What's happening to my country?

I wonder what is happening to my country!

The country I’m born into, the land where I grew up, the country I’m a proud citizen of.

It’s disheartening to see it deteriorate, especially by its own people.

Why are we taking lives of each other?

Why Hindu, Muslim brothers hate each other in the name of religion?

We are children of One God, The Almighty. He didn’t teach us to hate or kill our brother. He may have different forms in different religions, but at the end...we all have to go to Him, after all we came through Him in this world.

We were all same in infancy. Our growing patterns, eating patterns, first steps, crawls, first words, babbles…these are all same, no matter we belong to any religion or community.

Then how do we become so different when we grow up? God made all of us equal and same. It’s the society that differentiated us, shaped our character, and assigned us our religion.

Okay, its fine to follow your family’s religion, traditions and cultural values, but that too doesn’t teach you to hate anyone. That doesn’t teach you to offend, assault or offend people belonging to other creed.

Why can’t we stop judging people from their surname?

Why can’t we teach our children to be good human beings?

Why can’t we be more tolerant?

There is a lot of chaos in my mind, muddles in my heart, and a little pain somewhere. I don’t know what more to write, because I’m unable to.

Concern is All We Need

Concern is an important term for all of us, as it soothes more than anything else.
We all seek concern in one or other ways, like when we are sick, sad, hurt, or upset.
 
But what's concern? Of course, you can't buy it.

It's just an emotional gesture - a combination of care and empathy.
Holding hands is concern.
A soothing touch is concern.
A hug is concern.
A mild kiss on forehead is concern.
Saying 'I'm there for you' is concern.

And so many ways...

It may or may not be infused with love, but is certainly infused with emotions and care. It gives a feeling of relaxation, and the relief that somewhere, someone is there for us.

Concern is all we need!

It's Okay to Make Mistakes!


There comes a moment in our lives when we feel just so lonely and empty, despite that we are so accomplished.

It’s strange actually…feeling lonely even when you have the most loving life partner, feeling deprived when you have just everything in life, and feeling neglected even when you are an eye candy for the people in your life. And that's when we make wrong decisions and mistakes.

Yes, this is weird. But not pretty much because we are humans.

Humans… who experience several mood swings in a single day, yearn for things that do not belong to them, and on the top of that do not value those things after they become their own.

We make mistakes in life, for some which we regret our entire life. But it's okay to make mistakes. And we should not be afraid of embracing their outcomes.

Because they are the greatest learning experiences; tell you what not to do, what choices shouldn't be made, and what'll do harm.

Don't worry; people won't remember your mistakes. The only thing that matters is what you learn from those mistakes and what you do with them. After all, we are humans!
