Weird is Normal

-

Writing has always been something to me like the meditation is for a lot of people today. It always gave me that space, which I had longed for. A place to share a piece of my inner self without any interruption or being judged. The very thought of penning down something here, makes me feel alive again. Alas, how could i stay away from it for so long?

Still, I did! Maybe I was just scared of writing down something, which should have never been written! Or maybe I was trying to escape myself! Either way, not something to be bragged of!

Here i am! Finally back! Feels like coming back to home, after a long journey. And the way you feel after getting back to home, tired of roaming around, looking for that solace, I am feeling right now. After moving to this city of dreams, i can say even I have started chasing the dreams! Just that my dreams are a little different than normal people. Generally, people dream of a big car, big home, amazing career or a world trip! And me, nowadays I only dream of some solitude! And this city has actually gifted me the same. Not that, I am complaining about it, in fact, have fallen in love with it. Few years, back I wondered how can someone enjoy solitude, and today, I enjoy it more than anything else!

Looks like, it has been a good transition from a social butterfly to a closed treasure! Yes, a closed one, that's one of the reasons for my absence for past few months. One of the proofs being, the first time in life, I wished to skip a family wedding.

It's been more than a year that I moved here, and this time has transformed me a lot. Made me realized that am still an introvert the way I used to be in school. Could go for a whole day, without speaking with anyone. 

I know a lot of people including My Angel, and My Pole Star, will not appreciate this. Have already received the complaint from "My Angel", "You have become so quiet!" And as always, I could not say a word, except for smiling. Looking forward to seeing the Pole Star, and what I get to know now! :P

Nevertheless, I still enjoy this solitude that now I have started declining the invitations, citing lack of interest! :P I know not a good thing, got bashed by mom on the same.

Since it's been a day of introspection, realized that it's not that I dislike speaking, it's more like I do not have anything to speak. This sounds weird, but knowing me, everyone would say "Weird is Normal". Guess that sums it all, "Am weird" :D

Just a few days ago, Cute Li'le Angel happened to be in the town on a business trip, and as usual, we almost fought the hectic schedule, city weather and the traffic to have a meeting for a couple of hours. Somewhere we both knew, that there is no formality of meeting, instead more a need to see each other, our own way to cope up with the fast moving life!  As usual, our conversation was much beyond about the life we are living, and more focussed on deeper thoughts. Obviously, we know each other like back of a hand, and still, love to know each other more when it comes to how we are evolving as a human being in this world. And, every interaction we have, inspires a blog here!  This time, the thing that remained was, "Learnings in life" over a cup of tea.  Guess she was not very sure, that even at this age, we are still learning about how to conduct ourselves. But for me, I was pretty sure, i have a long way to go when it comes to learning things. For me, it is more about ...

You Are More Than the Mind

-
 'The real "you" is different from those thoughts. You are reacting to every thought that visits your mind. By reacting to all of them, you are paying attention to your thoughts and feeding them, allowing them to exist. That is how a troubled mind creates a chaotic world.' This is an excerpt from a book am reading. A book which happens to be a fiction, and i didn't expect to read such a deep line in that one. It made me think, ponder upon even after days of reading the same. This is something that i learnt during Vipassana. My understanding of this is "Things keep on happening around you, whether they are good, bad or negative positive for you, completely depends on how your brain processes it, which is again dependent on what have you fed it in terms of thoughts and inputs (like reading, watching, etc).  They say, we create a version of reality in our mind, which is a product of actual happenings, our thoughts/ideas and our reactions to them. What you pay at...

An year of Metamorphosis!

Since the last post, life has been overhauled. It's been six months, and life is completely different now. A lot has happened in these six months, and I cannot relate to myself anymore. The person I was before April and the person I am now are two completely different human beings! Definitely, I have become more boring than earlier.  This year has been the year of firsts! Many things happened for the first time with me, and I did many new things.  Getting fired Vipassana Living in negative temperatures with basic means  Not planning anything  Noble silence for 9 days (Trust me the best time of life) Living without a phone, internet, and family  Lived at an altitude of 3500+ mtrs from sea level  Rushed mom to emergency for cardiac care Went on a trip with my Angel Welcomed a baby girl in the family. The first daughter after me! When she was born, no one in the family knew what rituals we had for a baby girl, as the ones who did all of them when I was born ar...
