One Fine Day

Movies, Hollywood movies, Hollywood romantic movies to be more particular and that too from the 90s and early 2000s. They had their own charm, didn't they ? They still have that charm. Just like Jab We Met still has its own place. Once upon a time, I had a lot of complaints from the Show Business but now I believe that it would have been impossible for me to survive without it. The fact of not knowing those characters, their persona would have created  that void I wouldn't have even realised about. Today is one such day I cherish them. I watched a movie called "Falling in Love" today. Meryl Streep, the queen of emotions and vulnerability and Robert De Niro, finest gentleman to exist on this planet. The movie made me realise why it was so difficult for me to fall in love. There are layers to love, infinite depths that have to be seen minutely by an overthinking heart. Anything transient to that doesn't hold my attention. People do talk about matching vibes and that first look and all of it and it's really correct because that does really happen but does it last? I have seen from my end, it doesn't. We move past it just as if it was an honest mistake. I even rewatched 500 days of Summer today, to really understand that movie. Second time is the real charm. It makes you introspect a lot of details you just moved past the first time. And maybe it's true that it really does feel easy with the person you love, just effortless, just effort without that really intention of an effort. And it's impossible to find in this rush,to find in the first go or even the fifth go. The process might drain you out but these movies they help in restoring the faith, that hope which I never give up on. I don't know why I am writing down all of this. Watched One Fine Day even, that movie has my heart. Maybe it's true that the first time isn't the real charm.

Growth

You can't feel how far you have come until you look back once in a while. You can't for sure quantify growth but you can really see the difference. October really made me see into my personal growth this month. The month started with going to Delhi all by myself to see places which I had gone to in my childhood. Re-visiting all the places to which lot of good memories were associated with. Safdarjung tomb, Humayun's Tomb, Sundar Nursery all great places bound with historical references that my father once used to teach me. Going all the way in public transports that too in Delhi felt a little scary until and unless it was done especially with my tendency to doze off at places. But yep I managed to keep myself awake and cautious and walk and see and go and meet and everyhing I had thought about doing. Then comes the Baroda part. The homecoming started on a sad note with my mother and brother in the hospital and the so long awaited trip getting cancelled but then it was all g...

Life lately

This is kind of a personal diary entry of the last few weeks. So I would be starting with the fact that yes these last few weeks have been the best time of this year. Last year this same time I was so heartbroken, I was so not in the right mind, right mood but it's true everything passes, sooner or later everything does. And it did. Probably the best part of 2024 happened and we all know good things involve people. I had one of the nicest Durga Pooja after such a long time. Nobody had got sick, no dengue, no guy problems, complete peace of mind. I dressed up nicely, ate good food, had one of the best times teasing my brother and getting teased by him. I had one of the nicest conversations with my friend who is not my age but we trauma bonded and it just made me realise why I am this kind of person a little more intensely. I was even talking to a guy for the past few weeks and wow I have felt inspired and motivated after such a long time. I even fixed my sleep schedule and study sch...

Hormonally Possessed

When does loneliness really hit ? Is it just before going to sleep, or while travelling by train or while suddenly watching something which you crave for and yet can't get. I don't know why it has been like this but loneliness feels like a companion that's resting on my shoulder as I try to cope up with the day. I might be functioning at high productivity but still there's some part of me that I realise isn't getting satisfaction from the grill. I need to find a new coping mechanism. Somehow what has worked for so many months isn't working out at the moment. I don't know maybe I am not well thays why, or maybe it's just something I need to detox from. I was just crying out of the blue, I even insisted my best friend to let's open a dating app. I was legit feeling the absence of something I craved and at the same time didn't want.  This is all I felt on Saturday. No wonder I got my period. It all makes sense. Hormonally possessed I was. It started...
