Dear Mr. Vincent, I am aware that you no longer reside in this universe of ours. I have been quite fascinated with your life ever since I listened to a song by Don McLean. The song was about you, and in that song I found stark similarities between you and I. I'm sure most of… Continue reading An Open Letter to Vincent Van Gogh
Moving On Without An Apology
Moving on without an apology is tough. There's so much grief in the process. It keeps you up at night making you wonder what you could have done to save your relationship. I often wonder whether it was me because of whom the relationship ended. I have been gaslighted once or twice because of which… Continue reading Moving On Without An Apology
Self-respect starts with Self-acceptance
Do you ever wonder about self-respect? As humans we are expected to carry ourselves with respect. As a kid I always wondered what that meant. Those two words self and respect. I knew what respect meant. But I sincerely had no concept of self. How can I begin to respect myself when I don't even… Continue reading Self-respect starts with Self-acceptance

Modern Love
So recently I came across this television show called 'Modern Love'. It's about 8 different amazing stories about love. I noticed every story had its edge of platonic romance. Being a lovesick fool myself, I couldn't help but cry my heart out by the end of the show. It wasn't extraordinarily romantic. No, it wasn't… Continue reading Modern Love

End is just the beginning!
As the shades of peach and tangerine illuminated the blue sky As the winds of autumn whispered me goodbye As the waves shimmered like floating pieces of gold As the sea gulls screeched their way back home As the toe-nail shaped moon hovered its way to the dark As the north star glimmered with a… Continue reading End is just the beginning!
The Beauty of Beauty
Someone once asked me, to tell him something beautiful. I looked up and pondered for a while. My answer was just a word. Everything. A smile crawled across his face, dismissing the question. If only he knew what everything meant to me. Too vague a question for too vast an answer. It would take me… Continue reading The Beauty of Beauty
