The Real You.

Don't you think nobody knows the real you? Your closest friends might know you better than anyone else, but there are certain sides of you that don't come around except when you are alone. You keep some feelings hidden because no one would understand, and even if they did understand, there would not be anything that anyone could do to make the feelings disappear.

You know why is that? It is because you are not perfect. And you don't even need to try to be! Accept it. You have made mistakes. You have taken the easy way out. You have lied to your friends. You have hidden the truth so many times from so many people. You have hurt people and somewhere you did not mean to. You are no better than anyone, anywhere! You are just so human. You have faults. And you are honest enough. You are not afraid to admit that.

Do not change, buddy! You will want to change, but you won't. Because that is what we all do. That is what we have all done. We list our faults like a grocery list, and we move on, expecting everything to somehow change itself. It never will. You will never change. Never be perfect. Mistakes will never end. You will, more often than not, take the easy way out. You will leave people behind. And for the rest of your life do things you don't mean to.

You are not that confident too, like you seem to be! At times all you want is to get held. Held by someone! You love that, don't you? Sometimes you want to talk about what is bothering you. You do want a hug sometimes. Sometimes, you want to be the funniest in the crowd. You get moved when a boy cries in front of you. You know what it is like to see something funny and not laugh. You have been the man of some match, sometimes. And disregarded, sometimes.

You know life is tough. It gets tougher. You also know that life is not that harsh. It has given you happiness that cannot be measured. You are just so very proud of yourself. Because, it is better to be hated for what you Really are, than to be loved for what you are not.

You know the Real You. Don't you? 

Never change.

Valentine's Day.

Another day to be celebrated.

Some wonder why. Some thank Archies. Some have their refrigerator full of chocolates. Some go the way out of their wallets. Roses, Balloons, Teddy bears, Cards, the color Red is all what is around. 

Valentine's Day is altogether another reason to fall in love again. For those who know what Love is, they hope to attach good memories to this day. You make someone feel special. You confess. You go with what your heart feels like. It is just so honest. You let people know how much you love them. 

Well, yes, there are some, who don't have a special someone in their lives. Some get sad, some wish they had a reason to feel glad too, some just don't know why does this day exist..or may be..why do they exist on this day.. It is nothing to feel low about. The day is about love, about happiness. Being Single does not mean you don't love anyone, or no one loves you. For those who are ALMOST SINGLE, well, keep loving. It feels nice. Don't take it to be inadequate. Don't get half drunken and call up your ex! At least not till it would make you feel bad afterwards. Just make out reasons you can celebrate this day. May be with friends, family, anyone. Have chocolates. Full-Fat Snacks. Treat yourself amazingly. You can't love anyone else unless you love yourself. 

Raise a toast to those long walks, romantic songs, hand written notes, sweeter good mornings. They make your life soft and peaceful.  Let people know you love them. You wont lose anything. 

Feel good. Its the Valentine's Day.

:)

No Regrets, Just Love.

You Meet, You Like, You Fall in Love, You Fight, You Make Up, You Fight, You Curse.


Who does not know what this is like. When things go Bad, how you wish those things did not start. You look in the mirror and you feel so bad about your own self. You made the wrong decisions. You trusted wrong people. You expected way too much. And, yet, you got nothing from them. But to think, You gave them Love. You gave them the right trust. You made them Happy. You always put them first. They were your priority. There is no Single point that you should be upset about at all.


Not everyone is successful when it comes to emotions. Some people are just lucky that destiny gives them what they want to. But, if destiny does not favor you, you should not Regret expecting from it. Feel Good about yourself that the other person has no reason to think bad about you. You were just so giving throughout! If you Loved, or If you still Love someone who does not Love you back, do not regret confessing your feelings, or may be, being yourself. You did right. Life is too Short. Let the ones you Love, know that how much you Love them. And, never ever Regret anything. You must have done something which you now think is wrong, but at that time, You and Your heart just went with the Flow. 


Be Happy that you can Love someone So much. We do not always get back what we give. Lets not feel bad about giving. We do get Hurt in the course of time. Sometimes, repeatedly. But Loving was not in our hands, and therefore, You can't Stop Loving just like that. 


Say what you Feel like saying. Do what you Feel like doing. Life is just too Short for everything.


Keep Smiling Folks. Cheers :)

What do you actually See in someone?

"Isn't that Akshat?", Shubhangi asked me.
"And now, who is that?", I said.
"I Had seen him at a party last week. I found him so different."
I looked up at the 'different' guy. 
He wore a checked shirt, just like the guy right next to his table did. He had a common hairstyle. He was as normally busy with his phone as so many others in the room were! He was average in looks. I turned to her.
"Did you talk to him?", I said.
"No!! I just saw him at the party with some people I know".
"And what on earth encouraged you to call this guy 'different'?"
"Look, Sapna! Let it Be. I don't 'think' so much like you all the time."
She turned towards where he was sitting and looked at him while he was confused with his tangled earphones.
"He is just like any other guy Shubhangi.", I said with a sigh.
"Why don't you consider an exile?", she said helplessly, well, anyone would.


Now, it was just a mere energy about him she liked. And, indeed, it made her very curious about him too. You notice, admire, and you like it. This is natural. Happens with everyone. At one point or the other, you do come across people: not many, just a few, who impress you. They don't talk to you. They are not even that extra ordinarily special, but there is something about them you tend to like. What is it?


It is Interest. It is curiousness. It may be like a passing phase. Sometimes, (that is what I generally find,)  people misunderstand it as their Crush on that person. But, it is really not that way. It is a very strong impression, that has scope to grow further!


You notice that person, very minutely. You tend to like small things about him or her. You even tend to avoid a few flaws thinking that nobody is perfect. But frankly speaking, what you avoid now, is what comes in front of you majorly, later! And, what you consider 'different' now, is really not enough, later again. 


People casually say, The First Observation about a person, always stays. But they forget to tell (to those who do not think so much*) that you see what they want to show.


It is not just girls. It applies to Boys too. They see this girl. She is sweet, she doesn't talk to boys much. But, she looks so much modern! "Man, this girl is not like others. She is definitely good and, yes, she is different". 
Dude, her brother was in the same room!


Positiveness. Charm. Intelligence. Values.


How can you judge a person has all this^? We trust what we see. What we see is not always right. And when, on one fine day we come to know this, we feel like a fool. 
Suddenly, the same 'different' person is non-ethical, unworthy, and too much ordinary! (The common used phrase is "Like any other!")


Our conclusions change. The person is the same.




Your conceptions are not always wrong. Personally, my conceptions have even improved at times. Sometimes you find a person very negative in the start. But, by time, you realize that you were wrong.




It is about us! What we See in a person! What we conclude out of him or her!
It is easier when we don't judge. So, the next time you find a 'different' person. Make sure you don't annoy yourself later..!


Cheers. :)
