"My friend, let's escape!"

Another weekend and yeah this time, I kept my promises! I woke up early, went to see the sunrise at the lake, came back and had a good healthy breakfast. I too even decided to clean all the mess that I've created in my room and I really did it! Also washed all my clothes, even the bedsheet! And it really did cheer out the place. Yeah, it is going to be a good day. So then I decided to reward myself. I usually do it. You do something good: You reward yourself! Simple. And yet the most effective idea. Listen to your favourite playlist, buy yourself an ice-cream, or just appreciate yourself. Why go hard on yourself every time. A simple gesture will work. I ordered Pizza! I was happy.

A simple thought, yet a deep one! Why would you ever go hard on yourself? Why ever would you lose all hope on yourself and keep sinking in the ocean of regrets and keep escaping all the actions you'd have taken to make things right. Well, I guess it's the easy way. Just escape! that's my favourite past time by the way. It actually slows things down if you see. And the reason why I escape things is this stupid lesson that I learned when I was in school. I was not at all good at maths! barely passing my exams and just making fool out of myself all around, until this new tutor came into the picture who analysed my way of doing things and suggested me this simple solution. "Whenever you find yourself stuck in something and couldn't figure out how to solve things up, just leave it for a moment! You move on! Go on and do some other stuff! Fresh your mind up. And then after some time come back to the same task and see it in a whole new aspect like you never attempted it in the first place. The higher odds are you'll end up thinking way differently and you CAN find a possible solution this time!" By 'stuck in something' my teacher meant 'maths problems' but I took it too seriously and in a different manner and started applying this simple theory in my life whenever I find myself stuck in a difficult situation. And it actually worked! Yes, it DID. And I started doing well in my exams too. It helped me in my grades, pretty much helpful in my life too, practically speaking. 

Actually, it did really help me in various situations when I lose all hope and could not find the right way out. Similar to my ninth grade maths problem, trying different methods, formulas or hit and trails to solve it, but couldn't. I just jumped to another problem or situation. The easy one though! I knew that solving it is actually going to boost up my confidence a little that I almost lost while trying that one! So I just keep on doing more. And once I realised that I have gathered all that confidence and courage required, I am going to give that "Stuck Up" problem, another try! Most of the time, it just tricks your mind that you are not that pathetic and miserable as you think you are. You are not a loser and you can do it, let's just try it another way. And yeah, most of the time it did really work well. It's just that when we fail at something, our brain just shutter-down all the possible receptors and stops receiving any new information or fact about that issue and keeps on playing the same record of not able to doing it and failing it, all the time again and again! But if we just leave it all for some time and get involved with some new task, we trick our mind by skipping it for a while and process our mind to work on something new could be easier than the earlier one or could be not. But at least we open our receptors and let the flow of information through our brain and that's what it takes to get the results. Our brain just works on patterns and our actions decide them. We just have to keep our receptors on, let good vibes and positivity to enter ourselves and that is the time when the magic begins. So next time if you get stuck at something, just sit back and say these magical words to your mind,"My friend, let's escape!"
Well, here just flaunting my photography skills! ;)

Safar aur Raah.. #InfinityLoveForPondi #Wanderer Khushiya batoorte chalo, Wadiyaan odhte chalo, Niraashiyon ko chodhte chalo, Chalo aur apni raahon mein dhool nichodte chalo; Chalo unn rahoon pe jaha koi Chala nhi, Palkon pe aks aur Dil mien koi shikwa nhi, Chalo sang leke hazaar khwahiyein jaise ithlata neela samandar ho, Ke chalo ughadte hue saare manzill ke nishaan chalo; Chalo fir bhi Jo tum aaj bhi akele hi ho, Chalo tum Dil mien darr aaj ik pal na ho, Bhool jao kya peeche chhod gaye ho jo tum, Bss chalo aur aghe hi badhte chalo; Maana ki bohat kaantein bhi honge raah mein tumhare, Ye bhi maana ki sath hoga na koi tumhare, Maan bhi lo ki tum mohtaaz nhi rahe sath hone ke kisi ke, Chalo, ruko nhi, ab manzill ke aur bhi kareeb chalo; Rukna Nahi hai ke raah rukawat toh degi, Rukna Nahi aaj kismat se bagawat bhi hogi, Tumme ik lau hai jisko koi toofaan bujha Nahi Sakta, Meri maano aaj bss chalte raho aur kahi door tak chalo; Chalo aur

The bleeding loneliness.

“The moon is the friend for the lonesome to talk to.”  ―  Carl Sandburg Hey Moon,  My old friend. I guess you're the only true friend I am left with.  And I can see you too all alone, just like me. Don't worry, don't hide behind those trees,  don't hide behind those clouds too.  They're going to leave you all alone soon. Come to me. I'll sit next to you. I'll listen to all the stories you've got. I am not going to complain about anything, I promise!  I am not going to judge you for the scars you've got, for the heartbroken you've felt, for the lonely nights you've spent!  See, my friend, you're much like me only. We've got so many things in common. I can feel your pain. Come to me. No regrets, no heartbreaks, no complaints tonight. Just two lonely friends sitting next to each other, not saying a word but still listening to everything, still understanding everything.  No more sorrow tonight. Just two happy frie

Adore

That girl I adore was not too far; If I were a moon, She was the brightest star; Amongst the woods that I lived where I got this scar; I'd assumed that's a gift 'coz I've just lived my life in an hour; that girl I adore she taught me how to live; she taught me how to dance, even taught me how to forgive; she led me into a world of our own, where the pain, fear and all the regrets were long gone; that girl I adore was a mess I as knew; the more I figure out, the more she was new; in the world full regrets she bought me some joy; she, smiling, told me not to worry, together, all those scars we're gonna  destroy ; that girl I adore was not even a real girl; just a moment in my eye, just my thoughts unfurl; I forgot where I met her? maybe in a rhythm of a guitar, Ahh! i just realised, that girl I adore, was never too far;
