Roller Coaster: Mid-Year Reflections

Hello ! To the world by my word ,

Have you ever heard about roller coasters? If yes, that's great. If no, let me explain.

      First, clear your throat and get ready. A roller coaster is an amusement ride that uses an elevated railroad track to carry passengers on a train through many sudden or extreme changes in a short time. You may be wondering why I am talking about roller coasters, right? There's a quote that says, “Life is like a rollercoaster. It has its ups and downs. But it’s your choice to scream or enjoy the ride.”

This quote is great because it helps us picture life’s journey. As we approach the midpoint of the year, let me share my story of 2024.

           Like many, I started the year with a long to-do list: learning, painting, writing, creating, traveling, and more. I thought this would be my year, but life never goes as planned. What is life without falling, losing, or even crying? Yes, I cried and lost hope. Watching my friends pursue degrees, earn seven-figure salaries, and have fun made me cry. It wasn't out of jealousy—I cheer for my friends' successes. It was the fear of losing, of not doing anything significant.

My mother’s eyes always try to tell me something, but they are scared of what might happen if they do. She supports me, but I feel lost. Now, I don’t write or paint. My heart is heavy with hate and sorrow, but for whom? Instagram reminds me, “What are you becoming? What’s your problem? People will laugh at you…”  

After hearing this, you might wonder if I chose to scream or be happy. Yes, I screamed and still scream every morning, every hour, every minute, every second, and even now. But I also realized, “Apni kahani hey.! Ending badal denge” but the question is, how?

 Lord Krishna says, “Karm karo Parth, phal ki chinta mat karo”

So let's stick to that. Prepare for everything: learn, read, paint, cry, be happy, drink coffee, sleep, and repeat. But don’t stop. Being happy is a choice. Smiling is a choice. If you're not happy, scream, but enjoy the ride. We have six more months left to complete our to-do list. If you want to change, change the list but don’t stop. Failing is part of life; it’s not the end of life. Let's enjoy this ride and make the roller coaster a part of life. Scream, laugh, cry—everything is fine because we are human, filled with emotions. But never let that inner child hate, and don’t hate that child either. If that inner child goes silent, everything goes silent.

 

Have a great day

The Day I Showed Up for a Child… and Healed My Own Childhood

  Do You Know How Important It Is to Be Present? While growing up, no one was present for my school events or activities. I always cried for that presence. Even when people were physically there, I was often asked, “Why do you participate? I can’t take leave.” Slowly, I stopped participating in everything. I became the kid who never expected anyone to show up. Being present is the bare minimum, yet somehow it has become a luxury. I used to watch other families holding their children, appreciating them, cheering for them. I would just smirk and tell myself, “It’s okay. It’s nothing.” But deep inside, a small part of me always wondered what it would feel like to look into the crowd and see someone there just for me. It’s not that I hate my people. Maybe everyone had their own reasons, their own responsibilities. Perhaps someone needed them more than I did. So it doesn’t matter anymore. It’s just the past. Recently, something happened that made me think about all of...

                      Hello ! To the world by my word ,      So before starting i would like to ask you one simple question ,If any one would ask you :Hey ! what's going on? What would be your answer, I guess most of the answer will be "nothing much ". Isn't it ?  If it was me then for sure I would answer "nothing much " because most of us don't want to show what's going on with us or we can also say that even we don't know the answer of what's going on ?   Even today many are searching the answer for the question What's going on ? Even me , also searching for this answer ...  Hmm now I think i should update my insta bio or insta username as messed soul or messed me , Haha i know it's lame , but seriously think about that ,not my bio obviously .    You know we smile , we talk ,we laugh but most of us don't cry  I guess that's making us feel empty from inside , So ones Dr.Jug...

Shhh... She is WOMAN

  Shhh... She is WOMAN " या देवी सर्वभूतेषु शक्ति - रूपेण संस्थिता। नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमस्तस्यै नमो नमः।। " She is in every woman. In her strength, in her struggles, in her silent endurance. She exists in the fire that destroys injustice, in the love that nurtures life, In the courage that stands unshaken, and in the pain she carries with grace. Woman!!! What does it mean to be a woman? Is it the softness in her touch or the storm in her soul? Is it the quiet sacrifices she makes or the battles she fights without a sword? Being a woman still surprises me—the way women are built, the way women endure, the way women rise even when the world tries to push them down. We are taught to be strong but not too strong, bold but not too loud. And yet, history tells a different story. The earth itself is called Mother Earth—why? Because she nurtures, she gives, she creates. Then why do we question the power of a woman when she is the very foundation of life?...
