul, and that he loves me most ardently, then I don want it

When Dorian Gray said “Each of us has heaven and hell in him, Basil.” I felt that.

Wilde, Oscar. The Picture of Dorian Gray.

Why don’t people today want to be the better versions of themselves?

Why does everyone say “accept me the way I am”?

Well, according to me, people are too lazy and oversmart these days that they think they’re well aware of everything but on the contrary, people are so full of themselves and are such KNOW-IT-ALL type of people, it scares me. The future that lies ahead of us is in danger because of such people who don’t want to do better, who just want to be lazy and prideful that they miss out on basic things in life.
