Tee Bee Ech



I have seen the same Sun giving out the same sunshine for 18 years now but when it comes to the Sun(s) that light(s) my life up, I don't think I can name only one anymore.

Whoever barely knows me will be able to tell you that I'm not too fond of my family simply because they aren't supporting enough. My dad and I have always had a love-hate relationship and I seriously don't think that's ever changing. The other half of my family lives in Vizag so there's that. However, I don't think I can thank my lucky stars enough for my mother and my dog. They are the two Suns of my life. 


If I were brought up with only my dad as the parent, I think I'd turn out to be a cold hearted asshole for my dad has a different outlook towards everything. He just doesn't feel or react the way a normal person does and there is no end to our fights. As a result, I've always maintained my distance with him. However, thanks to my mother, I've turned out to be just about alright and I'm immensely thankful for it because she's so caring, gentle and sweet that it's unimaginable. 

As a child, I thought it was very uncool of my mother to work at home unlike the mothers of my friends as she'd always be there to hinder every action of mine. Soon enough, I realized that the aforementioned word should've been 'guide' and not 'hinder'. Guiding me through every stage of life, I think it's safe to say she's devoted her entire adult life to me. Mothers do work in a very unusual way, for I don't even remember asking her for it.
I don't think I'm ever showing her this post so it's just for you to know- if you ever find goodness in me, it's probably a quarter of what my mother has instilled in her.

As far as Theodore is concerned, I think I've summed up his impact on my life more than just once. This perpetual hyped up breed of two long-ass ears is a total sweetheart. Even though he has been in my life for only a year and a half, he has helped me grow in unintentional and uncountable ways.

I don't think I'm ever teaching my dog the English alphabets so it's just for you to know-  if you ever find my face to be sweaty, it's probably just saliva.

Peace.

Why I write

My reason behind joining this platform was simply to find ideas, and I’m sure this is partly due to the fact that it’s the very subtitle of this platform. 😬 But I assure you, if you were in my place, you’d believe me. I’m a 20-year-old and I’ve been hooked on to this habit of writing longer than anything else. On one hand, I don’t want to corrupt this habit by pressuring myself to write (you know, if I were to be a writer or something) but on the other hand, I want to share my thoughts with people because nothing makes me happier than when people come to me and tell me that they connect with my stories/thoughts/feelings. It makes me feel like I’m a part of a community- this intangible community of people who find themselves at their weakest quite often and tend to write about what they feel during those times. Anyway, joining this platform was perhaps the first step towards something great- I can feel it. Although I sometimes wish one could pay me for doing it. (Lately, I’ve been gett...

Changes

It's 3pm, on a lazy Saturday afternoon and the Sun's about to set and the only thing I can think of is this change- the change I've been through the past few months. The Sun goes back and emerges the same way every day. It goes home, unlike me. Setting foot in this new, cold country was challenging, obviously. Leaving so much behind, it was more than just starting a new phase in my life. Sleeping without Theo was tough, not seeing familiar faces in the morning was tough. Finding out that cereals are actually quite expensive was tough. I remember the first day- I cut myself while opening a package and not having packed bandages, I cried at the thought of having to manage my life with my useless self. Not knowing how to cook and never having done laundry, I'd traveled miles away from home thinking it was all about getting a better education. It was not. It was about changing my life altogether. At first, it was relieving to see brown faces. It gave me bursts of joy...

India's Fucked

I haven't read a book in the last 3 years as far as I can recall. It's really sad because at one point, instead of investing my time in video games, I'd thrive on books. However, I decided to start a book called 'The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck' and this time, I plan on finishing it. I highly recommend this book, by the way. It's awesome. As much as this book teaches me to save my fucks and not to give too much of a fuck to anything, I have too much time in hand and too many fucks left to give, so here's my rant. I live in a country where reading about rape cases has become a regular thing. And there are some cases which are just.. bewildering. In the wildest of one's dreams wouldn't one be able to imagine such a mishap happening. Major channels have stopped covering these stories because  who cares? Another day, another story.  I live in a country where the current government is failing on its commitment to win the trust of ...
