Yes!

I know that corruption in politics always deters us to vote. We may end up thinking “What is the point? Nothing is going to change.” And in most case it is true.

In my opinion, we cannot complain about something if we do not do anything for it. Politics is a difficult career to pursue and one really needs the talent and skill to stay in it. Personally, I feel that I would not be able to handle it and so I choose to vote for the person who I think would be best out of the options I have.

I believe it is my right and responsibility to vote and if I do not do that I should not expect others to perform their responsibility.

When the clock strikes 12

Published on by wordhuesLeave a comment

I think that night owls can relate to me.

I am most productive when everyone is asleep. I feel the quiet of the night makes me more focused on what I am doing.

I do feel sleepy at 10 pm but when I push through that sleep I can keep on working till dawn. Time passing doesn’t even come to mind. Only when my house wakes up again in the morning do I realize that I have skipped bed time all together.

When do you feel most productive?

People, Noises, Wild Imagination..

Published on by wordhuesLeave a comment

I think being nervous is quite natural and in some cases it could be something that actually saves one’s life.

Being nervous around people makes me cautious of their every move. I have developed the habit of observing people and have avoided many dangerous situations.

Noises…. well some of it are just creepy. Could you blame me? Imagine a wailing cat at 3 am in the night. Not something that I would make me think of happy thoughts.

And of course, with everything odd that does actually happen in the world, add to it my wild imagination. And even there is no base in reality for it, I get nervous.

But the one thing I do despite being nervous is to fight through it. Keep breathing and make smart choices.

Draw

Published on by wordhuesLeave a comment

There are many things that I do to unwind.

Sometimes I like to draw up a warm bath and read a nice book. Or maybe just order in food and put on a K-drama on TV and binge watch till I fall asleep.

But the best thing I like to do is to draw. I love any sort of art. It disconnects me from the world and makes me just happy.

Rainy Day Compliment

Published on by wordhuesLeave a comment

I always walk to office. It’s too close to take a cab but the uneven terrain makes it more hard than it would have been on level ground.

I always try to leave office before it turns dark so I have the daylight with me. In my locality, people usually don’t smile, everyone keeps moving with a purpose. I quickly adapted to that lifestyle, I put headphones on my ear, my hoodie over my head and eyes on the distance I need to cover.

But one day on the way back to home, the small drizzle decide to become a heavy rain. I was too far from my office to make my way back and I was too stubborn to take cover till it slowed down. So, I kept walking and then out of the blue a stranger at the bus stop yelled “Hey beautiful! Whatever you are fighting for you will make it! Keep Hustling!”

I don’t even remember her face given that the rain drops were in my eyes but it made me smile. I yelled back “Thank you!” not just for the compliment but for giving me a little more strength to carry through life.

Whoever you are, if you ever read this post, Thank you for giving me a happy memory. It took you a couple of seconds, but you made it into my core memories.

Leaving Toxic people is Good

Published on by wordhuesLeave a comment

Forever, I had think innate need to hold on to people. I felt that I needed to be there for them. Little did I know how much that would affect me.

I was taught that you do not abandon people when they are in a bad situation. For a long long time I maintained that and fought hard. I kept thinking to myself that the person that I was standing by would realize my commitment to them and reciprocate at least a portion of it.

But like they say, the stronger you try to hold on to things the more it hurts. I kept hoping and waiting and at the end of the day all I got was humiliation and loneliness.

It hurts like crazy when you have to walk away from someone and you regret it immediately. But if you hold true and stay away, it almost like a shroud slips away and everything seems a much better.

You finally realize how easy breathing can be when you not burdened by the overthinking. Slowly and gradually you realize and accept that sometimes walking away is really the best thing you did for yourself.

A Volcano

Published on by wordhues3 Comments

I know there are a few inactive volcanos in the world which would cause no harm to humans. However, why take a chance!

All the science experiments aside, the thought of molten lava and poisonous smoke spewing out from a crevice in the earth, it terrifies me.

I have a strong feeling that I would not be able to out run it. So no thank you! I am staying as far a possible from such situations.

Seldom Recognized

Published on by wordhuesLeave a comment

My family always does things for me. I think most families do, but it tends to go unnoticed because we take things for granted.

As a kid, I remember my sister not opening a packet of chips or a bar of chocolate till I was home. My father carried me on his shoulders despite being exhausted himself. My mother gave me kisses before she left for work even when she thought I was sleeping.

After growing up, I remember my sister standing up to my father when he said hurtful things to me. My mother gave a warm huge when I was going through a bout of depression (even though she did not know it. At least I think she didn’t). My father buys me spicy food when I am down with cold even when I don’t ask for it.

So there you go, I really can’t say just one isolated incident, there are multiple scenarios scattered over my whole lifetime. Family can be a handful at times but I am thankful that I have them.

Where there is Good Food

Published on by wordhuesLeave a comment

I am not one to understand that much about food. Weird as it may sound, food is complicated for me.

I do not understand the nuances of the various flavors and their balance. For me if the food is not bad it is good. As such, I have not developed any particular interest to any sort of restaurant. As long as the food tastes good I would like the restaurant.

The one thing I do understand when deciding if a restaurant is good is if the atmosphere is comfy and does not put me on edge. I love when there are booths which give a little privacy and comfy chairs.

So in conclusion, give me a comfortable setting and good food I will rate the restaurant as a favorite. 🙂

Kaleidoscope of Destinies

Published on by wordhuesLeave a comment

If you were to ask me yesterday I would say settled, owning a small business, maybe a house and car.

However, today I am philosophical, as I speculated on the prompt the answer that came to my mind was “How the hell would I know?”. All I see when I think 10 years ahead is uncertainty.

I feel that every situation in my life makes me make a choice and that in turn changes the course of my life. On any other day I would stress out and want to fight harder to get back on track. But today, I am choosing to keep making progress it may not be what I initially planned but that is okay.

I may not achieve things by the initial timeline I set for them, but, as long as I keep trying there is a hope that I will get there eventually.
