Those that,
shimmer with pride,
laugh in agony,
doubt with confidence,
wander in boredom,
shoot questions,
hide in fear,
lie casually,
shower peace,
smear love,
smirk in sarcasm,
dive into the ocean of thoughts,
radiate power,
narrate  stories,
read your minds,
reflect,
help you find yourself,
and there are also some
that look beyond.

I've seen them all
but I still look for more,
because to see the world,
through a million different pairs,
give me a million different dimensions
of this world, that I see.

List of Confessions

Photo by  Álvaro Serrano  on  Unsplash One, You should try writing a love letter to yourself, I have written one to myself, it took me 17 years to complete it, that's also how long it took  for me to decide  if I loved myself. Two, I believe that the heart is flat  in our minds, that's why it is so easy to  rekindle a wound and also why  everything is just a finger's distance from healing. Three, I forgot my own phone number at a cafe coffee day counter, she kept repeating  the first few numbers that I had uttered without giving me space to think, maybe we are all her  when it comes to counting our mistakes. Four, I have a thing for languages, both for those I understand and those that I don't,  I would listen to hours and hours of urdu poetry  without knowing what it meant, maybe that is also one kind of silence. Five, I have thought too often about  what I would name myself  if not for what I have been named, everyt...

CELEBRATE YOURSELF

I have a child in me who fears isolation. I have a villain in me who is a prejudiced idiot. I have a lass in me who wishes to look beautiful  always . I have a genius in me who yearns to achieve . I have a dreamer in me who wishes to unleash reality. I have a joker in me who adds humour to every cell . I have a fool in me who complicates simple things. I have a saint in me who controls the rest of them. I have a god in me , who loves to touch lives . All of them share the same space presenting themselves in a myriad of forms. Yet,I am no perfectionist, I commit mistakes. But, I am myself and enjoy being that way. You too are a multi- coloured soul, Celebrate your uniqueness, Celebrate yourself!                              - (c) Vasanthi

Faces That I Remember

Rowing through the spirals of memories that stalk my life, I squish, swirl and stumble as I see myself flipping through the pages  of the million people I remember. One of them was a woman, who grabbed a random kid  running in the corridor  and said “I loved the way you laughed today”. A minute later I saw that kid walk away with a smile on his face. A teacher, she was. Handled none of my classes but taught me something that was way beyond books, chalks and blackboards. There was a young girl the other day who wouldn’t take her eyes off the window. “Is it the chocolate shop that you’re looking at?“ I ask and she says “no, I’m looking at that raindrop that is yet to dry”. and all I could do, was smile. Yet another day  I saw a guy run,  as though he was running a race, all alone. But later I realized  that he had seen an old friend, walk across the road and all he wanted to do was make up for the time he lost. These are just a few among the many w...
