The Step Beyond It

"you held on to the edge of the rope, even when you had the ardent desire to elope. you didn't just stay here for the pleasure, you hung on even at times of displeasure. then came the day, you weren't there. but only your memories were here.  i should've known that it would’ve always worked. but i pulled the plug, and even smiled.  of course, i relieved you of your pain,  but i realised i was the one who fell in vain. it was like i threw the rope to you, you gripped it tight, and i cut your light. i owed you forever, now i won’t, ever. i know i’m selfish Jake. maybe the coma was temporary, and i wish the reports had varied. but i was scared, it was always the same every day and each day rarely changed. i remember once your nose twitched on its own,  i  hoped your habit of fidgeting would never leave you, but i realised that was the last movement of yours i ever saw. goodbye, my dear husband, s...

We all have the privilege to watch movies and learn about many things in the world. Movies expose us to a great deal of knowledge. Relax, I am not going to hold a debate on movies. I mean, “only if my blogs were so simple”, right? We have watched many action films where all of us have seen a gun, right? Hold that thought till the end okay? All of the decorations of action films are defined by having guns, and yeah, fighting skills too. People of Iran had been living peacefully until there came a king, a ruler, who was as cruel to people as we are to our self-health.  Admission of the king resulted in seclusion of freedom of the people. He changed all the legal policies and obviously, made it a dictatorship. The Iranis were troubled. One of the couples with a young boy decided to stand against the dictatorship. Pretty gutsy move right? Well, the only flaw in their rebellious decision was that there was no plan. But they were motivated enough to do something. The...

Everyone has a chapter in their lives that they never want to talk about. They always think that that chapter would make them vulnerable in front of all the people. Sometimes people understand that we need our personal space and that we don’t want to share our secrets and they leave us alone. The rest of the times, some people bug us too much, and we end up having an outburst. It may be of fear, sadness, anger, despair or sometimes we just can’t handle our emotions, and a combo comes out. Some of my readers may have already experienced that outburst. If you haven’t, you will. The people who leave us alone, the people who bug us, just want to know what is wrong with us and what is keeping us troubled. So when we have an outburst, for them it’s like skipping an entire chapter in a big, fat book. So they will always be a bit confused. But it is always the quietened hearts that make the loudest rumbles ~⚡️ Speaking of books, if you all, my fellow readers, are novel-readers...

Our brains want certain things and without them, we will never be satisfied. We assure everything by doing them a couple of times. For example, knocking on the door twice, or even thrice. Clicking the volume button a thousand times even if the device is at its maximum potential! Funny how such things prevail, and yet go unnoticed. I've said this twice that unless someone mentions all these whoops of joys, you will never pay heed to it. One such example : Waterfalls. I have known mankind to cherish happiness. I have come to know that happiness comes to these creatures only when they move forwards or upwards. I also learned that victory is achieved when the counterparty surrenders, and not when there exists a peace between the different groups. Mankind is strange indeed. If they cherish felicity, why do they come to watch me? I neither move upwards nor do I provide any speck of hope. I fall. Throughout. The cliffs push me about like the pirates terrorize the laymen...

"The only way to make people connect to something is to include an element in your talent that they want." What to include is still easy to decide. But what people want is something that they themselves do not know unless they just encounter it and I can guarantee it for most of the cases. We seem to get agitated to get something, that we think we want, by simply just encountering it. That encounter may or may not be good, but it is sufficient for us to get an idea.  Now as readers, you may not know what you want to read exactly, but still, you will all form your decisions on how this write-up is based on your liking, and I can say I might not know what to write about. (I pray I know what to write in this one though) But I'm gonna state a different situation which will move you. Sekire was a ten-year-old when she was thrown out of her own house by her mother who was a drunkard. She was under such an influence of alcohol, that she literally punched her ...

In the olden days in Lytton, BC, there was a family of three. The family's head was the Grandfather, Hanks, his Grandson, Neil and Neil's father, Reily. Well, the father really doesn't have a role here much, but I thought maybe three characters in a story would seem more appealing somehow perhaps? Anyways, Hanks had given Neil a scroll wrapped in an Egyptian leaf before dying. Of course, it is mandatory to say that both of them loved each other a lot, otherwise, the story that I'm about to try to narrate won't make sense, would it? The scroll had a message(  it should, right? ) and it read : 'As your hands grip this scroll, my memory in your heart will surely be relived. I wanted to find the perfect words to make you understand how much I'm going to miss you but I failed. But I assumed, that maybe the simple words would make more sense. I only got one message for you. It can be both painful and wonderful at the same time.  I have one of my o...

A young couple had gone to Harbour Island in the Bahamas for a vacation. They had been pretty excited about this trip because it was their first trip after their marriage. As soon as they had gotten off the plane, they wore stupid and spirited smiles that existed because of their brand new love and their smiles couldn't be wiped away, just like the stones on the shore of a beach; because at the beach, all is wiped away by the waves except the stones or rocks. All the names carved with the help of thin branches, all the footsteps which act as witnesses of our journey, everything is wiped away.  When they arrived at the hotel, they were welcomed by garlands, carefully decorated with exotic flowers. By doing this formality, I believe, maybe the hotel achieved their objective of signifying their culture.  They were further shown their room and were comforted by the staff's assistance. Their room had been the perfect shore - facing room. The Harbour Island in the Bahama...
