Start a new life

By


It all started when I started dreaming, and the day I started dreaming about my bright future came much long after a dark night which I believed was destined to never leave my back, till the time I am alive. I had once given up all hopes to have a bright future, but I got the much needed motivation, only because of what I write. I write not only to pursue my passion, it is more of my need.  The day I do not write, I am always filled with so heavy guilt and heaviness.
How I started my new life?
This question goes back to July 2014. It was a time, when I had completed my graduation. I used to write for a hobby and had recently started to write professionally as a content writer as a freelancer, but the major break came through a new hope, I got when I got an opportunity to participate in a short story contest. That contest promised what I had in my mind. I wanted to get published as a writer, the hopes of which I had accumulated recently. I felt like my life had only one hope left. Because I had nothing to lose then. I lost my parents due to medical illness, the remorse of which I am still till date not able to overcome, and from that time I had started making my dreams die one by one, and made my life an eternal dark cave, but somehow life approached me once again when I got hold of this contest, I knew what I wanted to do, because my friend group appreciated my writings, and till that point, the creative writer in me was much of a personal affair. I wished to give a jump start to my career and my experiment, and I felt that if I got published, my dream would start once again. And I participated in it, and as the results came, I got the best news of my life in ages, I got chosen to be featured in the anthology, and thus began a journey, which made me start my new life. I was thus made to dream once again of a bright future. And I had made a firm resolve, now to break all the obstacles, which had been hindering my movement to a new life. Earlier, I was always afraid to take a bold step, to step out in the world, all alone to listen to my heart and to pursue what I wished, but this small success made me confident, and I left behind all what I had, all my belongings, all relations, all what I had known to be mine. All I believed that time was that only I am my own, and nothing else matters. And thus I packed my bag one day, and without informing anyone, I moved myself, all the way to Delhi. I had long dreamed of starting a new life from scratch, forgetting all that which have caused me pain. I do not want to disclose what all hurt me in my previous life, but my move to Delhi, to pursue my passion in Delhi, was something which I can say to be a second birth, a second life, which had been a gift from my side, to my own personality. Today, I have a job, and feel myself completely happy and satisfied for the decision I took and am happy that I started a new life, and taking a bold step to change what I did not like.

How corporate professionalism helped me in learning the art of self-appreciation?

By
It’s been a long while that I wrote something for myself. Though being a full-time content writer, busy in playing with words all day long, who people think of as a word-wizard- never short of something to write, I have, of late, fell short of words to define what I feel about my passion. I started off as a content writer & still, I am that- it’s not that my passion has faded, it is still strong and growing every day, still I sometimes feel I am not doing much for myself. Writing every day for brands and companies- fuelling their aspirations to grow more and more through advertisements, e-mailers, marketing collaterals, etc., I have somehow felt guilty of not helping myself much with my growth journey. But is it my fault… or is it just situational? I am not the type who shifts the blame to professional or personal condition, so I take it upon myself for my mistake. I have not been much serious about my journey, passion and efforts. But through my realization, I came up wit...

On a path to glory

By
I have been lost before. in a pool of confusions, that delve inside my head. I have been lost before, in a tide of self-doubt, that crept inside my heart.. I have been lost before, in the guilt of underperforming I have been lost before, at nights with unstoppable mourning Through the years I learned, it does not matter If I am lost, I will surely be found And if no one finds me, I myself will one day walk past this maze To do something worthwhile and to amaze All those who laughed at the time when I was lost All those who created a sense of self-doubt, who made me face this ghost I have learned that the fears are just inside All we have is a beautiful world with opportunities, that is real and is outside So, I rise again from this pool of confusion, Yes I rise again from this guilt and emotion, I know am hard at heart when it comes to the topic of self-achievement But what is an achievement, without a little attitude All I want you is to kno...

Yuun to mein - Hindi Poem

By
After days of being in solitude and calm, my mind took inspiration from these famous lines and my pen started working to complete a piece in the form of a poem.  ' Yuun to mein tanhaa hi tha safar mein Log judte gye karwaan banta gya….' Kuch mili apni si shaksiyatein Aur unke hi sahare me aage bdhta gaya… Sikha mene bahut iss safar mein… Naa jaane kyu fir bhi me pichadta gya… Jo sath nibhate chale sang mere… Unse hi me zindagi jeena sikhta gya… Ek aasra mil sa gya tha uss karvaan ki chaav mein Aisa laga jaise hu mein samundar ko cheerti naav mein Jaana tha naa mene tab Ki ye karvaan bhi chhalava sa hai Is kaarvaan ka sahara sabko hai Par apna yha koi na hai Khud par shaq to kabhi na tha Kabiliyat par ek anjana sa yakin sat ha Koshish ko apni kamm na karunga Apni manzil ko rahunga me dhundhta Kal ko ye kaarvaan rahe na rahe sang mere Manzil ko apni mein paake rahunga Koi ho ya na ho sang sath dene ko Sukoon ki chaav me ek...
