Goodbyes
It feels weird. I used to give a hug, say bye, then leave. But now I think it’s a bit more challenging to do so – to say goodbyes. Is this even a thing? Does this happen as we grow older and realize how much more valuable time is? Especially time with parents, family, and … Continue reading Goodbyes
What you see is not what you get
The world is full of facades that might surprise you if you have a closer look at it—anything from buildings, software applications, and books to people, relationships, and families. There is a cover for almost everything when looked at from the outside. I think a bit of skepticism is normal and sane to avoid going … Continue reading What you see is not what you get
Catch yourself
There is much written and said about human self-awareness. Things like we should know who we are, what we want, what our values are, and what we like and don't like. These aspects define us as humans. They make us different and unique. Based on this, we think, analyze, and make decisions. Self-awareness is a … Continue reading Catch yourself

"Love your parents. We are so busy growing up, we often forget they are also growing old." This gives me goosebumps every time I think about it.

So, if somebody tells you who and how I was when they met or last interacted with me – perhaps that was a week, a month, or … Continue reading Improved version
M1: Being comfortable alone
It is been almost a month since I have been back at being single but feels like an eternity. Everything around the house feels emptier, but not my soul. My soul has found tranquility between all the emptiness. It is tremendously difficult when a relationship does not work out how we envisioned it. There were … Continue reading M1: Being comfortable alone
Fighting addictions
I have a problem. How many of us can be honest and say these words not only to ourselves but to the people that love and want the best for us? I think it is necessary to often look inward and examine what, how, and why we do the things we repeatedly do. I have … Continue reading Fighting addictions
Improving myself
Every day is a constant reminder to improve myself in every possible aspect. From being kinder and more empathetic to being more selfless and generous with my time, presence, and attention. I’m trying to be a friend to myself. I'm trying to be a better friend, partner, son, and brother. I’m also trying not to … Continue reading Improving myself
