Conversations

Memories and conversations go hand in hand because we tend to relate one with the other and, later think about both. One can be picky with memories but not with conversations. What one has spoken remains intact as it cannot be changed and impacts a lot to the other party involved. Funny thing is, this is the only way you get to know a person prima-facie and also, how they make you feel. Don’t you think our conversations have become banal over some time? We are always beating around the bush but not saying what’s on one’s mind. We fear if we speak the truth then things might go wrong, but we are ready to deal with ourselves feeling bad. It is supposed to be wrong, but the majority of people will disagree with this. We tend to say things that we are not looking forward to doing, but end up doing exactly the same. This usually happens when we are not comfortable enough to share our inner thoughts and then we come to those conversations which happen overnight without letting yourself know that it is happening. I believe we all love these conversations.

Let me ask you something, “How often do you communicate what you want to say?”. I don’t think it happens as often as you want it to be. Have you ever asked yourself what is stopping you? If yes, you are in the right direction of solving things out because then you know where you have to look. If no, sadly you are making it a habit consciously or unconsciously in a few cases. Judgement, it is one of those reasons which puts you off and you tend to shy away from letting things out. I, for one, am a believer of grey areas as not everything is pure black or pure white. There are areas where you need to trade carefully to maintain a balance. Some people don’t get it and you don’t have to worry about those because not everybody can get you even people who are close to you. There are things which we need to handle on our own no matter what. Yes, they can be your support system when you fall back, but they can’t stand at your place.

I’m sure we all have such instances where we think we cannot utter a single word, but end up blabbering everything. These are the best kind because you are free from any kind of judgement and can express whatever is coming to your mind. There is no lag or filter. It’s just you, your thoughts and that listener. Remember those late-night conversations you have with your siblings or friends where you both are serious but keep the environment light. These conversations make the best memories because you feel free and alive. And against all the odds, you want to keep moving forward.

Conversations are important because unless you let things out how the other person will get to know your perspective about things. You have to tell what is wrong when things don’t look fine. Also, not just ‘what’ you said, but ‘how’ you said it matters. So, let your talks be as expressive as you can and let people in. It might not seem easy but you got to try.

Review - Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte

  I don’t know what to make of this book as it left me with so many things to think about regarding the scenarios/situations I read. Also, if it falls into the romance genre, I can only find revenge and desperation to prove the other person wrong. The book is tricky as it has a story within a story. But after some time, it becomes easy to identify one from another, and it doesn’t feel like a chore. I found it hard to understand what is going on at the beginning.  Also, the gothic parts were very few and were not scary at all. They added little to the story; I feel. I felt something would come out of it, but found nothing. There are two main characters, Heathcliff and Catherine, and both were just okay. I didn’t like Heathcliff at all. His traits were brutal and harsh. Despite that, I was always looking forward to what he is up to next. On the other hand, Catherine is too sweet and gullible (not the Catherine you are thinking about, though). The book has a theme of love, frie...

Review - Lullabies by Lang Leav

Poetry books are always beautiful because they speak more with fewer words. To grasp the underlying meaning, you need to reach the depth of the expressions. They make you feel things that you have forgotten about and make you forget those that you don't want to remember. Poetry is a wordplay where you like some and love some a little more than the others. Lullabies take you to places from where you do not want to come back. I really loved a few pieces of poetry. They spoke to me in a language which I'm unable to express. Some were too distant for me to reach. It might be because of the way I approached them or never had that kind of experience to get those. It is a combination of poetry and excerpts. I have always loved Lang Leav's posts. Hence, the book came with a familiar aura of wishful emotions. If you are a connoisseur of poetry, you should definitely try it. It might not be best, but it will provide you with something useful. Rating - 3.5/5 Genre - Poetry

Review - Mapping Love by Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari

I'm finding it hard to talk about this book because there are so many emotions weaving inside that it is becoming tough to keep a hold on one. The story tells you different scenarios, each one weird from another. Weird because people don't do such things. Though some do things on a whim, this felt a little extra, with a perfect amount of crispiness in it. The protagonist is at such a phase in life where everything looks in vain, but there is hope, too. If you are letting go of one thing, another is ready for you to grab it, yet it depends on how you take that situation or behave under such circumstances. It shows the relationship we share with our parents. How we are close to one parent more and despise the other for some of their weird habits. It doesn't mean we don't love them, but we do not accept/agree with their habits. For some, this becomes a reason to stay distant, and by the time we realise the reason behind said behaviour or habits, aeons have passed. It also ...
