Leave Quietly

Leave quietly.

Don't make a fuss.

Don't waste your energy on something or someone that does not appreciate it. 

Yes, it is difficult but what's the point if they don't hear you?

Yes, it crushes you knowing that every ounce of effort you put in was for nothing.

But, listen carefully darling,

Not everyone is meant to understand your worth.

But that does not make you any less valuable.

A monkey can hold a book but can't make head or tail out of it.

That does not mean that it is a bad book but it's just in the wrong hands.

                                               

Silence is the best revenge.

Establish yourself.

So that you will be everywhere they see but nowhere to be found.

That is how you comeback- stronger than a 90's trend.

A little better than yesterday.

 "What is Progress?" Definitely not easy to answer as it sounds, is it? Some might say it is improving and scoring good marks  Some might say it is achieving a higher position at work. Some might say it is growth in general.  While they are all correct, I think Progress is getting 'a little better than yesterday' no matter how little. If you want to start waking up early and if you could wake up five minutes earlier than the previous day- it's a progress If you want to start eating healthy and try to eat one less samosa than the previous day- it's a progress If you plan on writing a book and start by writing one page per day- progress If you aim to clear an exam and you start by studying ten minutes everyday- Yes! It's still making progress. If you want to lose weight and you eat one less sweet than the previous day- Yeah, progress. If you want to gain weight and eat a little more protein than the previous day- Yes! Progress! Progress!! Progress!!!  There

The Feedback Loop from Hell.

 Mark Manson, in his New York Times Best seller book, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck gives a concept called "The Feedback Loop from Hell."  This basically means that feeling an emotion over feeling the said emotion intensely for feeling it in the first place. Let's break it down. Say you feel sad about something that you want to get over, now you feel sad for feeling sad and feel sad again for not being able to get over it.  Say you are a person with temper issues and you lose your temper. Now you are angry with yourself for getting angry and, again you lose your temper over the fact that you make yourself look like a mean person.   And the cycle goes on... Manson says that today's social media culture has given birth to a belief that feeling these negative emotions is not okay, which is not true. "The Feedback loop from Hell has become a borderline epidemic, making many of us overly stressed, overly neurotic and self-loathing"

Just keep swimming...

 "Just keep swimming... Just keep swimming..." You are right. You have probably heard Dory singing it before. For reference, Dory is the cute blue tang in the film Finding Nemo and  Finding Dory, that   suffers with short term memory loss (we're talking 'only-a-few-seconds' short here.) This line is Dory's mantra throughout her journey in the film.  Not one instance in the story did Dory play the victim. She is always the happiest fish and also never fails to cheer up everyone around. She did not let her past define her. She always lives in the moment (literally lol) Dwelling in the past never did anyone any good. All it does is hinder your growth and create false hopes on things that you know for a fact is not gonna happen. Despite getting lost for a million times, Dory found her home in the end. All she did was, JUST KEEP SWIMMING... The takeaway from Dory is that no matter how big of the biggest waves life rises at you; no matter how many fish-eating monst

How "removed" from reality are we?

Image
 The "removed form reality" is an intriguing concept that was put forward by the philosopher Plato. Though he might have given it in the concept of art and poetry, let us give it a current day touchup. First, think about how much we live in the present and try to answer these questions. Do we savour the good things in the moment or follow our first instinct, i.e. to take out the mobile phones and capture it? When you come across a street brawl, is your first instinct to find out what was wrong to help or make it a content for social media? When you come across an accident (God forbid), do you run to help or run with your mobiles to vlog the help and the scene? It has even gone to an extent where, some people have even started recording while crying and being upset, to showcase it to the whole world. What have we become?  CAN'T WE EVEN JUST BE UPSET WHILE BEING UPSET? How much have we drowned our ability to just be humans?  Have we become so insensible to emotions?  Are we
