I want them all

If you had to give up one word that you use regularly, what would it be?

I think this would be a very difficult choice for me or rather not a choice for me.

I like to use words and I use a plethora of it. The words that I don’t use that often may not hold much significance to me. However, if there are words that I use regularly, which of course I am not particularly aware of there is no way that I would want to give up on any of it.

If I am using a word regularly, it means that I am comfortable with that word, and why would I do something that makes me uncomfortable?

So there you go, I ain’t giving up on any word.

Distant travels

Share a story about the furthest you’ve ever traveled from home.

Unlike the rest of my family, I have had an opportunity or more like multiple opportunities to travel abroad. And shocking. Most of this travels were not with my family,

Every trip was to a new place and on every trip, I learnt something new. I really hope that one day I can say that I have travelled to more than 20 countries at least.

So far the farthest trip, I have taken was a 20 hour flight on account of my work. I did sleep through most or more like 90% of the flight duration. However, the experience that I had in each place that I touched down at have been added to my cherished memories.

Innocence

What brings a tear of joy to your eye?

Who doesn’t smile seeing a baby making funny faces. The instant happiness you get seeing a child opening a gift. A little girl baking for her parents birthday and ending up as a flour covered doll. A child dancing in the rain without a care of the world.

For me, seeing the innocence in and other humans, bring an automatic smile to my face.

The world today is a cruel place. There is no place for innocence anymore.

Everyone is forced to grow up soon. Everywhere you turn it feels like the world is just filled with hatred and evil. We no longer see the good in the world. All we do is live in the constant fear of being harmed

Seeing someone being able to appreciate and enjoy the little joy of life brings a tear to my eyes. I wish that the world was little bit nicer so that we could hold onto our innocence, a little bit longer.

Every memory that we make would not be tainted with the fear of what could go wrong, but with just pure emotions of happiness. I wish we could be children again without the fear that knowing this world brings.

I feel Unpretty

How would you describe yourself to someone who can’t see you?

I think anyone who has to answer this question would be critical about themselves.

If I were to describe myself, I would say that I have a round chubby face. I have thin but long hair, tiny eyes and a tiny nose. And that’s about it. I have no other words to describe myself.

It takes a lot of confidence to call oneself pretty. The world is a very cruel place. It keeps changing its opinion on what is beautiful and we humans keep running to meet those standards.

I recently saw a video in which an artist was drawing a picture based of two descriptions: one, a stranger describing the person’s appearance and the other when the person described themself. It was shocking to see how beautiful that individual looked in the stranger’s eyes when compared to how the individual perceived themselves.

How are you feeling right now?

If this was the prompt for yesterday, I probably would answer it as sleepy and irritated.

Today, however, I am happy or more like content. I might have a lot of things in my life that is not going right but despite at all, I was able to laugh with my friends and family. I watched my favourite TV series, I took some time out to do some art work, and it was amazing.

Today I took a little dry and life gave me and enjoyed the moment. I kept the thoughts of my future and all the worries that come with it at the back of my mind. I embraced the calmness of my mind and added to my happy memories.

Journaling ideas

Published on by wordhuesLeave a comment

What was the last thing you searched for online? Why were you looking for it?

I love stationary, and I seem to have a bit of a problem. I keep buying new notebooks and pens and markers, but never actually use them.

As a part of my New Year resolution, I decided that I am going to use the stationary that I’ve already purchased and overcome the irrational fear that I might not get it again. 

All of my recent searches have been of journal ideas to fill out the blank books lying around. I hope that one day soon I can have ideas without requiring the help of a Pinterest board.

The Break of Dawn

What’s your favorite time of day?

My favourite time of the day is the early hours of dawn. When the sun is just rising from the horizon and the dark sky slowly gets its hues of orange.

Just for those few minutes, you see the world transform from night to day. The sound of crickets die down , and the far chirps of birds fill the air. The air you breathe seems so fresh. It feels like the air after rainfall by the dust has all settled down and you could almost smell nature in its true its form.

It is also the time that the world is at its quietest. For that moment, you can actually hear yourself think and everything feels so calm and comforting.

Even though I consider myself a night owl, I love those 20 to 30 minutes of blissful silence that the morning gives me.

Cook or Eat?

What’s your favorite recipe?

What exactly is the question here?

Is a prompt asking for what I like to eat or what I like to make?

If it’s asking for what I like to eat the answer would be anything made by my mom or sister or dad.

My family always considers my taste before making something for me. So there is no way that I would not like what they make for me.

On the other hand if you ask me what I like to make, I would choose easy recipes. Something that would not exhaust me by the time I am done with the cooking. I love making pita bread, chocolate chip cookies, fried chicken, rameyon, potato wedges, etc.

A place to call my own

Tell us about the last thing you got excited about.

I am the youngest daughter to my parents. Being the youngest child, I was never left alone that does not go to say that I’m not independent. It just means that there was never a circumstance where I had to be the only person making the decision.

This may not be the last thing I got excited about this definitely is the most significant thing that I got excited about the first time I got to live alone. I had always dreamt of having my own home or a tiny apartment where I could do everything according to my vision.

The first time I stepped into my new home, I felt immense joy and pride. For rhe next few months, whether it be a new rug, or utensils for the kitchen or table cloth for the dinner table. it felt amazing to have that sort of freedom in making the choices that was right for me. I did not have to hide my journals or my artwork in the fear of being judged.

My home, actually reflected what I was, and seeing that made me happy.

Naturally Beautiful

How would you design the city of the future?

Given that I have no architecture knowledge, I would choose to refrain from designing a city for the future. I would rather someone who would be able to build a city without harming nature. I do not know the exact word for it, but it could be “sustainable architecture”.

One or the other day, we share how nature is claiming back the land. We humans have made things without the thought of how it harms others and now we pay the price.

Maybe this is not something that would be constituted as a design, but I want proper road markers. I don’t do well with phone directions and maybe proper markers that I can actually spot in the map might help.

In conclusion, I would want to build a beautiful city that preserves the beauty of the nature that it was built in.
