My Grieving Refrainment!

-

 

Figure 1. An endless ocean of crowd.


This is my grieving refrainment!


Would you like to take a ride through it?

Would you like to dive deep into it?

Would you like to listen close to it,

when I whisper, low-key, fluttering my eyelids?


I see the crowd, but refrain from being seen. 

I hear voices, but refrain from being heard. 

I follow the footsteps, but refrain from being followed by.                    


I have felt stories, but refrain from spitting out mine.

I have encountered phonies, but refrain from admitting one.

I have known places, but refrain from calling one home of mine.


I have sensed the depth, but refrain from jumping in.

I have surrendered against time, but refrain from drowning in.

I have trespassed spaces, but refrain from walking in.


I can feel the golden pixie dust glow, but refrain from flying away with it.

I can infer my dreams transforming into reality, but refrain from sleeping tight with it.

I can smell the frozen winter's arrival, but refrain from getting along with it.


This is my grieving refrainment!


Would you like to take a ride through it?

Would you like to dive deep into it?

Would you like to listen close to it,

when I whisper , low-key, fluttering my eyelids?

  It's better to think radically. However, it's much better to act responsibly. A popular dictum proposed by Rene Descartes (father of Modern Western Philosophy), asserts, "Cogito Ergo Sum" (I think, therefore, I am). Here, 'thinking' precedes 'existence'. To become able enough to think, to imagine, to introspect, and to retrospect, is highly significant for a better living.  If not for a better living, then might be for developing better decision-making abilities. If not for better decision-making abilities, then might be for cultivating the habit of exploring infinite possibilities of our world or say, human existence.  However, periodically, all our thinking becomes futile. This happens, when we do it too often, without taking into account the requisite measures. This is when we become rigid towards new scopes or paradigm shifts in life. So, this very phenomenon is, what is summed up as 'overthinking'. Of course, there could be 'n' n

'Fear and Doubt' : The Best Teachers Ever.

💁🏻‍♀️Every time, we open social media, we come across people sharing and celebrating their achievements and accomplishments. However, is life all about golds, pearls and diamonds? Ofcourse! Not. There is so much more to life (the not-so colorful part of it). It is very seldom to see people voicing out about their struggles or their pain points, quite openly. The entire hook is; ‘Celebrating our Highs is as Significant as Embracing our Lows’.  Life is not solely about just one static phase or moment. Rather life is a streamline of moments just like a river, flowing on and off perpetually. It is dynamic in nature and is always moving towards a certain kind of 'change'. Just by observing our mother nature, one could possibly realize and understand the 'how'.   We must learn to cherish our lows because they represent and shape our overall journey towards our goals. They build us to think and act more like a well-rounded person. They make us a little wiser. They teach us t

Your Surroundings Do Matter A Lot

  Not expressing everything you know is also a part of wisdom. Sometimes you have to wait for the right stage and the right audience that would truly acknowledge your talent. This is why having the right platform becomes a major thing in life.  Always remind yourself these Five Chief Keystrokes ; 🍁 Be there, where your voice is heard. 🍁 Be there, where your words are welcomed. 🍁 Be there, where your contributions are appreciated. 🍁 Be there, where your work is valued. 🍁 Be there, where your presence is celebrated.  Because your Surroundings do Matter a Lot more than your Talent does. ~Varsha Rout
