Waited

You waited, but s/he never came back. Ykw sometimes people don’t come back & that’s okay, because they’re not supposed to be back.

Ghosts

I was told to write what would I do if I was a ghost, but am I not a ghost already? When you die, your soul leaves your body, and the ones who get stuck in this world, we call them ghosts. That’s what people believe, right? But what do we call people whose souls have been torn apart umpteen times, whose dreams have been crushed ever since they were a kid. Aren’t these people dead already, inside. Aren’t these people, ghosts too, Just like me?

Doomsday

If people will get time from hating each other over religion and language, and if they’ll actually start thinking about the things out there, the voidness out there, the fact that earth is like a dust particle out in the space and that you don’t even know what’s coming for us, they’ll finally be “woke” af. You never know when a big ass asteroid will come and wipe us all out like it wiped out the existence of dinosaurs. If you look at the sky at night, and think about these things you’ll get chills down your spine. But here we are, in this god forsaken world, where people kill each other in the name of religion, which doesn’t even matter, because when this world will end, and it will end someday, it won’t matter what religion you follow, what’s your skin color, white, black or brown. Nothing would matter because nothing would be left. We, humans, are like dust particles if compared to the size of earth, and earth is like a dust particle in our milky way, and milky way is like a dust particle, actually we can’t even guess size of milky way because space is infinite. If people actually start considering these facts, this world will become a happier place to live in. When I lie down and look at the stars at night, all I can think of is that how lucky we’re, that we’re all alive here, how lucky we’re that we live in a planet which is placed at perfect place amongst all the other planets, which makes it the best place where life forms and flourish, but then I also realize that we’ll be the doom of this world, humanity is it’s curse, because no one cares about the nature. We’re killing our nature, our water bodies, this world where we’re supposed to live and let our future generations live. I sometimes ponder, how is this world going to end? Will it be us or something from the outside? To get the answer, all we can do is wait. Till then, breathe, live and let others live peacefully.

Do not give up on yourself

This post is dedicated to everyone who is struggling with the weight they’ve put on and who do not feel good about themselves anymore. Here’s my message for y’all. You’re not alone. We will get through this, together. Just don’t give up yet. You can, and you will beat this and get back in shape again, if that’s not the motive, then you will become fit and healthy again, just don’t give up on yourself.

I have been struggling with my weight since last one year. I know, you might think “but he ain’t obese, he looks fine”, but I’m not. I’m opening up today, because today I realized that I was getting more depressed, day by day because I couldn’t look at myself in the mirror anymore, for it just reminded me how fit I used to be. My weight used to range between 55-60 till 2015. But then 2016 turned out to be a very depressive year, and since then I’ve not been the same. My current weight is 83. In medical terms, I’m almost obese, which my body is not accepting and I’ve been facing a lot of health issues because of that. I tried to get back in shape again, I failed at it. I tried again, I failed again. This cycle went on and on until finally I decided to give up. I was scared to hit the gym again because I was afraid I’ll fail again, and because of that I never went to the gym for almost 3 months, even after paying all the fees. I was afraid to fall. I am STILL afraid, to fall, but then I recalled some wise words of Alfred, which he told to Bruce when he almost gave up on everything, “why do we fall, sir? So that we can learn to pick ourselves up.” And today was the day to pick myself up again. I went to the gym today, I was still depressed when I entered the gym, thinking this wouldn’t change anything, I’m going to fail again. But then I started working out, and it all started to come back to me, the positivity. Once I was done, after a sweaty hour of work out, everything felt different, I felt positive. Now I realize, it was not about the weight I’ve put on, it was all about what I felt about myself. Now I know, that I can change this, that I CAN and I WILL be fit again. I don’t care about the physique, it’s all about staying fit and healthy.

What I want you to take from this is the positivity. It’s all about that ONE STEP which you are hesitating to take, because of the fear of failure. We all fail, and that’s how we learn, that’s how we grow. Don’t fear the failure. TAKE THAT ONE STEP, AND EVERYTHING WILL CHANGE. Trust me. You’re amazing, and I have faith in you. You can do anything you want. It’s just about your will power and that one step which you need to take.
