Mistakes - Right or Wrong?

2019 feels so grown-up already ? Right? 
I still remember the time when in school we started writing with pen and we were told that now we've grown-up and now our mistakes will always leave a mark in our life. Learning and making mistakes is good right? Is it? I still stumble upon this thought of how our mistakes define us as a person. For a major part of my childhood I did look forward to use pen for writing because as a child I was fascinated by the thought of growing up and taking my decisions on my own. Making my decisions at that time just meant for me to  procrastinate my homework and assignments and watch cartoon or play with my friends. Funny how it all changed from procrastinating my homework to choosing what to do with my career and my life.

I thought this year will just be like yet another year of growing up and sulking everyday but it came up with good surprises. It's been really good and honestly after coming into college I've changed as a person. I've changed into a person which I was never before. A bit mature, a bit selfish, a bit honest, a bit sincere and in addition to that now as I am growing up I've been making more mistakes. I am unaware of how my mistakes will affect the path that I chose to tread upon but I believe making mistakes is a part of growing up and more importantly the way I still continue on my journey after making errors is what reflects in the end . It is true, mistakes do leave a mark but the expectations everybody has of us being perfect and to excel as if we were born with that skill is what creates pressure to make mistakes.Everyone expects us be to mature and behave a like a grown up and I've always wanted to live life on my conditions when I grow up where I can feel the freedom and break the boundaries of stereotypes, prejudice and anything else that restricts me.
I have grown up to become an adult now but now there are more people I have to listen to and a lot more responsibility which burdens my shoulders. Childhood nostalgia still surrounds me every night and makes me cherish every mistake I did as a kid and one such mistake was my desire to grow up and live a life where I don't have to do homework before watching cartoons.

Blink of an eye that's how quick everything changes in life.

A Break From The World

This vast period of lockdown has been overwhelming for every one of us. We don't know what's going to happen in future and we don't have an end goal to look up to.... Monday blues have turned into everyday blues and worst part is we cannot even do something about it . Although, I do agree that being with your family after years is great and it has allowed everyone to spend good quality time with their family. However, it has also given us a lot of free time which we didn't get normally with our busy routine earlier. This time has got me thinking a lot about the things I used to ignore because back then it was a lot to take on but now these thoughts come more often and haunt you. Some people who have anxiety and other issues may also get triggered but all we can do is learn how to deal with it and wake up every morning and understand that we are not alone . Lockdown has also created a pressure on every one of us to be productive and use this time to do something construc...

Demons within ourselves!

Life is unfair and we all have experienced it every now and then, that just when you think it could not get any better, it gives you a punch knocks you down and doesn't even give you a chance to get back up on your feet, and we have come to terms with it. We just feel this is what life is and it is bound to knock you down but I feel maybe we should not give it a chance to knock us down, maybe life should just leave us alone after all we asked for happiness and not misery and if life cannot give us happiness then it might as well not give us misery. Life ruins you and some people think that's what makes you strong enough to stand up again and face it, I seem to disagree with them. Misery seems to surround you with loneliness and overthinking and it engulfs you, and we might not realize it but not everyone can make it out of that Bermuda Triangle alive. Even if you do, it haunts you for the bright part of your life which you thought will begin when you made it out of that Triangl...
