So there's this desperate need I've observed in people, especially those who are not really close to you, to want to assume your entirety from knowing very few aspects about you. Now, though this makes it extremely easy for  wannabes to impress anyone in the beginning, the reality will eventually surface. Isn't that the reason why we love to take time in knowing someone?  I think the most easiest thing to do is to impress and get impressed by aspects such as looks, the show of money, power, the presentation of something while it may not be so. And that is why the most beautiful thing I've seen in genuine humans is that they just don't try hard. Because there is always someone or something that will be better than you. Even the richest man has competition and the most explosive scientific theories still remain open to scrutiny. So why is it that we expect things to be any different for ourselves, most of us being rather ordinary beings? Is being happy for yourself, l...

We stayed awake all night to put our insecurities to sleep.  Yet the light of the morning couldn't kill the darkness in us.  It is a vital part of our kind. This "space" where no remedy reaches.  It's where everything that goes seamlessly unnoticed suddenly emerges with scars that are too deep to be felt while we are sane.  Things that pass us by when we are too busy being human.  A note to the self that lays hidden inside us like unexplored destinations. It's a regular in the life of someone who feels a lot. The different kind. We are.  Sensitivity is a curse. And emotional intelligence is a bigger one. Queen Bees and Daunting Heroes. We just have a different kind of buzz.  The world is quite harsh to paper boats. But we have plastic on the other side of the paper and we will sail through. 

There is a certain degree of sophistication in keeping quiet. Not all the time. But sometimes, for sure.  In a room full of people, it goes to say that there are varied mindsets and we may find it easier to talk to those who think alike. But what's a good conversation that can't withstand those that aren't like-minded? Out of a few things that I completely hate in life, there is one : that is, "small talk".  I wonder if people who often indulge in small talk ever sit down and wonder about meaningful things at all. It's a pity if they don't. And I'm highly judgemental at this. Life is such a waste if you just let it pass by. Over indulgence in any kind of thing that doesn't eventually allow you to grow in mind and well-being is ultimately such a waste.  I can't beg more to differ from those who are people pleasers. Maybe it is just a rant about things I abhor. But at the end of it all, am I the only one having an existential crisis? Or are peopl...
