What would you do then ?

When there are a million things going on in your mind and you can't even hold to one! What would you call it? When the day just disappear into thin air and you spent your nights sleeping so even they don't exist. What does even existence mean? Shallow living and deep talks! Or is it just another way to fool the world or fool yourself?

You are searching for solutions and answers everywhere but it isn't easy with what is going on. You want to take charge of your life but not with the set terms and conditions. But who will let you decide it? Nobody. And if you can, then trust me you are one of those lucky people who have this much Independence and freedom not necessarily in every field but just where it is needed the most. I never want you to take it for granted because those who have it never value. I knew precisely what I was getting and I was thankful for it and still, I am. Also, at the same time, I do know what I lack and how it is affecting me.

One wrong decision and your life will fall apart. In my case, it is falling piece by piece letting me feel the intensity of every hit. Do you know how does that feel? You don't because you become numb in the process. You want to feel things but you just can't. You can't call yourself mortal as you have lost that right. You are just a living body because your soul has left long back. When someone holds your hand you don't feel the warmth. Their reassurance means nothing as nothing is going to change. You just sit in a corner and close your eyes and beg yourself to go into a deep sleep because that's the only solace at the moment. But you know what, even dreams won't let you sleep peacefully by presenting scenarios you fear and making them real all the more.

What would you do then?

Review - The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse by Charlie Mackesy

There are moments when you just want to ask questions and sit beside your friend. You want someone to answer them for you even if you know the answers yourselves. When the answers come from someone you are close to, they look much easier to deal with than before. They make more sense whenever you fail to convince yourself. Such is the magic of good friends and companionship. This book is all about it. You will read all about love, kindness, tenderness, and courage. The book revolves around The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse, as the title suggests. First, the boy meets the mole, and later they meet Fox. As the journey goes on, they ask each other questions which are simple but thought-provoking. You would want to sit and think about answers that you would have given or hoped for after you are done reading. It will make you wonder how sometimes the simplest of things have the most impact. My favourite quote from the book is when the boy asks, “What is the bravest thing you’ve e

Review - The Sound of Boots by Merena Toppo and Mansi Sharma

  It is a Covid lockdown story which revolves around a father-son duo. The book depicts several stages of their relationship, from their initial lack of communication to their eventual warming up to each other. It is a simple story that touches my heart and gives me mixed emotions of happiness and grief. We all had such moments during lockdown where we found our lost love towards our family and loved ones. For some, it has been a nightmare. Yet, for some, it represented a glimmer of optimism that transformed their life. This story gives confidence that everything is attainable with equal efforts from all sides. Here, the father unveils a few secrets about his life that he has not shared with anybody, not even his wife. And this secret reconciles the bond between them. Sometimes, someone who fears judgement holds so much inside that they worsen the situation. When expressing their fears is all they need to do to release themselves. It is a lovely book that encourages you to be more acce

Review - Starburst by Robin Pilcher

The book has multiple characters, which makes it very difficult to follow. However, once everyone has been introduced, everything begins to make sense. Set amid Edinburgh Festival makes the story more happening as every character has a specific role in the festival. It is fascinating to see how they unexpectedly cross paths. The book starts with Tess Goodwin, who works in the Main office, then moves on to other characters like Albert Deussuin, Angelique Pascal, Rene Brownlow, Gavin, etc. The best thing is each character has a unique gift and struggles to overcome, yet it’s interesting to see how they work together to support one another. Initially, you might be put off, but if you give it some time, you’ll get hooked. I believe each character represents us in some or the other way. When I first started reading this book, I didn’t have high expectations, but by the time I finished it, I was happy with how well-structured it was. If you are planning to read a light book, go for it. Ratin
