Random Blabbering

As I am writing this, sitting by my desk, I have innumerable things beside me. A just-empty glass of Apple-juice, my phone , a golden tape, some papers lying haphazardly…..the list goes on! Shows that I am a messy person. Actually I am both…I like organization…like my almirah n all- I don’t let anyone open it.
I am writing today partly because I feel I have been away from writing or blogging for long on account of My sister’s wedding (and also nothing was coming to mind as to what to write) and partly because my Friend has asked lot many times to keep writing. Its not that my mind is out of ideas or thoughts that I won’t like to take down on paper but as they say…their frequency is lot more than the total time required to open PC and start typing. Though I sometimes do write in diary as well, but there is nothing worthy of sharing in this space. Those all are my random thoughts which I start with sentences and then end up with doodling all over the page.
Most of the time these days, I am reading books. I also attended a blogger meet last week which was a hell lot of fun. I am truly thankful to Indiblogger-meets for a lot of things-the changes they have brought to me.  I am not doing anything career-wise which should make a lot of difference to me but for some reason is not. I feel my priorities have changed. My whole outlook on life has changed. It would be too early to say anything now but I have surely changed in many ways or I should rather put it like my thinking has surely changed in many ways.
How life changes? It feels like I am suddenly 22 and relatives all over are saying – oh! So U’re next!! For marriage! Not that I hate it but I have A LOT to do before I’ll finally settle down. I cant even think about it. I still am , okay not a kid, a youngster who has dreams, hopes, aspirations. Perhaps I cant name them right now. Can’t tell properly what I want but then I am looking.
I love the lines of Steve Jobs which says, “ Do what you feel is great work and the only way to do great work is do what you love. If you haven’t find it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all the matters of heart, you’ll know when u find it.”
Feels like enough for today or I would come in that deep philosophical mood. :P

    Haha! Oh Priya. Glad you wrote something. :D Random posts come out best. ;)

    And hello? To all relatives who say, "you're next". Please haan! It's too soon to even think about. Wishing you all the very best for finding out what clicks. It may just be right around the corner, or far away, but you just focus on going with the flow. That's the best way. :D

    Keep writing!! :D
    PS- Write something about your sister's marriage. We would love to know more about it ;)

    Nicely written! That Steve Jobs' quote was amazing and so in sync with your state of mind. It's okay Priya, with time you'll know things and you know the right moves for the same also! But yeah, you should not settle and keep hunting. :)

    Very nice. Your Steve Job quote is appropriate. Some day you will find it. And, when you find it what will you do? Here is another Steve Job quote for that also:

    "I think if you do something and it turns out pretty good, then you should go do something else wonderful, not dwell on it for too long. Just figure out what’s next".

For Love (Or Not) Of Books...

I remember the time in 2012, January or February, when I began reading , I was so hungry for books. I would spend the whole day reading. And the books I read then, I still remember the story, some lines even today. I used to have at the most three unread books at a time, not starting a book until I was done with the one I was reading. I might not have read many , but that was better. Slowly I developed a mania, not exactly of reading but of purchasing and collecting. Collecting books is a hobby, even an obsession but I am not against that. But I am against piling up unread books one over the other onto the bookshelf. It’s a pure disregard. Or may be it doesn't work for me! I just hate my bookshelf these days. It’s having so many good books yet I am not reading any. In fact, even if I am reading, I have realised that it’s more to finish a book than to read. I am in the middle of four books this time. It sucks you know. Leave. So, no more purchases

This post is a part of  Write Over the Weekend , an initiative for  Indian Bloggers  by BlogAdda Chosen among the Loved posts!! "Again you are scribbling..Can't you put your nose off your books and papers for sometime?" my mother snaps at me as I scribble a poem. "Oh ma! Atleast listen to what I wrote" "Hmm...tell" "Ahmm ahmm" I pretend to clear my throat and My mum laughs back. "Will you open your mouth or should I go back to kitchen?" "Oh!No-no please!" I say quickly and grab her by elbow. Who doesn't want audience? ;) Listen," Life's unpredictable, Can't say when it would take a turn. We can't really say, When life might be deprived of all fun. It's true, What elders say, You should know to walk alone; No matter  Come what may. She smiles and looks at me for some time curiously. "You write well and what you've written is indeed true."

*FICTION* I was going through all the messages and chats we had shared just a month back. How things change I wonder!! Re-reading them was like going through many emotions. Those lines still gave me the same smile, same laughter the way they had given me a month before or so. Though yes, this time, those were accompanied by a li'l sadness and a wish. A part of me still wished if it could be continued, if we could take it further. A wish that at least it should not have ended so abruptly like this. He thought for a while and thought about calling her. Perhaps he could change this. There was no point in continuing but he was feeling a turbulence inside him. He had always felt something different about her. After his previous relationship which ended on a bitter note, he came across somebody different. The reason why they became friends and then why he chose to end everything were unknown to him. It started all of a sudden and then ended. He knew he had his 'be pract
