Living online

About 15 to 20 years if someone is said to live dual lives, people would think he has got a multiple personality disorder. But in recent years, almost all of us live dual lives – a real life and a virtual life. In our real lives, we are what we actually are, with are innate qualities, traits, physique, personalities. Real life is controlled by Fate, Destiny. Virtual life is controlled by oneself. We give ourselves our desired traits, qualities, personalities, physique. Everything about oneself can be altered with just a click. Some people even change their genders too without undergoing … Continue reading Living online

Journey of being a writer

The idea of writing my own fiction crept up my cranky brain when I was in 8th standard i.e about 5 years ago, when all of a sudden our English teacher came to the class and asked us to write a short fiction in forty minutes.

Time was running out and I just wrote something. And yes, it was disastrous. Now when I read it, I realise. It … Continue reading Journey of being a writer

Only 3 films old in Bollywood career. But I loved his work, especially in his latest film. I never spoke to him. He doesn’t even know I exist. Still whenever I see his films, I seem to connect with … Continue reading Not talking to someone

Because whenever I open my laptop I get to see my wallpaper, a collage I had made few months back. It has captured all the memories of my school life. School life… The best phase of life. The school building, friends, going school on Saturdays for extra activities, our cat fights, our gossips, every memory flashes before my eyes as soon as I see the collage. 14 years…..So many memories……Sometimes it becomes hard to segregate one … Continue reading Rememberance
