मैं रहूँ या ना रहूँ, मेरे ये अल्फ़ाज़ हमेशा रहेंगे।
और जबतक ये रहेंगे, ये अल्फ़ाज़ तुमसे कहेंगे,
के मुस्कुरा कर ही जिया है इस ज़िंदगी को हुमेशा हमने,
और मुस्कुरा कर ही इस दास्ताँ-ए-ग़म को भी हम सहेंगे।

Hope
We don’t always get what we want, what we deserve. Not everyone is lucky. I’ve struggled a lot in my life, and I’m still struggling. I had dreams. Big ass dreams. Couldn’t fulfill all of it. Because that’s life. Sometimes we don’t get what we want, so we need to learn to find happiness in what we have. If we are destined to do something big in life, we will do it, when the time is right. There’s a phrase in Hindi, which we need to learn by heart and respect it, “waqt se pehle, aur naseeb se zada kisi ko kuch nahi milta”. I’m not trying to demotivate any of you here. I am just telling you to face the truth. And keep working hard, so that someday you will reach that point in your life where you can actually try to fulfill all your dreams and live your life the way you always wanted to live. Accept the reality, but never lose hope. Hope is what keeps the fire within us, alive.

Obstacle.
They’ll always try to get in your way.
They’ll always try to drag you down.
They’ll always be an obstacle between
You and your dreams.
– Society, fear, and insecurities.
– Fight them. Don’t let’em win.
– Abhishek Gupta.
Triumph.
Breathe. Use that anger. Cultivate it inside you and channel that anger to achieve your goals and accomplish your missions, your dreams. Use that anger, and you’ll rise a winner. Don’t let that negativity consume you. Overcome it. Overpower it. Triumph.
– Abhishek Gupta.
O ye young chap.
Don’t stop.
Fight. Move forward. Lose.
Get back up.
Fight. Move forward. Win.
Don’t stop.
Black. Brown. White.
The color doesn’t matter.
Only your path should be right.
Fight. O ye young chap. Fight.
– Don’t stop.

Paranoid.
Feeling restless,
I’m sitting out in this field.
Looking at the sky,
Contemplating about my life.
From it what have I yield?
Stepping into adulthood, now,
I can feel it, how paranoid, I am.
There are so many things, in my mind,
But there’s no one I could confide in.
Behind this strong, rough face,
There’s a paranoid little chap hiding.
No one cares to ask, what I feel,
So every night, I look at the sky,
Where she comes out,
Listens to all my stories,
All my fears and all my glories.
I consider, in my life,
she has come as a boon,
For I spend my every night,
Talking to her. Talking to the moon.
– Shine.

Anger.
All these years, all this time,
This rage inside of you, this anger,
It has all accumulated, inside,
waiting to burst out, to bring destruction,
to bring the wrath, upon everyone.
This anger, you can use it either,
to bring destruction or use it,
to achieve everything in your life,
which you always desired,
which you always wanted.
All you need to do is, use it wisely.
Forge your anger and displace it,
to a place where it’ll help you,
help you to excel, succeed, win.
Anger, if used, in a proper way,
displaced to a proper place,
can help you find and explore,
a person, who was concealed inside,
a person, thriving for success,
who was, all this time, hidden inside you.
He can help you, to get what you want,
to become what you thrive to be.
To win this quest, to search this person,
you need to embrace this anger, and,
use it to solve this quest, to find where is he.
– Anger, if used properly, is the key.
– Abhishek Gupta.
Understand yourself.
Others, are not going to understand.
Others, are not going to hold your hand.
Others, are an amalgamation, of both, fair and foul.
They’re like a pack of wolves, always ready to howl.
Some, will stand by your side, and,
some, will become your adversaries.
Not everyone is going to understand, you.
Not everyone has a heart, as kind as yours.
You will face, ado, on every step that you’ll take.
Failure, you might face, you will face, at times.
Malaise, that might make you feel,
it might make you feel like giving up,
but never, ever, let these thoughts, consume you.
Take control over your mind, my friend.
Brace yourself, for this first, for you need to.
Brace yourself, to face failure, for you will.
Brace yourself, for you need to make yourself
strong, so that you don’t give up, in the end.
Others, will face, yes, they will, what’s in their fate.
But first, my friend, you need to understand,
understand yourself, ’cause others, can wait.
– Fight for justice.
– Abhishek Gupta.
Never surrender.
Intimidating, some situations might be.
Intimidating, some people might be.
No matter, how excruciated you feel.
No matter, how vulnerable you feel.
Nothing should stop you.
Neither the pain, nor the paranoia.
Not even you, yourself.
Nothing should stop you.
Go, you shall win.
Go, for no one can stop you.
It’s the fear, your fear, overpowering you.
Retaliate and kill, this fear, which dwells within.
Without any further ado, go and fight.
It’s not going to be easy, I never said that,
but, you shall win, for, you need to win.
Giving up, is not what your father taught you.
Giving up, is not what your mother raised you for.
Rise, fight, like a fighter. You might stumble.
You might fall. It’s okay, get up and stand
on your feet, every time, when you fall down, but
– Never surrender.
– Never surrender.
– Abhishek Gupta.
