Does anything actually make sense anymore if we all will eventually become dust someday? 
We chant ‘All will be well’
But all never gets well.
Each passing day, we console ourselves
With the future we only HOPE for.
Today is the future you fantasized about ten years ago…
On the long run, it seems there’s no future, just yesterday and today
We live for the moment with memories of past experiences.
No matter how many rules you apply, the question remains unsolved
We only end up trying to live up to expectations, validations and approval.
The target shouldn’t be to make it in this life Nobody ever does in the real sense
Because man is insatiable.

Just live while you can!

2020: What a year?!

Image
So it is over ten days into 2021, and I just realized I am yet to gather my thoughts about 2020. I guess everyone had a time of retrospection, throwbacks, and so many end-of-year shenanigans. But here I am on Jan 14th (12:23 am), trying so hard to end 2020 in my head with this note.  I screamed “Happy New Year!” and did every other conventional activity that comes with a new year, but I walked into the year nonchalantly. No. I actually slept into the new year. I could not risk taking the “new year, new me” path because I knew I would get lost.  But this is me screaming: “Fu*k you, 2020!” Returning to school with so much energy in Feb 2020 was my starter pack. I just wanted to smash all my goals – live, love, learn, explore, connect, grow, stay happy, and maintain good grades. But I ended up staying ten months in school doing one thing: living.  It was a game. Survival of the fittest, maybe. Each month displayed the power of their numbers in ascending order. As we counted ...

The night seemed to be in a deep romance with silence for hours, as Bella turned and rolled around the messy floor, her back aching from how she laid. She shrugged and muttered to herself, “wish I could close my eyes in peace a little longer”. With swollen eyes as a result of crying far into the night, she reached for her torchlight; to aid her get to the bathroom. Luckily for her, power was restored. “Tik-tok, tik-tok” the wall clock chimed. It was that time of the night again. Bella made her way to the bathroom to take a dump and freshen up, not knowing if she was preparing in disguise or not but she just wanted to feel water against her skin. The few minutes spent in the bathroom was relieving, as her mind was void of thoughts. Back in the room, Bella tried to tidy up. She eyed the broom sitting at the corner next to the wardrobe before glancing at the pile of dirty clothes in the laundry basket, feeling reluctant to do anything. Her fingers raked through her hair, finding an i...

Growing pains

Image
Sadly, we are all selfish. As much as we all encourage growth and whatnot, we still find it hard to accept that others have grown. We congratulate ourselves, we praise ourselves, we feel good about ourselves when we compare our intellect of years ago to the present time (at this point, it is no crime to be narcissistic). But we find it hard to accept that someone else has grown, not just any growth, but one that supersedes how we ever imagined.  For instance, a supposed mentor will preach growth constantly to a mentee, but will, in turn, find it hard to accept that growth when it comes.  So many times, we mistake naivety for humility and growth for pride. We like people to live by our rules. Even parents want that same 2-year-old baby who answered to everything they stipulated to still be the 20-year-old adult. Somehow, they still want you to follow their precepts, beliefs and all without understanding that you have grown to have a life of your own even though they still preac...
