Ever wondered?

Biology determines much of the way we live. From the moment we’re born, we know how to breathe and eat. As we grow older, new instincts kink in…

We become territorial. 

We learn to compete.

We seek shelter. 

Sometimes biology can turn on us, though. 

Yeah, biology sucks sometimes. 


Biology says that we are who we are from birth, that our DNA is set in stone, unchangeable.


Our DNA doesn’t account for all of us, though. We’re humans, life changes us. 


We develop new traits. 


Become less territorial. 


We stop competing. 


We learn from our mistakes. 


We face our greatest fears. 


For better or worse, we find ways to become more than our biology.

The risk, of course… is that we can change too much… to the point, we don’t recognize ourselves. Finding our way back can be difficult. There’s no compass, no map. We just have to close our eyes, take a step, and hope that we’ll get there. 


Screw the odds, screw the science! Let’s just live. Whatever happens… happens. 


———— no, it doesn’t. Does- - does it? It doesn't. 


We all want to grow up. We are desperate to get there, to grab all the opportunities we can... To live!

We're so busy trying to get out of that nest... We don't think about the fact that it's going to be cold out there... 

Really freakin’ cold. 

Because growing up sometimes means leaving people behind. 

And by the time we stand on our own two feet...

We're standing there alone…


Phew, being a hero has its price (:

    I am one among those who can understand what you have written :) I too believe that change is always good. Some times it teaches us lessons of life, sometimes we grow, sometimes we discover things, sometimes we fail completely. Irrespective of the result we should try things, yes! we should try! and learn to progress.

Insignificant yet Overvalued....

[4 min read] Well, it’s Ava and Ella’s birthday today…. Pause...Pause…. Oh wait! Before we talk further about their day, let’s explore a little bit about their parent’s profession. It’s basically an ancestral occupation, oh yeah this sounds surprising in this era, but yes they own a store named DIA, and they are the art dealers, so cool, isn’t it? Out of many sub-jobs that DIA is involved in, a part of the business is dedicated to painting, I’m a passionate artist, I wonder that’s the reason why I’m more focused on the painting side of DIA! well, wonders apart, the most interesting part about DIA is that they use 23 specially designed brushes for any orders they get. The number 23 instantly grabbed my attention, lol, it’s because I was born on 23rd ;) anyone else? Oops, back to DIA! To appreciate the uniqueness of this place, I surely want to dive a little deep into its making. So, the brushes have an unusual threadlike three-dimensional arrangement of stones in the form of a chain, pe

[5 min read] It was an ancient building that is doric, redbrick, and detached. Definitely it’s one of the handsome and high-rise erection that I came across in recent times... Kinda similar to this erection, but not quite. I was in a palatial hall kind of room, and I am working there for my boss, Mark Clouse. Well, I was coding, it took shape, so I wanted to show that to my boss and wind up with the day. In the massive hall, I am onto one corner, well-appointed, and he is onto another corner sitting on his bossy chair and doing his work, although the hall is beautiful, his corner often seemed stark. I stood, held my files in my hands those which I’m supposed to show him, started walking to another corner, and when I approached him I didn’t feel good, it’s a feeling that’s hard to articulate, which is in itself profoundly eerie, but then since he’s my boss and I’m reporting to him, I just maintained professionalism. When I’m almost near he greeted me with a grin on his face, I

Bit off more than I could chew ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It’s ~2:40 AM and the only line that’s racing in my head over and over again is “Please, Time! Pause, just Pause.... Forever”. Although our car is moving at a fair speed I sensed an utter silence while my right hand’s in my mom’s arm, my left in my dad’s. There are quietness and nothing, yes, nothing, my lips didn’t dare to open even a bit, my eyes wide open but denied responding to the silvery moon that’s dotted on the dark blue night sky, never mind, my hands didn’t bother to even feel my parents touch! I was affectless and however, every passing second terrified me that we are getting more nearer to the airport! Yes, WE are on our way to the airport, and YES, I am on my way to the USA, although it’s my decision to leave my parents, when the weeks, days, hours, and minutes approached, I became more and more doubtful about my decision. I was clueless about what I decided for my coming years. Gradually, I failed to express my feelings even during situations that would normally be expec
