Absolutes

As this my next blog after my dog's death, I comprehended life a but differently for a whole week.
He died on 21st November, I went to school on 22nd. Many people asked me, why I came to school just after the day of Bozo's levitation to his abode.
I had only one answer to people. I had to move on.

We can't just be stuck on one thing. We move on. We have to.Whether it is death, a great road trip with friends, fun times with parents, whatever, we have to move on and get back to our real lives.
I forgot Bozo(or I forced myself to) so that I could help my parents move on.

Well this blog's not about him. Its about how life and moving on, go hand-in-hand.
I was touched by the fact that this week passed so quick. What clicked in my mind was, if we humans weren't wired to move one, we would probably(when we get old) still be angry or upset about the fact that our fathers lied to us about holding the backseat of the bicycle to teach us to ride a cycle. If we wouldn't move on, we would remain dull and wouldn't grow as experienced and mature creatures. True?

What I wanna say is without moving on, we would be stuck. Its quite obvious from these two words huh?
Therefore, life is as is. There is nothing changing it. You know, many people say that life is a journey.
A journey with ups and downs.

In our subconscious self, we see these clichéd  lines and visualise that they are the same boring 'everyday-quotes'. Therefore, they tend to fail to create a spark in our mind. This fact itself is often taken for granted. You know what makes the same quotes spark in someone's mind? A narrator. A teller. A man who can narrate the same quote with a little twist of his own. When people hear the words from a person, they are moved. You know how the person creates a twist? Because he has moved on and has matured enough to implicate his understandings on you.

Spoken words help you to analyse the depth of emotions(rather than a simple text with emojis which implicate nothing, except in the virtual realm).
My week of observations have given me a clear image of what life truly is.
Its about accepting that life has absolutes; And it will remain a life of absolutes.

bitterness of lillies.

  if patience against malice has a name, let it not be muttered, for all the saints would know better to weep, than to criticise first, let the bitterness of lillies be shrunk to fit into a palm, for anger cannot be grasped longer for than when it is yearned,  let these ill desires be named and those names be ruined,  for this will be a place constructed not in time, but by time, and hidden forms of deep caves would be found in reflections, not of mirrors and rivers,  but in words, all soft and muttered, and in the loud ones too.  so heave and leave, for the bitterness of lillies shall always remain pure,  and the quicker the wickedly warms you up, the better you'd be played against your desires.  ~ sb

Solidarity or Solitary?

on the 10th day, you do look back,  and you see traces of your steps following you on that same muddy trail, and you have returned to that place, you aren't shocked seeing them, thinking they are not yours, you see your footprint, carved in the mud, its of a shoe, and you are wearing flip-flops now. you look down at your feet, knowing you have fresh footprints you are about to leave ahead, which will not match the previous ones, and you think, anyone else who witnesses these two sets of footprints, if they get as far in the mud as yourself, will not know they are the same person's. you realise nobody will know, nobody will know of those 10 days, but you do not stop realising there,  you go further to think that nobody might even care to differentiate. where you stand now, you see you are not far from that cliff, which you had seen 10 days before,  you are exactly where you left your journey, you are exactly where you turned back. somehow this time, you aren't as prepared...

jute bags and lychees

jute bags and lychees,  they're not similar right?  i'm new, and i know that one's a fruit, and the other's not really edible, my brain whispers within itself,  "that's gotta be a stupid observation"  but i wonder why,  i saw a father and a daughter, carrying jute bags and lychees. the daughter, tiny, still curious about the world,  the father, making sure his daughter holds just enough weight to not burden her, but to still let her carry her own.  as i moved past them, and they from me,  the little girl waived at me, with the same hand with the jute bag carrying the lychees, the other still holding her father's hand.  i didnt know the jute bags had lychees in them,  till that little girl waived, and a few tumbled down across the street from the bag,  I'm new, and a few lychees roll down on the street,  its evening, the hues make it seem almost like,  it was meant to happen.  seeing what had happened, the father was e...
