Rootless

I’ve been in a perpetual state of (un)belonging since childhood. It is difficult to imagine the pain of loss, the angst, the outrage and the constant longing of those who are yearning to return to their homeland. People who are displaced/ exiled for any number of reasons. Personally, the feeling of homelessness is the closest that can come to what a person may feel when he/she is forced out of his/her birth country. This sense of alienation, of despair seems similar to me. It is one thing to live in a house and another to have a home, to feel at home.
I feed on my dreams just as they do, longing for a home that is perhaps not even there, searching for my identity, my purpose in this world. For me exile is not just a geographical concept it is also an emotional, mental state of being. 
The feelings of rootlessness, despair and loss. I don’t know if I could bring out what I actually felt while writing.

Happy Times :)

August is a bitter sweet month for me. It is my birth month  🎂  & birth month of some more special people. This month has colors of friendship  & brother sister love. But there is a lot of heart break attached to it too.   I will focus on the good especially on the writing front. We lose some we win some. Onward we go. Since childhood my birthday has always been a very special day for me. I start waiting for my birthday from the very next day the current one ends. I have tried to always make it special and memorable for me. But most of them did not turn out as I wished n tried for. But from past few years it comes with some sort of fear attached to it. It no more has the excitement it used to bring along.  Wish to get the "LIFE" back in my life.  It might need a lot of efforts and strength but u ltimately,  I decided to write about all of it because I think we could all probably use a reminder to be kind to ourselves. I hope to write something that hel

Emotional Violence ... Even against Men..!!! Do we really Know?

Image
Violence against women is talked about whether its physical, emotional, mental or sexual but wat about Men who suffer silently? It is easy to see some peoples visible injury, but what about those who are step by step destroyed with verbal and psychological abuse? Some things will never change, coz its fashionable to cry for violence against females. Though I fully agree the females need support ... but tilting the entire balance of law and society against the males is just killing a soul from words.Seeing this breed of men suffering and being the victim of emotional and verbal abuse is sad and equally disheartening as it is to see any woman suffer. A man just looking for peace at any price is becoming a prey and being held responsible for all those things which were not even intended ever.  Some woman can actually create that sympathy and drama worldwide. The fear tactics are used to keep the Man under control. Society is a weapon for every such woman cos she knows where and

Choices..!!

The idea of love is very rosy but be very assertive about your self-respect and dignity. Do not ever allow yourself to be shattered just because you are in love. If there is no mutual affection and respect in a relationship then it would never thrive. Everything else fades away with time. Adjusting, compromising with yourself on various grounds in hope of a blissful haven is foolish. Unconditional love is a silly thought. There is no such thing. Every act of love seeks something in return and if one doesn’t love oneself one can’t expect love from others. What you give to others is never enough and is often thrown back at you as an object that supposedly smothered them. Never give away all of yourself to anyone. Never. Mistakes/failures are always very good teachers. Each failure, each rejection is a stepping stone.  They teach you lessons that you need to learn, strengthening and resurrecting you in the process. It makes you reach inside and know yourself better.  No school or colle
