The word itself rings a lot of bells, doesn’t it? Love. The emotion we can’t avoid in life. How can we? The second we were born, that is the emotion we have first experienced. That is the first time we cried to make everyone else celebrate. A great man says, “Love is not an emotion. It is your very existence.” It touched me in a thousand dimensions. Deep and subtle, but inevitably true. Nothing moves in the world without love. Well, there are a thousand flavours of love, but retracting back from every emotion, the source is always love. We feel misery. Behind misery is desire and behind that desire is love. Love can be with different names, different tags, different feelings and associations. But it sure is the same love. When that very love turns into a feeling to experience, it gets us to the top of the world. It makes us cherish every single moment. It makes us jump and dance in joy. It makes us do anything and everything to keep it alive. We feel as strong as a warrior who can ...

What is not uncertain in life? You never know when you are going to leave your body and say good bye to the world. The person who was your enemy yesterday can become an amazing friend to you today. Just think about it. Did we ever imagine that we will be saving the world today just by sitting in our homes!? Absolutely not. Know it or not, the only certain thing about life is uncertainty. You never can predict the next moment. You never know the next step of your path. You never know what your mind will be occupied with after an hour or two. I sleep with a lot of plans for the next day and wake up in the morning with a severe headache and it’s all gone. The uncertainty of life, the mystery of life, is the mechanics of life. In my journey through life, I learnt a few things. Either we can brood over the uncertainty or accept it and take it to its wholeness. There is a famous quote. “Do not try to calm the storm. Be there and let the storm pass.”    Just like that, all that we ...

Life is a blend of everything. A blend of love, relationships, purpose, hobbies, habits, tastes and preferences, likes and dislikes, dreams and reality, people, places and other stuff like emotions, feelings and other components that makes us human in the individual level. Remove any one of these components from life and life will start to feel incomplete. This quarantine period actually hit my mind hard and made me really think about it. What do I want in my life? What do I really want in life, from life? Is it a bright future I aspire for? Is it a career? Is it my lifestyle? Is it a life filled with love? Is it a passion? A purpose? A life filled with memories? A life filled with money? A life in which I break all my barriers? Or, is it going to be something where I search for the eternal purpose of like a saint? Every single component that makes life is linked with the other, whether it is visible to our naked analysis and observation or not. I cannot say I started finding ...

The only thing that never changes in this world is change. Until and unless we realise this, we can never be at peace. Something that had been bothering you yesterday does not exist today. Something bigger or smaller would have already taken its place for that matter. Anyway, just look at yourself now. How were you three years ago? How were you five years ago? For better or worse, things changed, or rather, you did. You never know where life leads you. Which new version of yours it demands. The new faces you see now in your daily life whom you never even thought would become an important part of you life when you met them! Your new hobbies, new passions in life, new goals. But there is this thing from the very beginning that holds on so strong to its instincts. It is something that never lies to you. It keeps its connections so strong and holds on to something that connects with it. Old or new, easy or hard, convincing or compelling, directing or distracting, elevating or entertain...
